We present a randomized polynomial time approximation scheme for Euclidean TSP in R/sup 2/ that is substantially more efficient than our earlier scheme (1996) (and the scheme of Mitchell (1996)). For any fixed c1 and any set of n nodes in the plane, the new scheme finds a (1+1/c)-approximation to the optimum traveling salesman tour in O(n(logn)/sup O(c)/) time. (Our earlier scheme ran in n/sup O(C)/ time.) For points in R/sup d/ the algorithm runs in O(n(logn)/sup (O(/spl radic/dc)/d-1)) time. This time is polynomial (actually nearly linear) for every fixed c, d. Designing such a polynomial-time algorithm was an open problem (our earlier algorithm (1996) ran in superpolynomial time for d/spl ges/3). The algorithm generalizes to the same set of Euclidean problems handled by the previous algorithm, including Steiner Tree, /spl kappa/-TSP, /spl kappa/-MST, etc, although for /spl kappa/-TSP and /spl kappa/-MST the running time gets multiplied by /spl kappa/. We also use our ideas to design nearly-linear time approximation schemes for Euclidean versions of problems that are known to be in P, such as Minimum Spanning Tree and Min Cost Perfect Matching. All our algorithms can be derandomized, though the running time then increases by O(n/sup d/) in R/sup d/. They also have simple parallel implementations (say, in NC/sup 2/).
