Given a set $P$ of $n$ red and blue points in the plane, a emph{planar bichromatic spanning tree} of $P$ is a spanning tree of $P$, such that each edge connects between a red and a blue point, and no two edges intersect. In the bottleneck planar bichromatic spanning tree problem, the goal is to find a planar bichromatic spanning tree $T$, such that the length of the longest edge in $T$ is minimized. In this paper, we show that this problem is NP-hard for points in general position. Moreover, we present a polynomial-time $(8sqrt{2})$-approximation algorithm, by showing that any bichromatic spanning tree of bottleneck $lambda$ can be converted to a planar bichromatic spanning tree of bottleneck at most $8sqrt{2}lambda$.
The geometric $delta$-minimum spanning tree problem ($delta$-MST) is the problem of finding a minimum spanning tree for a set of points in a normed vector space, such that no vertex in the tree has a degree which exceeds $delta$, and the sum of the l
We study four classical graph problems -- Hamiltonian path, Traveling salesman, Minimum spanning tree, and Minimum perfect matching on geometric graphs induced by bichromatic (red and blue) points. These problems have been widely studied for points i
We present time-space trade-offs for computing the Euclidean minimum spanning tree of a set $S$ of $n$ point-sites in the plane. More precisely, we assume that $S$ resides in a random-access memory that can only be read. The edges of the Euclidean mi
K{a}rolyi, Pach, and T{o}th proved that every 2-edge-colored straight-line drawing of the complete graph contains a monochromatic plane spanning tree. It is open if this statement generalizes to other classes of drawings, specifically, to simple draw
In this article, we consider a collection of geometric problems involving points colored by two colors (red and blue), referred to as bichromatic problems. The motivation behind studying these problems is two fold; (i) these problems appear naturally
