title = "Using petal-decompositions to build a low stretch spanning tree",
abstract = "We prove that any graph G=(V,E) with n points and m edges has a spanning tree T such that Σ (u,v)ε E(G)d T(u,v) = O(m log n log log n). Moreover such a tree can be found in time O(m log n log log n). Our result is obtained using a new petal-decomposition approach which guarantees that the radius of each cluster in the tree is at most 4 times the radius of the induced subgraph of the cluster in the original graph.",
