Abstract

Given an undirected multigraph G = (V, E) and two positive integers ℓ and k, we consider the problem of augmenting G by the smallest number of new edges to obtain an ℓ-edge-connected and k-vertex-connected multigraph. In this paper, we show that the problem can be solved in Õ(mn2) time for any fixed ℓ and k = 3 if an input multigraph G is 2-vertex-connected, where n = |V| and m is the number of pairs of adjacent vertices in G.
