摘要
We show that there is no deterministic local algorithm (constant-time distributed graph algorithm) that finds a (7 - epsilon)-approximation of a minimum dominating set on planar graphs, for any positive constant epsilon. In prior work, the best lower bound on the approximation ratio has been 5 - epsilon; there is also an upper bound of 52.
