摘要
The minimum vertex ranking spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree of G whose vertex ranking is minimum. This problem is NP-hard and no polynomial time algorithm for solving it is known for non-trivial classes of graphs other than the class of interval graphs. This paper proposes a polynomial time algorithm for solving the minimum vertex ranking spanning tree problem on outerplanar graphs.
