A Better-Than-2 Approximation for Weighted Tree Augmentation

Abstract

We present an approximation algorithm for Weighted Tree Augmentation with approximation factor 1+ 2 + < 1.7. This is the first algorithm beating the longstanding factor of 2, which can be achieved through many standard techniques.
