Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the multicut problem in trees with submodular penalties, which generalizes the prize-collecting multicut problem in trees and vertex cover with submodular penalties. We present a combinatorial 3-approximation algorithm, based on the primal-dual scheme for the multicut problem in trees.
