We consider a single-facility location problem in continuous space—here the problem of minimizing a sum or the maximum of the possibly weighted distances from a facility to a set of points of demand. The main result of this paper shows that every solution (optimal facility location) of this...

For a given set of nodes in the plane the min-power centre is a point such that the cost of the star centred at this point and spanning all nodes is minimised. The cost of the star is defined as the sum of the costs of its nodes, where the cost of a node is an increasing function of the length...
