Let a connected undirected graph G  =  (V, E) be given. In the classical p-median problem we want to find a set X containing p points in G such that the sum of weighted distances from X to all vertices in V is minimized. We consider the semi-obnoxious case where every vertex has either a...

Let T = (V, E) be a tree. A core of T is a path P, for which the sum of the weighted distances from all vertices to this path is minimized. In this paper, we consider the semi-obnoxious case in which the vertices have positive or negative weights. We prove that, when the sum of the weights of...
