Motivated by applications in wireless networks, we consider the following fundamental problem in wireless network design. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with edge costs and degree bounds $\\{r(v):v \\in V\\}$, the {\\sf Minimum-Power Edge-Multi-Cover} ({\\sf MPEMC}) problem is to find a minimum-power subgraph $J$ of $G$ such that the degree of every node $v$ in $J$ is at least $r(v)$. We give two approximation algorithms for {\\sf MPEMC}, wit"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1107.4893","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
