Uniqueness of the shortest tree spanning a boundary in general position in the plane
Abstract:
In the paper the following result is presented: there exists an open everywhere dense subset U⊂R2n, such that any P∈U considered as an enumerated n-element subset of the standard Euclidean plane, is connected by unique Steiner minimal tree, i.e., a non-degenerate shortest tree.
