The max+sum spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree T* which makes the combined weight “max w(e)+Sum c(e) time” as small as possible, in which a weight w(e) and a cost c(e) are prescribed for each e ͼT. The problem can be solved in O(mlog n) time. In an inverse max+sum spanning tree problem, T0 is a given spanning tree of G, which is not an optimal max+sum spanning tree. Then we modify the weight vector w to w̅ so that T0 becomes a max+sum spanning tree. The goal is to minimize the modification cost ||w̅-w||under Hamming distance. This paper presents a new solution algorithm for the inverse max+sum spanning tree problem under weighted sum-type Hamming distance by modifying the max-weight vector with time complexity of O(mlog n) . First, we formulate the problem and then present a new solution algorithm for the problem under investigation. Finally, we present a numerical example to illustrate the efficiency of the algorithm.
