The k-edge-connectivity augmentation problem with multipartition constraints (kECAM for short) is defined by “Given an undirected graph G = (V, E) and a multipartition π = {V1, . . . , Vr} of V with Vi ∩ Vj = ∅ for ∀i, j ∈ {1, . . . , r} (i ≠ j), find an edge set E' of minimum cardinality, consisting of edges that connect distinct members of π, such that G' = (V, E ∪ E') is k-edge-connected.”In this paper, we propose a fast algorithm for finding a solution to (σ+1)ECAM when G is σ-edge-connected (σ > 0), and show that the problem can be solved in linear time if σ ∈ {1, 2}. The main idea is to reduce (σ + 1)ECAM to the bipartition case, that is, (σ+1)ECAM with r = 2. Moreover, we propose a parallel algorithm for finding a solution to (σ + 1)ECAM, when a structural graph F(G) which represents all minimum cuts of G is given and σ is odd.
