High-Level Overview of the Algorithm
We claim that if we could find the collection \left\lbrace I_1,\ldots ,I_z \right\rbrace of the intervals of the first row, a collection {\mathcal {Q}} of sub-grids of G, a coloring \chi :{\mathcal {Q}}\rightarrow \left\lbrace c_1,\ldots ,c_z \right\rbrace , and a subset {\mathcal {M}}^{\prime }\subseteq {\mathcal {M}}...

High-Level Overview of the Algorithm
The setup for the algorithm consists of three ingredients: (i) a hierarchical decomposition \tilde{\mathcal {H}} of the grid into square sub-grids (that we refer to as squares); (ii) a hierarchical partition {\mathfrak {I}} of the first row R^* of the grid into intervals; and (iii) a hierarchical coloring f of the squa...

A Hierarchical System of Squares
A hierarchical system \tilde{\mathcal {H}} of squares consists of a sequence {\mathcal {Q}}_1,{\mathcal {Q}}_2,\ldots ,{\mathcal {Q}}_{\rho } of sets of sub-grids of G. For each 1\le h\le \rho , {\mathcal {Q}}_h is a collection of disjoint sub-grids of G (that we refer to as level-h squares); every such square Q\in {\m...

A Hierarchical Partition of the Top Grid Boundary
Recall that R^* denotes the first row of the grid. A hierarchical partition {\mathfrak {I}} of R^* is a sequence {\mathcal {I}}_1,{\mathcal {I}}_2,\ldots ,{\mathcal {I}}_{\rho } of sets of sub-paths of R^*, such that for each 1\le h\le \rho , the paths in {\mathcal {I}}_h (that we refer to as level-h intervals) partiti...

Coloring the Squares and Selecting Demand Pairs to Route
The third ingredient of our algorithm is an assignment f of colors to the squares, and a selection of a subset of the demand pairs to be routed. For every level 1\le h\le \rho , for every level-h square Q\in {\mathcal {Q}}_h, we would like to assign a single level-h color c_h(I)\in \chi _h to Q, denoting f(Q)=c_h(I). I...

The Existence of the Ensemble
The intuition is that, if (s,t)\in {\mathcal {M}}^* is a demand pair whose source lies in the shadow of Q, and destination lies outside of D, then P(s,t) must cross the path P, as it needs to escape the disc D. Since path P is relatively short, only a small number of such demand pairs may exist. The main difficulty wit...

The Algorithm
Throughout, we assume that we know the value \mathsf {OPT} of the optimal solution; in order to do so, we simply guess the value \mathsf {OPT} (that is, we go over all such possible values), and run our approximation algorithm for each such guessed value. It is enough to show that the algorithm returns a factor-2^{O(\s...

Finding the Routing
Hence, portals of any pair of distinct squares are separated by at least 3 \cdot N(c_h) nodes from each other. Exploiting this spacing, it is now immediate to construct the child-snakes of the following five types (see Figure REF for illustration).The set of child-snakes of type A contains, for each child-color c_h^i o...

Stage 2: Ensuring that the Solution is Almost Feasible
In this stage, for each level 1\le h\le \rho and for each level-h color c_h\in \chi _h, we inspect the number of vertices in the solution U^{\prime } that we constructed at stage 1, whose level-h color is c_h. If this number is greater than 64d_h\log ^3n, then we say that color c_h has failed. In that case, we return a...

Approximating
In this section we complete the proof of Theorem REF . Suppose we are given an instance (G,{\mathcal {M}}) of Restricted NDP-Grid. We assume that we know the value \mathsf {OPT} of the optimal solution to this instance, by going over all such possible choices, and running the algorithm on each of them. Let \Gamma _1,\G...

Special Instances
It will be convenient for us to define special sub-instances of instance (G,{\mathcal {M}}), that have a specific structure. We start by defining interesting pairs of intervals.Definition. Let I,I^{\prime }\subseteq \Gamma be two disjoint intervals, and let d>0 be an integer. We say that (I,I^{\prime }) is a d-interest...
