With the exception of a recent result presented at STOC 2022 for polynomially bounded edge weights, all almost- and near-linear time approximation schemes for transshipment relied on randomization to embed the problem instance into low-dimensional space. Our algorithm instead deterministically approximates the cost of routing decisions that would be made if the input were subject to a random tree embedding. To avoid computing the \(\Omega(n^2)\) vertex-vertex distances that an approximation of this kind suggests, we also limit the available routing decisions using distances explicitly stored in the well-known Thorup-Zwick distance oracle.
