The travelling salesman problem (TSP) remains one of the most challenging NP‐hard problems in combinatorial optimisation, with significant implications for logistics, network design and route planning ...

A review of NP-Completeness and poly-time reductions; an introduction to randomized algorithms and the randomized complexity classes PP, RP, and BPP; an introduction to approximation algorithms for ...

In this paper, we establish hardness and approximation results for various Lp-ball constrained homogeneous polynomial optimization problems, where p ∈ [2, ∞]. Specifically, we prove that for any given ...

They have a mathematical, analog “solver” that can potentially find the best solution to NP-hard problems. NP-hardness is a theory of computational complexity, with problems that are famous for their ...

A separable assignment problem (SAP) is defined by a set of bins and a set of items to pack in each bin; a value, f, for assigning item j to bin i; and a separate packing constraint for each bin—i.e., ...
