Complete Problems for Monotone NP
We show that the problem of deciding whether a digraph has a Hamiltonian path between two specified vertices and the problem of deciding whether a given graph has a cubic subgraph are complete for monotone NP via monotone projection translations. We also show that the problem of deciding whether a uniquely partially orderable (resp. comparability) graph has a cubic subgraph is complete for NP v...
متن کاملUsing Genetic Algorithms to Solve NP-Complete Problems
A strategy for using Genetic Algorithms (GAs) to solve NP-complete problems is presented. The key aspect of the approach taken is to exploit the observation that, although all NP-complete problems are equally difficult in a general computational sense, some have much better GA representations than others, leading to much more successful use of GAs on some NP-complete problems than on others. Si...
متن کاملOn Unapproximable Versions of NP-Complete Problems
We prove that all of Karp’s 21 original NP-complete problems have a version that is hard to approximate. These versions are obtained from the original problems by adding essentially the same simple constraint. We further show that these problems are absurdly hard to approximate. In fact, no polynomial-time algorithm can even approximate log(k) of the magnitude of these problems to within any co...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Attack on NP-complete Problems
Using the probability theory-based approach, this paper reveals the equivalence of an arbitrary NPcomplete problem to a problem of checking whether a level set of a specifically constructed harmonic cost function (with all diagonal entries of its Hessian matrix equal to zero) intersects with a unit hypercube in many-dimensional Euclidean space. This connection suggests the possibility that meth...
متن کاملNeural Networks for Np-complete Problems
combinatorial optimization is an active field of research in Neural Networks. Since the first attempts to solve the travelling salesman problem with Hopfield nets several progresses have been made. I will present some Neural Network approximate solutions for NP-complete problems that have a sound mathematical foundation and that, beside their theoretical interest, are also numerically encouragi...
