As an example, we show that the Ising model on the Mbius ladder graph is 'easy' for Ising machines. By rewiring the Mbius ladder graph to random 3-regular graphs, we probe an intermediate computational complexit
Because NP-class problems are so pervasive (even sudoku puzzles and airline-schedule searches on Bing.com are computationally “hard”), innovative workarounds are constantly being discovered. Stochastic optimization, for example, mimics the randomness found in physical systems (such as cooling metals ...

The class PNP, or Δ2p (or sometimes simply Δ2), or PNP[nO(1)], or even ∪k≥0PNP[nk], denotes the set of decision problems that can be solved by applying a subprogram able to solve a problem belonging to NP a polynomial (still with respect to the size n of the data) number...
Informally, a problem is in the class NPC-and we refer to it as being NP-complete-if it is in NP and is as "hard" as any problem in NP.如果任何一个NPC问题可以在多项式时间内解决,则每一个NPC的问题都有一个多项式时间的算法。多数搞理论研究的计算机科学家认为,NPC问题是难处理的,因为迄今...

SAT is considered to be the first and the foremost problem that was proven to be NP-complete. This implies that all problems in the class NP, which considers a broad range of natural decision and optimization problems, are at most as difficult to solve as SAT. ...
