In graph theory and computer science, NP-Complete problems are a group of problems that are very hard to solve. These problems share two important features: first, it is easy to check if a solution is correct once you have it (that's what NP means), and second, if you could solve ...
This is a list of some of the more commonly known problems that are NP-complete when expressed as decision problems. As there are hundr

In NP, NP-complete problems are the set of all decision problems whose solutions can be easily verified in polynomial time on a non-deterministic turing machine. A problem P in NP is considered as the NP-complete if all other problems can be converted or minimized into P in polynomial time...

NP-hard Problem:对于这一类问题,用一句话概括他们的特征就是“at least as hard as the hardest problems in NP Problem”, 就是NP-hard问题至少和NP问题一样难。 NP-complete Problem:对于这一类问题,他们满足两个性质,一个就是在polynomial时间内可以验证一个candidate answer是不是真正的解,另一个性质就是我...
This means, if L1 <= L2, then L1 is not more than a polynomial factor harder than L2. Which is why the “less than or equal to” notation for reduction is mnemonic. NP complete are the problems whose status are unknown. Some of the examples of NP complete problems are:...

One of the typical examples of NP-Complete problems is that of the "commercial traveler". It is for this problem that we propose an algorithm of linear complexity to find at first sight the ideal solution, knowing that it is established that if an NP-complete problem has a solution (...
