چکیده
Example 1 Undirected Hamiltonian Path (UHP) and Undirected Hamiltonian Circuit (UHC) are the same problems as the corresponding problems for directed graphs, but the new problems are for undirected graphs. Claim 2 Given a polynomial time algorithm for Undirected Hamiltonian Path (UHP) there is a polynomial time algorithm for Directed Hamiltonian Path. 1. A DHP builds the triple (H, p, q), where H is an undirected graph, and p and q are vertices in H with the property that

R1-ttSN(NP) Distinguishes Robust Many-One and Turing Completeness
Do complexity classes have many-one complete sets if and only if they have Turingcomplete sets? We prove that there is a relativized world in which a relatively natural complexity class—namely a downward closure of NP, R 1-tt(NP)—has Turing-complete sets but has no many-one complete sets. In fact, we show that in the same relativized world this class has 2-truth-table complete sets but lacks 1-...
متن کاملAn Alternative proof of SAT NP-Completeness
We give a proof of SAT’s NP-completeness based upon a syntaxic characterization of NP given by Fagin at 1974. Then, we illustrate a part of our proof by giving examples of how two well-known problems, MAX INDEPENDENT SET and 3COLORING, can be expressed in terms of CNF. Finally, in the same spirit we demonstrate the min NPO-completeness of MIN WSAT under strict reductions.
متن کاملA Note on An NP - completeness Proof for Cryptographic Protocol Insecurity ∗
This article discusses the paper “Protocol insecurity with a finite number of sessions and composed keys is NP-complete” [1]. Some understanding of the paper is recorded in this article. Especially a non-trivial error of the NP proof of [1] is presented, and we provide a solution to fix this error. We suggest that the NP-completeness proof can be improved in several aspects. ∗ Research supporte...
متن کاملGeometric Complexity and Applications CIS 6930
In the first part of these notes, we study probabilistically checkable proof systems (PCPs) and look at the celebrated PCP theorem which provides a probabilistic characterization of the class NP. We use the PCP theorem to prove some hardness of approximation results. In the second part, we describe a type of reduction called L-reductions, which unlike the many-one polynomial-time reductions use...
متن کاملFms Structural Control and the Neighborhood Policy: Part 1 Correctness and Scalability
Structural Control Policies (SCP's) are real-time FMS operating policies that guarantee deadlock free operation. SCP's must be correct and scalable. A correct SCP guarantees deadlock free operation while a scalable (polynomial) SCP remains computationally tractable as FMS size increases. The NP-completeness of state safety (is there a sequence of state transitions leading to the empty state?) i...
