Expressing an NP-Complete Problem as the Solvability of a Polynomial Equation

چکیده

We demonstrate a polynomial approach to express the decision version of the directed Hamiltonian Cycle Problem (HCP), which is NP-Complete, as the Solvability of a Polynomial Equation with a constant number of variables, within a bounded real space. We first introduce four new Theorems for a set of periodic Functions with irrational periods, based on which we then use a trigonometric substitution, to show how the HCP can be expressed as the Solvability of a single polynomial Equation with a constant number of variables. The feasible solution of each of these variables is bounded within two real numbers. We point out what future work is necessary to prove that P=NP.

Polynomial solvability of $NP$-complete problems

A polynomial algorithm for solving the ”Hamiltonian circuit” problem is presented in the paper. Computational complexity of the algorithm is equal to O ( n log 2 n ) where n is the cardinality of the observed graph vertex set. Thus the polynomial solvability for NP -complete problems is proved.

Decision P Systems and the P!=NP Conjecture

In this paper we present the model of decision P systems with external output and prove the following main result: if there exists an NP–complete problem that cannot be solved in polynomial time, with regard to the input length, by the deterministic variant of such P systems, constructed in polynomial time, then P 6= NP . From Zandron-FerretiMauri’s theorem it follows that if P 6= NP then no NP...

Analysis of the Deterministic Polynomial Time Solvability of the 0-1-Knapsack Problem

Previously the author has demonstrated that a representative polynomial search partition is required to solve a NP-complete problem in deterministic polynomial time. It has also been demonstrated that finding such a partition can only be done in deterministic polynomial time if the form of the problem provides a simple method for producing the partition. It is the purpose of this article to dem...

M ay 2 00 8 Independence of P vs . NP in regards to oracle

Previously in “P is a proper subset of NP” [Meek Article 1, 2008] and “Analysis of the Deterministic Polynomial Time Solvability of the 0-1-Knapsack Problem” [Meek Article 2, 2008] the present author has demonstrated that some NP-complete problems are likely to have no deterministic polynomial time solution. In this article the concepts of these previous works will be applied to the relativizat...

Polynomial-Time Solvability of the Maximum Clique Problem

The maximum clique problem is known to be a typical NP-complete problem, and hence it is believed to be impossible to solve it in polynomial-time. So, it is important to know a reasonable sufficient condition under which the maximum clique problem can be proved to be polynomial-time solvable. In this paper, given a graph of vertices and whose maximum degree is , we prove that if is less than or...
