Reducing path TSP to TSP

V Traub, J Vygen, R Zenklusen - Proceedings of the 52nd Annual ACM …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
We present a black-box reduction from the path version of the Traveling Salesman Problem
(Path TSP) to the classical tour version (TSP). More precisely, we show that given an α …

SDN-based traffic aware placement of NFV middleboxes

W Ma, J Beltran, Z Pan, D Pan… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2017 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Network function virtualization (NFV) enables flexible deployment of middleboxes as virtual

Effective-resistance-reducing flows, spectrally thin trees, and asymmetric TSP

N Anari, SO Gharan - 2015 IEEE 56th Annual Symposium on …, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We show that the integrality gap of the natural LP relaxation of the Asymmetric Traveling
Salesman Problem is polyloglog (n). In other words, there is a polynomial time algorithm that …
