Given such an instance, construct an instance of Partition in which the input set contains the original set plus two elements: z 1 and z 2, with z 1 = sum(S) and z 2 = 2T. The sum of this input set is sum(S) + z 1 + z 2 = 2 sum(S) + 2T, so the target sum for Partition is sum(S) + T. Suppose there exists a solution S′ to the SubsetSum instance
This algorithm finds the greedy (LPT) solution first, but then proceeds to look for better solutions. Several additional heuristics can be used to improve the runtime: [2] In a node in which the current sum-difference is at least the sum of all remaining numbers, the remaining numbers can just be put in the smallest-sum subset.
The approximation ratio in this context is the smallest sum in the solution returned by the algorithm, divided by the smallest sum in the optimal solution (the ratio is less than 1). For greedy number partitioning, if the numbers are not sorted then the worst-case approximation ratio is 1/k. [11]
Conversely, given a solution to the SubsetSumZero instance, it must contain the −T (since all integers in S are positive), so to get a sum of zero, it must also contain a subset of S with a sum of +T, which is a solution of the SubsetSumPositive instance. The input integers are positive, and T = sum(S)/2.
A common special case called two-way balanced partitioning is when there should be two subsets (m = 2). The two subsets should contain floor(n/2) and ceiling(n/2) items. It is a variant of the partition problem. It is NP-hard to decide whether there exists a partition in which the sums in the two subsets are equal; see [4] problem [SP12]. There ...
In response, two class action lawsuits were filed. In September 2020, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a lower court’s injunction and permitted the TPS designation to be terminated.
