  2. Weak NP-completeness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_NP-completeness

    An example is the partition problem. Both weak NP-hardness and weak polynomial-time correspond to encoding the input agents in binary coding. If a problem is strongly NP-hard, then it does not even have a pseudo-polynomial time algorithm. It also does not have a fully-polynomial time approximation scheme. An example is the 3-partition problem.

    The hardest problems in PSPACE. PTAS: Polynomial-time approximation scheme (a subclass of APX). QIP: Solvable in polynomial time by a quantum interactive proof system. QMA: Quantum analog of NP. R: Solvable in a finite amount of time. RE: Problems to which we can answer "YES" in a finite amount of time, but a "NO" answer might never come. RL

  4. P versus NP problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem

    Informally, an NP-complete problem is an NP problem that is at least as "tough" as any other problem in NP. NP-hard problems are those at least as hard as NP problems; i.e., all NP problems can be reduced (in polynomial time) to them. NP-hard problems need not be in NP; i.e., they need not have solutions verifiable in polynomial time.

    Soon after it appeared, the book received positive reviews by reputed researchers in the area of theoretical computer science. In his review, Ronald V. Book recommends the book to "anyone who wishes to learn about the subject of NP-completeness", and he explicitly mentions the "extremely useful" appendix with over 300 NP-hard computational problems.

  7. NP (complexity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP_(complexity)

    Euler diagram for P, NP, NP-complete, and NP-hard set of problems. Under the assumption that P ≠ NP, the existence of problems within NP but outside both P and NP-complete was established by Ladner. [1] In computational complexity theory, NP (nondeterministic polynomial time) is a complexity class used to classify decision problems.

  9. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    The partition problem is NP hard. This can be proved by reduction from the subset sum problem. [6] An instance of SubsetSum consists of a set S of positive integers and a target sum T; the goal is to decide if there is a subset of S with sum exactly T.
