Structural Properties of the Held-Karp Bound In this section, we consider the Held-Karp lower bound [13, 14] for the traveling salesman problem. ...
Under this probabilistic model, the Held-Karp lower bound is proved to have a similar asymptotic behavior as the traveling salesman problem or the 2-connected network design problem. ...
Appendix 2: Proof of Theorem 9 Using Theorem 8, we need to construct a family of instances for which the ratio XZO is arbitrarily close to 2 (k=l Pk.Pk-1). Let cak = Pk for k = 1, . .,p-1. ...
