The Traveling Salesman Problem Under Squared Euclidean Distances
[article]
2010
arXiv
pre-print
We denote the traveling salesman problem under this distance function by TSP(d,α). ...
We also study the variant Rev-TSP of the problem where the traveling salesman is allowed to revisit points. ...
Interestingly, these results do not carry over to Tsp (2, 2) with squared Euclidean distances. ...

arXiv
pre-print
We present a polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the min-max multiple TSP problem in Euclidean space, where multiple traveling salesmen are tasked with visiting a set of n points and the objective ...
Our algorithm introduces a rounding process to balance the allocation of path lengths among the multiple salesman. ...

A Priori Bounds on the Euclidean Traveling Salesman
1995
SIAM journal on computing (Print)
It is proved that there are constants cl, c2, and c3 such that for any set S of n points in the unit square and for any minimum-length tour T of S (1) the sum of squares of the edge lengths of T is bounded ...
The presence of the logarithmic term in (1) is engaging because such a term is not needed in the case of the minimum spanning tree and several analogous problems, and. furthermore, we know that there always ...
It is well known that edges of an optimal Euclidean traveling salesman tour cannot intersect. ...

Polynomial time approximation schemes for Euclidean traveling salesman and other geometric problems
1998
Journal of the ACM
For every fixed c Ͼ 1 and given any n nodes in 2 , a randomized version of the scheme finds a (1 ϩ 1/c)-approximation to the optimum traveling salesman tour in O(n(log n) O(c) ) time. ...
We also give similar approximation schemes for some other NP-hard Euclidean problems: Minimum Steiner Tree, k-TSP, and k-MST. ...
Finally, I am indebted to Warren Smith and Michel Goemans for suggesting the use of Steiner points or "portals" in the description of the PTAS for TSP; this greatly simplified the exposition and the proof ...
