Show that if , then every language , except , is complete.
A cut in an undirected graph is a separation of the vertices V into two disjoint subsets S and T . The size of a cut is the number of edges that have one endpoint in S and the other in T . Let
Show that MAX-CUT is NP-complete. You may assume the result of Problem 7.26. (Hint: Show that. The variable gadget for variable x is a collection of 3c nodes labeled with x and another nodes labeled with x . The clause gadget is a triangle of three edges connecting three nodes labeled with the literals appearing in the clause. Do not use the same node in more than one clause gadget. Prove that this reduction works.)
A permutation on the set is a one-to-one, onto function on this set. When is a permutation, means the composition of with itself t times. Let
Show that . (Note that the most obvious algorithm doesn鈥檛 run within polynomial time.
Consider the following scheduling problem. You are given a list of final exams to be scheduled, and a list of students . Each student is taking some specified subset of these exams. You must schedule these exams into slots so that no student is required to take two exams in the same slot. The problem is to determine if such a schedule exists that uses only slots. Formulate this problem as a language and show that this language is.
