How do you traverse a rectangular grid of points while turning as little as possible?
Suppose I have a lattice grid of $m \times n$ points in the plane, with $m\leq n$. I want to traverse this grid in such a way as to minimize the total amount of turning that occurs. I am pretty sure ...

Constructing optimal Hamilton cycles from optimal Hamilton paths
Question:
can the shortest Hamilton cycle in a complete symmetric graph with weighted edges be constructed from the shortest Hamilton path in the same graph by connecting its ends and then exchanging ...

Could you provide some TSP examples from real world to test a new algorithm?
It's well known that to find a hamilton cycle is NPC, while TSP is NPH.
But it seems that for majority of graphs (density of edge > 0.1, order > 100) there is a fast algorithm to find different ...

Travelling salesman problem with variable weights
Take a fully connected graph with $v$ vertices. We assign weights to edges using an arbitrary function $f_{ij}(x)$ for pairs of vertices $0 < i, j \le v$, then starting at $c_{0}=0$, traverse the ...

A variant of travel salesman problem with charging points
Given a graph composed of a set $V$ of nodes, each representing a point to be visited by a salesman, and a set of fixed charging points. The salesman disposes a car that can travel $D$ distance before ...
