$\mathrm{LP}$ formulation for $\mathrm{k}$-$\operatorname{opt}$ moves
$\mathrm{k}$-$\operatorname{opt}$ moves are an idea to improve non-optimal Hamilton cycles in weighted symmetric graphs by exchanging $\mathrm{k}$ tour-edges with $\mathrm{k}$ edges that do not belong ...

Monotony of enforced subtour merging
Is it true that for a symmetric TSP instance in the sequence of edges generated by successively:
calculating the optimal 2-factor
adding cardinality constraints on the edgesets of the 2-factor's ...

Subtour-gluing constraints for ILP formulation of TSPs
If one doesn't want to introduce additional variables to the ILP of a TSP instance, one has to add exponentially many so-called subtour-elimination constraints; in practical calculations subtour-...

Do we really need degree constraints for ILP formulations of TSP problems
The Dantzig-Fulkerson ILP-formulation of the symmetric TSP is
$$\min\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n-1}\sum\limits_{j=i+1}^n c_{ij}x_{\lbrace i,j\rbrace}\quad\text{s.t.}\\ \sum\limits_{j\ne i,\,j=1}^n x_{\lbrace ...

Additional symmetries of the Traveling Salesman Polytope
Given the complete graph $K_n=(V,E)$, the Traveling Salesman Polytope is a convex polytope in $\Bbb R^E$ obtained as the convex hull of the indicator vectors of (edge-sets of) Hamiltonian cycles in $...
