Shortest path problem — A graph with 6 vertices and 7 edges In graph theory, the shortest path problem is the problem of finding a path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph such that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized. An example is… … Wikipedia
Longest uncrossed knight's path — The longest uncrossed (or nonintersecting) knight s path is a mathematical problem involving a knight on a standard 8 times; 8 chessboard or, more generally, on a square n times; n board. The problem is to find the longest path the knight can… … Wikipedia
Longest common subsequence problem — Not to be confused with longest common substring problem. The longest common subsequence (LCS) problem is to find the longest subsequence common to all sequences in a set of sequences (often just two). Note that subsequence is different from a… … Wikipedia
Travelling salesman problem — The travelling salesman problem (TSP) is an NP hard problem in combinatorial optimization studied in operations research and theoretical computer science. Given a list of cities and their pairwise distances, the task is to find a shortest… … Wikipedia
Hamiltonian path — This article is about the overall graph theory concept of a Hamiltonian path. For the specific problem of determining whether a Hamiltonian path or cycle exists in a given graph, see Hamiltonian path problem. A Hamiltonian cycle in a dodecahedron … Wikipedia
Induced path — An induced path of length four in a cube. Finding the longest induced path in a hypercube is known as the snake in the box problem. In the mathematical area of graph theory, an induced path in an undirected graph G is a path that is an induced… … Wikipedia
Clique problem — The brute force algorithm finds a 4 clique in this 7 vertex graph (the complement of the 7 vertex path graph) by systematically checking all C(7,4)=35 4 vertex subgraphs for completeness. In computer science, the clique problem refers to any of… … Wikipedia
