2 Two Smple Examples Ex. Sum of Subsets Instance : A fnte set A of postve ntegers and a postve nteger c. Queston : Is there a subset A of A whose elements sum to c? For example, f A = {7, 5, 19, 1, 12, 8, 14} and c = 21, then the answer s yes (A = {7, 14}). NP-completeness of Sum of Subsets s shown below. Sum of Subsets NP. A chosen NP-complete problem : Exact Cover. 2
3 Exact Cover Instance : A fnte set S and k subsets S 1, S 2,, S k of S. Queston : Is there a subset of {S 1, S 2,, S k } that forms a partton of S? For example, f S = {7, 5, 19, 1, 12, 8, 14}, k = 4, S 1 = {7, 19, 12, 14}, S 2 = {7, 5, 8}, S 3 = {5, 1, 8}, and S 4 = {19, 1, 8, 14}, then the answer s yes ({S 1, S 3 } forms a partton of S). 3
4 Exact Cover Sum of Subsets. Let S = {u 1, u 2,, u m } and S 1, S 2,, S k be an arbtrary nstance of Exact Cover. An nstance of Sum of Subsets can be obtaned n polynomal tme as follows. m 1 A = {a 1, a 2,, a k } and c = ( k + 1 ), where for 1 j k, = 0 a j = m = 1 e, ( k + 1 ) 1, j wth e j, = 1 f u S j and e j, = 0 f u S j. Sum of Subsets has the answer yes f and only f Exact Cover has the answer yes. 4
5 For example, gven the followng nstance of Exact Cover : S = {7, 5, 19, 1, 12, 8, 14}, k = 4, S 1 = {7, 19, 12, 14}, S 2 = {7, 5, 8}, S 3 = {5, 1, 8}, and S 4 = {19, 1, 8, 4}, a matrx e s defned as follows. S S S S An nstance of Sum of Subsets s constructed as follows. 5
6 A = {a 1, a 2, a 3, a 4 } and c = , where a 1 = (1 st row of e); a 2 = (2 nd row of e); a 3 = (3 rd row of e); a 4 = (4 th row of e). The constructon relates a wth S and c wth S. It s not dffcult to see a 1 + a 3 = c S 1 S 3 = S and S 1 S 3 =. 6
7 Ex. Partton Instance : A multset B = {b 1, b 2,, b n } of postve ntegers. Queston : Is there a subset B B such that b B' b = b B B' j b j? For example, when B = {17, 53, 9, 35, 41, 32, 35}, then the answer s yes (B = {17, 53, 41}). NP-completeness of Partton s shown below. Partton NP. A chosen NP-complete problem : Sum of Subsets. 7
8 Sum of Subsets Partton Let A = {a 1, a 2,, a m } and c be an arbtrary nstance of Sum of Subsets. An nstance of Partton can be obtaned n polynomal tme as follows: B = A {a m+1, a m+2 }, where a m+1 = c + 1 and a m+2 = 1 c + a A a. Snce a m+1 + a m+2 = a A a + 2, we have {a m+1, a m+2 } B and {a m+1, a m+2 } B B. We show below that a Α' a = c f and only f a m+2 + a Α' a = a m+1 + a Α Α' a (.e., B = A + {a m+2 }). 8
9 ( ) Suppose a Α' a = c. a m+2 + a Α' a = (1 c + a A a ) + a Α' a = 1 + a Α a. a m+1 + a Α Α' a = (c + 1) + a Α Α' a = 1 + a Α a. ( ) Suppose a m+2 + a Α' a = a m+1 + a Α Α' a,.e., B = A + {a m+2 }. Then, (1 c + a Α Α' a A a, a ) + a Α' a = (c + 1) + from whch a Α' a = c can be derved. 9

11 Three Proof Technques Restrcton Local Replacement Component Desgn 11
12 Restrcton If a problem Π contans an NP-hard problem Π as a specal case (.e., Π s a restrcted subproblem of Π), then Π s NP-hard. Ex. Exact Cover Instance : A fnte set S and k subsets S 1, S 2,, S k of S. Queston : Is there a subset of {S 1, S 2,, S k } that forms a partton of S? Exact Cover by 3-Sets Instance : A fnte set S wth S = 3p and k 3- element subsets S 1, S 2,, S k of S. Queston : Is there a subset of {S 1, S 2,, S k } that forms a partton of S? 12
13 Exact Cover by 3-Sets s a specal case of Exact Cover. 3-Dmensonal Matchng Instance : A set M W X Y, where W, X and Y are three dsjont q-element subsets. Queston : Does M contan a matchng,.e., a subset M M such that M = q and no two elements of M agree n any coordnate? For example, f W = {0, 1}, X = {a, b}, Y = {+, }, and M = {(0, a, +), (1, b, +), (1, b, )}, then the answer s yes (M = {(0, a, +), (1, b, )}). 3-Dmensonal Matchng s a specal case of Exact Cover by 3-Sets. 13
14 For example, the followng nstance of 3-Dmensonal Matchng : W = {0, 1}, X = {a, b}, Y = {+, }, and M = {(0, a, +), (1, b, +), (1, b, )} can be transformed nto an nstance of Exact Cover by 3-Sets as follows : S 1 = {0 W, a X, + Y }, S 2 = {1 W, b X, + Y }, S 3 = {1 W, b X, Y }, and S = W X Y = {0 W, 1 W, a X, b X, + Y, Y }. Therefore, 3-Dmensonal Matchng s NP-complete. Exact Cover by 3-Sets s NP-complete. Exact Cover s NP-complete. 14
15 Ex. Hamltonan Cycle Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E). Queston : Does G contan a Hamltonan Cycle,.e., an orderng (v 1, v 2,, v V ) of the vertces of G such that (v 1, v V ) E and (v, v +1 ) E for all 1 < V? Drected Hamltonan Cycle Instance : A drected graph G = (V, A), where A s a set of arcs (.e., ordered pars of vertces). Queston : Does G contan a drected Hamltonan cycle,.e., an orderng (v 1, v 2,, v V ) of the vertces of G such that (v 1, v V ) A and (v, v +1 ) A for all 1 < V? 15
16 Hamltonan Cycle s a specal case of Drected Hamltonan Cycle (or Hamltonan Cycle Drected Hamltonan Cycle, where each (u, v) E corresponds to two arcs (u, v), (v, u) A). Therefore, Hamltonan Cycle s NP-complete. Drected Hamltonan Cycle s NP-complete. 16
17 Hamltonan Path between Two Vertces Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E) and two dstnct vertces u, v V. Queston : Does G contan a Hamltonan path startng at u and endng at v,.e., an orderng (v 1, v 2,, v V ) of the vertces of G such that u = v 1, v = v V, and (v, v +1 ) E for all 1 < V? Hamltonan Cycle Hamltonan Path between Two Vertces : f the latter s polynomal tme solvable, then the former s also polynomal tme solvable (consderng all edges (u, v) V for the latter). Hamltonan Path between Two Vertces s NP-complete. 17
18 Hamltonan Path Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E). Queston : Does G contan a Hamltonan path? Hamltonan Cycle Hamltonan Path : For each (u, v) E, construct an nstance of Hamltonan Path by addng x, y to V and (x, u), (y, v) to E (thus G s nduced). x y u v u v G G G has a Hamltonan cycle f and only f G has a Hamltonan x-y path. If Hamltonan Path s polynomal tme solvable, then Hamltonan Cycle s also polynomal tme solvable. Hamltonan Path s NP-complete. 18
19 Exercse 7. Show the followng two problems NP- complete by restrcton to Hamltonan Path and Partton, respectvely. Bounded Degree Spannng Tree Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E) and a postve nteger k V 1. Queston : Does G contans a spannng tree n whch each node has degree at most k? 0/1 Knapsack Instance : A fnte set U, a sze s(u) Z + and a value v(u) Z + for each u U, a sze constrant b Z +, and a value goal k Z +. Queston : Is there a subset U U such that s( u) u U' b and v( u) u U' k? 19
20 Local Replacement In order to show Π Π, local replacement specfes the basc unts for Π and replaces them wth others, whle constructng a correspondng nstance of Π. Usually, local replacement has one knd of basc unts that each are replaced wth the same structure. Ex. Partton nto Trangles Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E) wth V = 3p for some nteger p > 0. Queston : Is there a partton of V nto 3-vertex subsets V 1, V 2,, V p, such that each subgraph nduced by some V (1 p) forms a trangle? 20
21 For example, the answer for the followng nstance s yes, because V can be parttoned nto {1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6}, {7, 8, 9} or {1, 4, 7}, {2, 5, 6}, {3, 8, 9} Exact Cover by 3-Sets Partton nto Trangles s shown below. Let a set S, where S = 3p, and a collecton C of 3-element subsets of S denote an arbtrary nstance of Exact Cover by 3-Sets. Construct an nstance of Partton nto Trangles as follows. 21
22 Consder each subset {x, y, z } C a basc unt, and replace t wth the followng structure. a [3] a [6] a [9] a [1] a [2] a [4] a [5] a [7] a [8] x y z For example, f S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and C = {{1, 4, 6}, {2, 4, 6}, {2, 3, 5}}, then an nstance of Partton nto Trangles s obtaned as follows
23 It s not dffcult to check that f Exact Cover by 3-Sets has an answer yes (e.g., {{1, 4, 6}, {2, 3, 5}} s a partton of S), then Partton nto Trangles has an answer yes (the trangles are shown wth bold edges). Also, f Partton nto Trangles has an answer yes, then Exact Cover by 3-Sets has an answer yes. Exercse 8. Read Example 8-9 on page 353 of the textbook. (1) Gve a reducton from Satsfablty to 3-Satsfablty. (2) Illustrate the reducton by an example. (3) Verfy the reducton. 23
24 Sometmes, addtonal structures are requred, whle usng the technque of local replacement. Ex. Sequencng wthn Intervals Instance : A fnte set T of tasks and for each t T, a release tme r(t) Z + {0}, a deadlne d(t) Z +, and a length l(t) Z +. Queston : Does there exst a feasble schedule for T,.e., a functon f : T Z + such that for each t T, f(t) r(t), f(t) + l(t) d(t), and f(t ) + l(t ) f(t) or f(t) + l(t) f(t ) for each t T {t}? (It means that the task t, whch s executed from tme f(t) to f(t) + l(t), cannot start executon untl tme r(t), must be completed by tme d(t), and ts executon cannot overlap the executon of any other task t.) 24
25 Partton Sequencng wthn Intervals s shown below. An arbtrary nstance of Partton : a multset B = {b 1, b 2,, b n } of postve ntegers. Consder each b (1 n) a basc unt, and let m = 1 n b. Construct an nstance of Sequencng wthn Intervals as follow : each b corresponds to a task t wth r(t ) = 0, d(t ) = m + 1, and l(t ) = b. An addtonal structure : a task t% wth r( t% ) = m/2, d( t% ) = (m+1)/2, and l( t% ) = 1. m should be even (for otherwse, r( t% ) = d( t% ),.e., t s mpossble to schedule t% ) 25
26 r( t% ) = m/2, d( t% ) = (m/2) + 1 f ( t% ) must be m/2. m 2 m 2 t% 0 m m m + 1 Tme Partton has the answer yes f and only f Sequencng wthn Intervals has the answer yes. 26
27 Component Desgn Whle showng Π Π, component desgn s smlar to local replacement n replacng the structures (.e., basc unts) of Π wth other structures, n order to obtan an nstance of Π. Usually, component desgn adopts multple knds of basc unts, and dfferent basc unts are replaced wth dfferent structures. Ex. Vertex Cover Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E) and a postve nteger k V. Queston : Does G contan a vertex cover of sze at most k,.e., a subset V V such that V k and for each (u, v) E, at least one of u and v belongs to V? 27
28 For example, {1, 3}, {1, 2, 3} and {1, 2, 4, 5} are three vertex covers of the followng graph. If k 2, the answer s yes. If k = 1, the answer s no. We show below 3-Satsfablty Vertex Cover. 3-Satsfablty Instance : A set U of varables and a collecton C = {c 1, c 2,, c m } of clauses over U, where each clause of C contans three lterals. Queston : Is there a satsfyng truth assgnment for C? 28
29 For example, when U = {x 1, x 2, x 3 } and C = {x 1 x 2 x 3, x 1 x 2 x 3, x 1 x 2 x 3 }, the answer s yes, because the assgnment of U : x 1 F, x 2 F, and x 3 T, can satsfy C (.e., (x 1 x 2 x 3 ) ( x 1 x 2 x 3 ) (x 1 x 2 x 3 ) = T). Let U = {u 1, u 2,, u n } and C = {c 1, c 2,, c m } be an arbtrary nstance of 3-Satsfablty. For each u U, construct a component T = (V, E ), where V = {u, u } and E = {(u, For each c j C, construct a component S j = u )}. (V j, E j ), where V j = {a 1 [j], a 2 [j], a 3 [j]} and E j = {(a 1 [j], a 2 [j]), (a 1 [j], a 3 [j]), (a 2 [j], a 3 [j])}. For each c j C, construct an edge set E j = {(a 1 [j], x j ), (a 2 [j], y j ), (a 3 [j], z j )}, where x j, y j and z j are the three lterals n c j. 29
30 An nstance of Vertex Cover can be constructed as G = (V, E) and k = n + 2m, where V = ( U n ) ( U m V' ) and =1 V j=1 j E = ( U n ) ( U m =1 E j=1 E' j ) ( U m E'' ). j=1 j For example, f U = {u 1, u 2, u 3, u 4 } and C = {u 1 u 3 u 4, u 1 u 2 u 4 }, then the followng nstance of Vertex Cover s constructed, where k = 8. 30
31 Each edge n E j represents a satsfyng truth assgnment for c j. For example, (u 1, a 1 [1]) E 1 mples that u 1 T can satsfy c 1. Any vertex cover V V of G contans at least one from {u, from {a 1 [j], a 2 [j], a 3 [j]}. u } and at least two V n + 2m = k As explaned below, C s satsfable f and only f G has a vertex cover V V wth V k. 31
32 C s satsfable V V wth V k exsts Consder the example above, where u 1 T, u 2 T, u 3 T, and u 4 T can satsfy C. nclude u 1, u 2, u 3, u 4 n V In order to make V a vertex cover, V must be augmented wth two vertces from each set {a 1 [j], a 2 [j], a 3 [j]}, whle coverng all edges n E j. augment V wth any two from {a 1 [1], a 2 [1], a 3 [1]} and a 1 [2], a 2 [2] (or a 1 [2], a 3 [2]) from {a 1 [2], a 2 [2], a 3 [2]} (a 1 [2] must be ncluded n V, n order to cover the edge (u 1, a 1 [2])) 32
33 V V wth V k exsts C s satsfable V contans exactly k = n + 2m vertces : one for each {u, u } and two for each {a 1 [j], a 2 [j], a 3 [j]}. Consder the example above, where k = 8 and V = {u 1, u 2, u 3, u 4, a 1 [1], a 3 [1], a 1 [2], a 3 [2]} s a vertex cover. u 1 T, u 2 T, u 3 T and u 4 T can satsfy C (u 1, u 2, u 3, u 4 V ) Snce two (e.g., a 1 [1] and a 3 [1]) from {a 1 [j], a 2 [j], a 3 [j]} are ncluded n V, the other (e.g., a 2 [1]) must be connected to u or ncluded n V. u (e.g., u 3 ) that s each c j s satsfable. 33
34 Ex. Mnmum Tardness Sequencng Instance : A fnte set T of tasks, where each t T has length 1 and deadlne d(t) Z +, a partal order p on T, and a non-negatve nteger r T. Queston : Is there a schedule f : T {0, 1,, T 1} such that f(t) f(t ) f t t, f(t) < f(t ) f t p t, and {t T : f(t) + 1 > d(t)} r? A task t T s tardy, f f(t) + 1 > d(t). The schedule f s requred not to cause more than r tasks tardy. We show below Clque Mnmum Tardness Sequencng. 34
35 Clque Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E) and a postve nteger k V. Queston : Does there exst a subset V V such that V k and every two vertces of V are adjacent n G? Let G = (V, E) and k V be an arbtrary nstance of Clque. An nstance of Mnmum Tardness Sequencng can be constructed as follows. T = V E; r = E k(k 1) / 2; v p e v V, e E, and v s an endpont of e; d(v) = V + E for v V, and d(e) = k(k + 1) / 2 for e E. 35
36 a clque of sze k for G a feasble schedule for T Suppose that G = (V, E ) s a k-vertex complete subgraph of G ( V = k and E = k(k 1)/2). A feasble schedule s shown below. Tasks n V and n E are not tardy. There are at most E E = E k(k 1)/2 tardy tasks. a feasble schedule for T a clque of sze k for G Suppose that f s a feasble schedule, and there are x tasks from V and y tasks from E scheduled n {0, 1,, (k(k + 1) / 2) 1} under f. 36
37 Then, x + y = k(k + 1) / 2. (1) Snce only tasks n E may be tardy, we have E y E k(k 1) / 2 (= r). y k(k 1) / 2 (2) Wth (1) and (2), we have x (k(k + 1) / 2) (k(k 1) / 2) = k. (3) The only stuaton that both (2) and (3) hold wth the restrcton of p s when x = k, y = k(k 1) / 2, and the k vertces together wth the k(k 1) / 2 edges form a complete subgraph of G. 37

39 A Proof Technque for NP- Completeness of Subproblems Suppose that Π s an NP-complete problem and Π s a restrcted subproblem of Π. A proof technque, whch s based on local replacement, for the NP-completeness of Π s ntroduced. Ex. Graph 3-Colorablty Instance : An undrected graph G = (V, E). Queston : Is G 3-colorable,.e., does there exst a functon f : V {1, 2, 3} such that f(u) f(v) for all edges (u, v) E? Graph 3-Colorablty wth Degrees at Most Four s a restrcted subproblem of Graph 3-Colorablty where each vertex degree of G s at most four. 39
40 For example, the followng graph, denoted by H 3, s 3-colorable, and n each 3-colorng, the three endponts of the largest trangle are assgned wth the same color. Let H k be the concatenaton of k 2 H 3 s, where k 3. For example, H 5 s depcted as follows. 40
41 H k has k outlets (.e., the vertces of degree 2). H k s 3-colorable and n each 3-colorng, the k outlets are assgned wth the same color. Next we show Graph 3-Colorablty Graph 3-Colorablty wth Degrees at Most Four. Suppose that G = (V, E) s an arbtrary nstance of Graph 3-Colorablty. An nstance G = (V, E ) of Graph 3-Colorablty wth Degrees at Most Four can be obtaned by sequentally replacng each vertex of G whose degree s k > 4 wth H k. 41
42 For example, It s easy to see that G s 3-colorable f and only f G s 3-colorable. 42
43 Planar Graph 3-Colorablty s a restrcted subproblem of Graph 3-Colorablty where G s planar. We show Graph 3-Colorablty Planar Graph 3-Colorablty below. Let H denote the followng graph. Notce that H s 3-colorable, and any 3-colorng f of H has f(x) = f(x ) and f(y) = f(y ). Besdes, there exst 3-colorngs f 1 and f 2 of H wth f 1 (x) = f 1 (x ) = f 1 (y) = f 1 (y ) and f 2 (x) = f 2 (x ) f 2 (y) = f 2 (y ). 43
44 Suppose that G = (V, E) s an arbtrary nstance of Graph 3-Colorablty. An nstance G = (V, E ) of Planar Graph 3-Colorablty can be obtaned by performng the followng replacement on the edge crossngs of each edge (u, v) E. It s not dffcult to check that G s 3-colorable f and only f G s 3-colorable. 44
45 More Examples Ex. VLSI Dscrete Layout Instance : A set R = {r 1, r 2,, r n } of rectangles, where each r s of sze h w, and an nteger A > 0. Queston : Is there a placement of R on the plane satsfyng the followng condtons: (1) each vertex of r has an ntegral (x, y)-coordnate; (2) each lne of r s parallel to the x-axs or y-axs; (3) no two rectangles overlap; (4) every two neghborng rectangles are one dstant from each other; (5) R can be covered by a rectangle of area at most A? 45
46 For example, f n = 5, r 1 : 3 5, r 2 : 5 12, r 3 : 5 6, r 4 : 3 6, r 5 : 4 7, and A = 210, then the answer s affrmatve, because the fve rectangles can be covered by a rectangle of sze We show below Bn Packng VLSI Dscrete Layout. 46
47 Bn Packng Instance : A set U = {u 1, u 2,, u n } of tems, where each u has sze s > 0, and a set B = {b 1, b 2,, b m } of bns, where each b j has capacty c > 0. Queston : Is there a dstrbuton of U over B such that the tems wthn the same bn has total sze at most c? For example, f n = 10, (c 1, c 2,, c 10 ) = (2, 7, 5, 8, 6, 8, 5, 4, 8, 6), m = 3, and c = 20, then the answer s affrmatve. 47
48 Let U = {u 1, u 2,, u n } and B = {b 1, b 2,, b m } be an arbtrary nstance of Bn Packng. An nstance of VLSI Dscrete Layout can be constructed as follows. For each u (1 n), construct r of sze 1 ((2m + 1)s 1). Construct r n+1 of sze h w, where h = 2mw + 1 and w = (2m + 1)c 1. Set A = (h + 2m)w. Bn Packng yes VLSI Dscrete Layout yes Suppose that there are n tems stored n b whose szes are d, 1, d, 2, n where 1 m and d, r= 1, r c. d,, n 48
49 The placement of the correspondng rectangles wth respect to b s as follows. (placement wth respect to b ) The placement of all n + 1 rectangles s as follows. 49
50 The wdth of the placement wth respect to b s computed as follows. n (( ( n 1) + 2 m + 1 d 1) r= 1 ), r n = ( n 1) n + (2 m +1 ) d, r r= 1 (2m + 1)c 1 = w. The area of the rectangle coverng all n + 1 rectangles s at most (2m + h)w = A. VLSI Dscrete Layout yes Bn Packng yes Suppose that r 1, r 2,, r n+1 can be covered by a rectangle r% of area at most A. There are the followng three facts. 50
51 Fact 1. The wdth of r% s w, whch s the wdth of r n+1. Proof. Suppose to the contrary that the wdth of r% s at least w + 1. Snce the heght of r n+1 s h, the area of r% s at least h(w + 1) = hw + h = hw + (2mw + 1) = (h + 2m)w + 1 = A + 1, a contradcton! Fact 2. Each r (1 n) s placed wth heght 1, not of heght (2m + 1)s 1. Proof. If some r s placed wth heght (2m + 1)s 1, then the heght of r% s at least h + ((2m + 1)s 1) + 1 = h + (2m + 1)s. 51
52 So, the area of r% s at least (h + (2m + 1)s )w = hw + 2mws + ws = (2ms + h)w + ws > A + ws a contradcton! Fact 3. The total number of rows occuped by r 1, r 2,, r n s at most m. Proof. If t s not true, then the area of r% s larger than (2m + h)w = A, a contradcton. Accordng to the three facts, the placement of r 1, r 2,, r n+1 s lke the one shown on page 49. Then, put the tems correspondng to the rectangles of row nto b. 52
53 Suppose that there are n tems stored n b whose szes are d, 1, d, 2,, d., n Snce the wdth of row (1 m) s at most w, we have w (= (2m + 1)c 1) n (( ( n 2 m + d, r r= 1 1) + 1 1) n = ( (2 ), r r= 1 n 1) + m +1 d n n = (2 m ) d, r r= ) n d, r r= 1 c 53
