文摘In the theory of computational complexity, the travelling salesman problem is a typical one in the NP class. With the aid of a brand-new approach named “maximum-deleting method”, a fast algorithm is constructed for it with a polynomial time of biquadrate, which greatly reduces the computational complexity. Since this problem is also NP-complete, as a corollary, P = NP is proved to be true. It indicates the crack of the well-known open problem named “P versus NP”.
