一种多项式3-可着色算法及NO 3-可着色(即Co-NP)短证明的自动生成

A polynomial 3-colorability algorithm with automatic generation of NO 3-colorability (i.e. Co-NP) short proofs

摘要:

本文给出了平面图3-可染性的判定算法,即判定问题(YES/NO)。该算法虽然不精确(可能产生误报),但有两个非常重要的特征:(i)它具有多项式复杂度;(ii)对于每个“否”答案,都会生成一个“简短”证明,这是非常有趣的,因为3-着色性是NP完全问题,因此其互补问题是Co-NP。因此,该算法是准确的,当它确定一个给定的平面图是不是3-着色,因为这是通过自动生成的简短的正式证明(也是人类可读的)验证。

英文摘要:

In this paper, an algorithm for determining 3-colorability, i.e. the decision problem (YES/NO), in planar graphs is presented. The algorithm, although not exact (it could produce false positives) has two very important features: (i) it has polynomial complexity and (ii) for every "NO" answer, a "short" proof is generated, which is of much interest since 3-colorability is a NP-complete problem and thus its complementary problem is in Co-NP. Hence the algorithm is exact when it determines that a given planar graph is not 3-colorable since this is verifiable via an automatic generation of short formal proofs (also human-readable).
