释义 |
A Supnick matrix or Supnick array – named after Fred Supnick of the City College of New York, who introduced the notion in 1957 – is a Monge array which is also a symmetric matrix. Mathematical definitionA Supnick matrix is a square Monge array that is symmetric around the main diagonal. An n-by-n matrix is a Supnick matrix if, for all i, j, k, l such that if and then and also A logically equivalent definition is given by Rudolf & Woeginger who in 1995 proved that A matrix is a Supnick matrix iff it can be written as the sum of a sum matrix S and a non-negative linear combination of LL-UR block matrices. The sum matrix is defined in terms of a sequence of n real numbers {αi}: and an LL-UR block matrix consists of two symmetrically placed rectangles in the lower-left and upper right corners for which aij = 1, with all the rest of the matrix elements equal to zero. PropertiesAdding two Supnick matrices together will result in a new Supnick matrix (Deineko and Woeginger 2006). Multiplying a Supnick matrix by a non-negative real number produces a new Supnick matrix (Deineko and Woeginger 2006). If the distance matrix in a traveling salesman problem can be written as a Supnick matrix, that particular instance of the problem admits an easy solution (even though the problem is, in general, NP hard).
