Cube versus Torus Models for Combinatorial Optimization Problems and the Euclidean Minimum Spanning Tree Constant
For a sample of points drawn uniformly from either the d-dimensional torus or the d-cube, d > 2, we define a class of random processes with the property of being asymptotically equivalent in expectation in the two models. Examples include the traveling salesman problem (TSP), the minimum spanning...
