Convergent Duality for the Traveling Salesman Problem

A constructive method is presented for optimizing exactly the Traveling Salesman Problem as a sequence of shortest route problems. The method combines group theoretic and Lagrangean relaxation constructions. Key Words: Traveling Salesman Problem, Lagrangean relaxation, shortest route problem, genera...
