Description
Summary:This title provides a comprehensive survey over the subject of probabilistic combinatorial optimization, discussing probabilistic versions of some of the most paradigmatic combinatorial problems on graphs, such as the maximum independent set, the minimum vertex covering, the longest path and the minimum coloring. Detailed discussion is given to a priori optimization, which is adopted as the main working hypothesis: starting from an a priori solution of a super instance of a problem, where any datum is present with a certain probability, this hypothesis consists of creating modifications in or.
