A Quasi-Polynomial Algorithm for Well-Spaced Hyperbolic TSP
Abstract
We study the traveling salesman problem in the hyperbolic plane of Gaussian curvature -1. Let α denote the minimum distance between any two input points. Using a new separator theorem and a new rerouting argument, we give an n^{O(log² n)max(1,1/α)} algorithm for Hyperbolic TSP. This is quasi-polynomial time if α is at least some absolute constant, and it grows to n^O(√n) as α decreases to log² n/√n. (For even smaller values of α, we can use a planarity-based algorithm of Hwang et al. (1993), which gives a running time of n^O(√n).)
