On the integrality Gap of Small Asymmetric Travelling Salesman Problems: A Polyhedral and Computational Approach

\(\) In this paper, we investigate the integrality gap of the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem (ATSP) with respect to the linear relaxation given by the Asymmetric Subtour Elimination Problem (ASEP) for small-sized instances. In particular, we focus on the geometric properties and symmetries of the ASEP polytope ( \(P_{ASEP}^n\) ) and its vertices. The polytope’s … Read more
