A new upper bound of the Euclidean TSP constant

Let X1, X2, . . . , Xn be n independent and uniformly distributed random points in a compact region R ⊂ R2 of area 1. Let TSP(X1, . . . , Xn) denote the length of the optimal Euclidean traveling salesman tour that traverses all these points. The classical Beardwood-Halton-Hammersley theorem proves the existence … Read more
