A related example is the multiset of solutions of an algebraic equation. A quadratic equation, for example, has two solutions. However, in some cases they are both the same number. Thus the multiset of solutions of the equation could be {3, 5}, or it could be {4, 4}. In the latter case it has a solution of multiplicity 2.
The subset sum problem (SSP) is a decision problem in computer science. In its most general formulation, there is a multiset S {\displaystyle S} of integers and a target-sum T {\displaystyle T} , and the question is to decide whether any subset of the integers sum to precisely T {\displaystyle T} . [ 1 ]
It provides the unordered_multiset class for the unsorted multiset, as a kind of unordered associative container, which implements this multiset using a hash table. The unsorted multiset is standard as of C++11; previously SGI's STL provides the hash_multiset class, which was copied and eventually standardized.
The multiple subset sum problem is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research. It is a generalization of the subset sum problem . The input to the problem is a multiset S {\displaystyle S} of n integers and a positive integer m representing the number of subsets.
In set theory and related branches of mathematics, a family (or collection) can mean, depending upon the context, any of the following: set, indexed set, multiset, or class. A collection F {\displaystyle F} of subsets of a given set S {\displaystyle S} is called a family of subsets of S {\displaystyle S} , or a family of sets over S ...
For any pair of positive integers n and k, the number of k-tuples of non-negative integers whose sum is n is equal to the number of multisets of size k − 1 taken from a set of size n + 1, or equivalently, the number of multisets of size n taken from a set of size k, and is given by
In number theory and computer science, the partition problem, or number partitioning, [1] is the task of deciding whether a given multiset S of positive integers can be partitioned into two subsets S 1 and S 2 such that the sum of the numbers in S 1 equals the sum of the numbers in S 2.
[1]: sec.5 The problem is parametrized by a positive integer k, and called k-way number partitioning. [2] The input to the problem is a multiset S of numbers (usually integers), whose sum is k*T . The associated decision problem is to decide whether S can be partitioned into k subsets such that the sum of each subset is exactly T .
