  2. Multiple subset sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_subset_sum

    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.

  3. Multiway number partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_number_partitioning

    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. There is also an optimization problem: find a partition of S into k subsets, such that the k sums are "as near as ...

  4. Sumset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumset

    In additive combinatorics, the sumset (also called the Minkowski sum) of two subsets and of an abelian group (written additively) is defined to be the set of all sums of an element from with an element from .

  5. Subset sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem

    The subset sum problem (SSP) is a decision problem in computer science. In its most general formulation, there is a multiset of integers and a target-sum , and the question is to decide whether any subset of the integers sum to precisely . [1] The problem is known to be NP-complete.

    ) to sum up a subrectangle of its values; each coloured spot highlights the sum inside the rectangle of that colour. A summed-area table is a data structure and algorithm for quickly and efficiently generating the sum of values in a rectangular subset of a grid.

  7. NP-equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP-equivalent

    Given a set of integers, SUBSET-SUM is the problem of finding whether there exists a subset summing to zero. SUBSET-SUM is NP-complete. To show that FIND-SUBSET-SUM is NP-equivalent, we must show that it is both NP-hard and NP-easy. Clearly it is NP-hard. If we had a black box that solved FIND-SUBSET-SUM in unit time, then it would be easy to ...

  9. Sum-free set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum-free_set

    For example, the set of odd numbers is a sum-free subset of the integers, and the set {N + 1, ..., 2N } forms a large sum-free subset of the set {1, ..., 2N }. Fermat's Last Theorem is the statement that, for a given integer n > 2, the set of all nonzero n th powers of the integers is a sum-free set.
