Hamilton pathNamed after William Hamilton, a path that traverses every vertex of a connected graph once and only once. The problem of the knight's tour is equivalent to finding a Hamilton path (or, in the case, of a reentrant tour, a Hamilton circuit) that corresponds to the legal moves of the knight. Compare with Euler path. Related category GRAPHS AND GRAPH THEORYAlso on this site: Encyclopedia of Alternative Energy & Sustainable Living Encyclopedia of History |
