Abstract

The Prize-Collecting Traveling Salesman Problem is a class of generalizations of the classic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) where it is not necessary to visit all the vertices. Given the edge costs and a certain profit associated with each vertex, the goal is to find a route which satisfies maximum collected profit and minimum traveling costs constraints. We show polynomial-time approximation algorithms for two variants of the problem and establish conditions under which the presented algorithms are asymptotically optimal on random inputs.
