ASP-Completeness of Hamiltonicity in Grid Graphs, with Applications to Loop Puzzles
MIT Hardness Group, Josh Brunner, Lily Chung +4
We prove that Hamiltonicity in maximum-degree-3 grid graphs (directed or undirected) is ASP-complete, i.e., it has a parsimonious reduction from every NP search problem (including…

Complexity of Planar Graph Orientation Consistency, Promise-Inference, and Uniqueness, with Applications to Minesweeper Variants
MIT Hardness Group, Della Hendrickson, Andy Tockman
We study three problems related to the computational complexity of the popular game Minesweeper. The first is consistency: given a set of clues, is there any arrangement of mines t…
