Abstract

Circular decomposable metrics (CDM) are sums of cut metrics that satisfy a circularity condition. A number of combinatorial optimization problems, including the traveling salesman problem, are easily solved if the underlying cost matrix represents a CDM. We give a linear time algorithm for recognizing CDMs and show that they are identical to another class of metrics: the Kalmanson metric.
