An exponential (matching based) neighborhood for the vehicle routing problem

Résumé

We introduce an exponential neighborhood for the Vehicle Routing Problem (vrp) with unit customers' demands, and we show that it can be explored efficiently in polynomial time by reducing its exploration to a particular case of the Restricted Complete Matching (rcm) problem that we prove to be polynomial time solvable using flow techniques. Furthermore, we show that in the general case with non-unit customers' demands the exploration of the neighborhood becomes an NP-hard problem.
