The Chinese Postman Problem (Introduction to Graph Theory)
This video covers Eulerian, Semi-Eulerian, and regular graphs in the Chinese Postman Problem as well as applications of graph theory. This was made for 3Blue1Brown's Summer of Math Exploration video competition (link: www.3blue1brown.com/blog/some1).
For more information about Eulerian Graphs and perhaps ways to find such trails, this is a good resource on Hierholzer’s Algorithm! (link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eulerian_path#Hierholzer's_algorithm)

    now i know that the problem is Chinese, not the postman.

    Doesn't D in the first neighborhood have 3 edges connecting to it? i.e. odd no. of edges

    At 4:00 you really should be doing ABEFDCA or 340 meters

    • @triagolnik
      @triagolnik Před rokem

      Doing so will not pass every edge, which contradicts the requirements of the problem.

  • @cannot-handle-handles

    Nice video! Would be even better with fewer sound-effects. 😅 (Edit: Moreover, the graph in the second half of the video can't come from a real-world example, because the edge lengths violate the triangle inequality (2 + 5 < 8, in particular).)

      I don't understand about the Triangle Inequality issue. Couldn't this easily happen with a curved road in a real world example? Imagine a crescent road in the shape of a semicircle with A, D, and C on the flat edge. The path from A to D through C would be shorter than the path from A to D on the crescent road with no intersections. I'd expect this to happen constantly in suburban neighbourhoods in North America.

    Thank you for this video. I wanted to know if there were any resources to learn more. I am a delivery driver and this is a topic I am interested in for more efficient routes.

    I can tell you put a lot of work into this, great job. I wish they would have covered this type of thing back in high school when I was there but they certainly did not. I have added this to a list of all SoME1 videos that I could find. czcams.com/video/MsNQtj3zVs8/video.html
