Abstract

In recent works for high-performance computing, computation with DNA molecules, i.e. DNA computing, has considerable attention as one of non-silicon-based computing. Watson-Crick complementarity and massive parallelism are two important features of DNA. Using the features, one can solve an NP-complete problem, which usually needs exponential time on a silicon-based computer, in a polynomial number of steps with DNA molecules. In this paper, we consider a procedure for solving minimumß-vertex separator problems in the Adleman - Lipton model. The procedure works in O(n 2) steps for minimum ß-vertex separator problems of an undirected graph with n vertices.
