Solving the Hamiltonian path problem with a light-based computer
In this paper we suggest the use of light for performing use- ful computations. Namely, we propose a special computational device which uses light rays for solving the Hamiltonian path problem on a di- rected graph. The device has a graph-like representation and the light is traversing it by following the routes given by the connections between nodes. In each node the rays are uniquely marked so that they can be easily identi¯ed. At the destination
