On the relationship between classes P and NP

Discrete Mathematics 2016-03-03 v1 Computational Complexity

Abstract

In this paper we discusses the relationship between the known classes P and NP. We show that the difficulties in solving problem "P versus NP" have methodological in nature. An algorithm for solving any problem is sensitive to even small changes in its formulation. As we will shown in the paper, these difficulties are exactly in the formulation of some problems of the class NP.
