Scientific paper

One of my recent papers transforms an NP-Complete problem into the question of whether or not a feasible real solution exists to some Linear Program. The unique feature of this Linear Program is that though there is no explicit bound on the minimum required number of linear inequalities, which is most probably exponential to the size of the NP-Complete problem, the Linear Program can still be described efficiently. The reason for this efficient description is that coefficients keep repeating in some pattern, even as the number of inequalities is conveniently assumed to tend to Infinity. I discuss why this convenient assumption does not change the feasibility result of the Linear Program. I conclude with two Conjectures, which might help to make an efficient decision on the feasibility of this Linear Program.
