Read through various proposed projects, ultimately deciding to work on the Rubiks Table problem. Tried several reductions to work towards the current goal. Worked on the initial presentation.
Current Goal: Prove minimizing parallel shuffles for the Rubiks Table problem is NP-hard.
Continued working on showing NP-hardness of minimizing parallel shuffles. I believe I have a reduction after much trial and error.
Current Goal: Prove minimizing shuffles for the Rubiks table is NP-hard in the general setting.
Got some minor results with regards to the Rubiks table problem. I started looking into some other related problems. One of which is a polyomino problem where we want to stack polyominoes such that we can always see at least one block from each.
Current Goal: Think about the polyomino problem
