摘要
The n-queens problem is a well-known problem in mathematics, yet a full search for n-queens solutions has been tackled until now using only simple algorithms (with the exception of the Rivin-Zabih algorithm). In this article, we discuss optimizations that mainly rely on group actions on the set of n-queens solutions. Most of our arguments deal with the case of toroidal queens; at the end, the application to the regular n-queens problem is discussed, and also the Rivin-Zabih algorithm. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
