NP-completeness of Routing Problem with Bend Constraint
Toshiyuki Hongo, Atsushi Takahashi (Tokyo Tech) VLD2015-3
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Self-Aligned Quadruple Patterning (SAQP) in which side-wall process is repeated twice is an important manufacturing technique to realize tiny routing pattern in next generation lithography, however, every routing pattern is not realized.
In order to obtain SAQP feasible routing patterns, a routing pattern generation method in which a special 3-color grid is used was proposed.
In the routing pattern generation method, routing is classified into three according to the manufacturing process of SAQP.
Among them, routing corresponding to the last manufacturing process neither allow to branch off nor to bend at several grids.
Therefore, an algorithm that obtains a path between two vertices that satisfies bend constraint is required to obtain a routing that corresponds to the last manufacturing process.
In this paper, the problem deciding whether there exists a path that satisfies the bend constraint is proved to be NP-complete in general.
