摘要：
Peg solitaire is a single-player board game. The goal of the game is to remove all but one peg from the game board. Peg solitaire on graphs is a peg solitaire played on arbitrary graphs. A graph is called solvable if there exists some vertex s such that it is possible to remove all but one peg starting with sas the initial hole. In this paper, we prove that it is NP-complete to decide if a graph is solvable or not.
