Explanation of Solution

Difference between concrete step and abstract step:

Concrete stepAbstract step
All the steps are fully specified in concrete step.Further steps are needed in abstract step.
If a step is fully specified or described in an algorithm, then there is no need to expand the steps further.If a step is not fully specified or described in an algorithm, then there is a need to expand the steps further.

Then it would mean that all problems in NP can also be solved in cubic time. If a problem can be solved using Dynamic Programming, then it is not NP-complete. Suppose X and Y are two NP-complete problems. Then, there must be a polynomial-time reduction from X to Y and also one from Y to X.
