Combinatorial Approximation Algorithms for MaxCut using Random Walks
: We give the first combinatorial approximation algorithm for MAXCUT that beats the trivial 0.5 factor by a constant. The main partitioning procedure is very intuitive, natural, an...

Combinatorial 5/6-approximation of Max Cut in graphs of maximum degree 3
The best approximation algorithm for Max Cut in graphs of maximum degree 3 uses semidefinite programming, has approximation ratio 0.9326, and its running time is (n3.5 log n) ; bu...

Improved Approximation of MAX-CUT on Graphs of Bounded Degree
We analyze the addition of a simple local improvement step to various known randomized approximation algorithms. Let ' 0:87856 denote the best approximation ratio currently k...

Integrality gaps for Sherali-Adams relaxations
We prove strong lower bounds on integrality gaps of Sherali?Adams relaxations for MAX CUT, Vertex Cover, Sparsest Cut and other problems. Our constructions show gaps for Sherali?A...
