Note on MAX 2SAT
In this note we present an approximation algorithm for MAX 2SAT that given a (1 - ) satisfiable instance finds an assignment of variables satisfying a 1 - O( ) fraction of all co...

Exact Max 2-Sat: Easier and Faster
Prior algorithms known for exactly solving Max 2-Sat improve upon the trivial upper bound only for very sparse instances. We present new algorithms for exactly solving (in fact, c...

Balanced max 2-sat might not be the hardest
We show that, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture, it is NPhard to approximate MAX 2-SAT within LLZ + , where 0.9401 < LLZ < 0.9402 is the believed approximation ratio of t...

Improving Exact Algorithms for MAX-2-SAT
We study three new techniques which will speed up the branch-and-bound algorithm for the MAX-2-SAT problem: The first technique is a new lower bound function for the algorithm an...

Study of Lower Bound Functions for MAX-2-SAT
Recently, several lower bound functions are proposed for solving the MAX-2-SAT problem optimally in a branch-and-bound algorithm. These lower bounds improve significantly the perf...
