Approximation and Hardness Results for Label Cut and Related Problems
We investigate a natural combinatorial optimization problem called the Label Cut problem. Given an input graph G with a source s and a sink t, the edges of G are classified into ...

Ruling Out Polynomial-Time Approximation Schemes for Hard Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is the following computational problem: an instance is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal...

Walrasian Equilibrium: Hardness, Approximations and Tractable Instances
We study the complexity issues for Walrasian equilibrium in a special case of combinatorial auction, called single-minded auction, in which every participant is interested in only ...

Hardness of Approximating the Minimum Distance of a Linear Code
We show that the minimum distance of a linear code is not approximable to within any constant factor in random polynomial time (RP), unless nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) eq...
