Fast SDP Algorithms for Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The class of constraint satisfactions problems (CSPs) captures many fundamental combinatorial optimization problems such as Max Cut, Max q-Cut, Unique Games, and Max k-Sat. Recent...

On the Hardness of Approximating Multicut and Sparsest-Cut
We show that the Multicut, Sparsest-Cut, and Min-2CNF≡ Deletion problems are NP-hard to approximate within every constant factor, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture of Khot [S...

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...

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...

Approximation Resistant Predicates from Pairwise Independence
We study the approximability of predicates on k variables from a domain [q], and give a new sufficient condition for such predicates to be approximation resistant under the Unique...
