用低直径图分解逼近唯一对策

Approximating Unique Games Using Low Diameter Graph Decomposition

Vedat Levi Alev, Lap Chi Lau

摘要:

当约束图允许良好的低直径图分解时,我们设计了唯一博弈的近似算法。对于$K_r$ -minor free graphs中的${\sf Max2Lin}_k$问题,当存在满足$1-\varepsilon$分数约束的指派时,我们提出了一个算法,该算法产生满足$1-O(r\varepsilon)$分数约束的指派,其近似比与字母表大小无关.一个推论是一个改进的近似算法的${\sf MaxCut}$问题的$K_r$ -小自由图。对于$K_r$ -未成年人自由图中的一般唯一游戏,我们提供了另一种算法,产生一个分配满足$1-O(r \sqrt{\varepsilon})$分数的约束。我们的方法是四舍五入的线性规划松弛找到一个最小子集的边缘相交的所有不一致的循环。我们表明,它是可以直接应用的约束图的低直径图分解技术,而不是在以前的独特的游戏算法的标签扩展图的工作。当约束图是亏格$g$时,同样的方法也适用,并且我们在${\sf Max2Lin}_k$问题中用$\log g$代替$r$,在一般问题中用$\sqrt{\log g}$代替$\sqrt{\log g}$,得到了类似的结果。前一个结果推广了Gupta-Talwar关于${\sf Max2Lin}_k$情形下唯一对策的结果,后一个结果推广了Trevisan关于一般唯一对策的结果.

英文摘要:

We design approximation algorithms for Unique Games when the constraint graph admits good low diameter graph decomposition. For the ${\sf Max2Lin}_k$ problem in $K_r$-minor free graphs, when there is an assignment satisfying $1-\varepsilon$ fraction of constraints, we present an algorithm that produces an assignment satisfying $1-O(r\varepsilon)$ fraction of constraints, with the approximation ratio independent of the alphabet size. A corollary is an improved approximation algorithm for the ${\sf MaxCut}$ problem for $K_r$-minor free graphs. For general Unique Games in $K_r$-minor free graphs, we provide another algorithm that produces an assignment satisfying $1-O(r \sqrt{\varepsilon})$ fraction of constraints. Our approach is to round a linear programming relaxation to find a minimum subset of edges that intersects all the inconsistent cycles. We show that it is possible to apply the low diameter graph decomposition technique on the constraint graph directly, rather than to work on the label extended graph as in previous algorithms for Unique Games. The same approach applies when the constraint graph is of genus $g$, and we get similar results with $r$ replaced by $\log g$ in the ${\sf Max2Lin}_k$ problem and by $\sqrt{\log g}$ in the general problem. The former result generalizes the result of Gupta-Talwar for Unique Games in the ${\sf Max2Lin}_k$ case, and the latter result generalizes the result of Trevisan for general Unique Games.
