用二次规划法求0.502 $\cdot$ MaxCut的近似值

A 0.502$\cdot$MaxCut Approximation using Quadratic Programming

Stefan Steinerberger

摘要:

研究了图$G=(V,E)$的最大割问题。该问题是NP难的,有两种主要的近似算法具有理论保证:(1)Goemans \& Williamson算法使用半定规划来提供0.878MaxCut近似(如果唯一博弈猜想成立,是在多项式时间内可以完成的最好的)和(2)Trevisan提出了一种使用谱图理论的算法,可以获得0.614MaxCut近似。我们讨论了一种新的方法,使用一个特定的二次规划,并证明其解决方案可以用来获得至少0.502MaxCut近似。该算法似乎在实践中表现良好。

英文摘要:

We study the MaxCut problem for graphs $G=(V,E)$. The problem is NP-hard, there are two main approximation algorithms with theoretical guarantees: (1) the Goemans \& Williamson algorithm uses semi-definite programming to provide a 0.878MaxCut approximation (which, if the Unique Games Conjecture is true, is the best that can be done in polynomial time) and (2) Trevisan proposed an algorithm using spectral graph theory from which a 0.614MaxCut approximation can be obtained. We discuss a new approach using a specific quadratic program and prove that its solution can be used to obtain at least a 0.502MaxCut approximation. The algorithm seems to perform well in practice.
