On the complexity of approximating the independent set problem
From MaRDI portal
It is shown that for some positive constant \(c\) it is not feasible to approximate the independent set (for graphs of \(n\) vertices) within a factor of \(n^ c\), provided maximum 2-satisfiability does not have a randomized polynomial time approximation scheme. Reductions preserving the quality of approximations are also studied and complete problems are exhibited.
