Abstract: We present randomized approximation algorithms for the maximum cut (MAX CUT) and
maximum 2-satisfiability (MAX 2SAT) problems that always deliver solutions of expected
value at least .87856 times the optimal value. These algorithms use a simple and elegant
technique that randomly rounds the solution to a nonlinear programming relaxation. This
relaxation can be interpreted both as a semidefinite program and as an eigenvalue minimization
problem. We then show how to derandomize the algorithm to... (Update)
