Abstract: Berman and Schnitger [10] gave a randomized reduction from approximating MAXSNP problems [24] within constant factors arbitrarily close to 1 to approximating clique within a factor of n^ε (for some ε). This reduction was further studied by Blum [11], who gave it the name randomized graph products. We show that this reduction can be made deterministic (derandomized), using random walks on expander graphs [1]. The main technical contribution of this paper is in lower bounding the... (Update)
