Semidefinite Programming Relaxations for Semialgebraic Problems
, 2001
"... A hierarchy of convex relaxations for semialgebraic problems is introduced. For questions reducible to a finite number of polynomial equalities and inequalities, it is shown how to construct a complete family of polynomially sized semidefinite programming conditions that prove infeasibility. The mai ..."

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Maximum Cut and Satisfiability Problems Using Semidefinite Programming
- Journal of the ACM
, 1995
"... 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 ..."

Interior Point Methods in Semidefinite Programming with Applications to Combinatorial Optimization
- SIAM Journal on Optimization
, 1993
"... We study the semidefinite programming problem (SDP), i.e the problem of optimization of a linear function of a symmetric matrix subject to linear equality constraints and the additional condition that the matrix be positive semidefinite. First we review the classical cone duality as specialized to S ..."

Complementarity and Nondegeneracy in Semidefinite Programming
, 1995
"... Primal and dual nondegeneracy conditions are defined for semidefinite programming. Given the existence of primal and dual solutions, it is shown that primal nondegeneracy implies a unique dual solution and that dual nondegeneracy implies a unique primal solution. The converses hold if strict complem ..."

Approximate Graph Coloring by Semidefinite Programming.
- In Proceedings of 35th Annual IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science,
, 1994
"... Abstract. We consider the problem of coloring k-colorable graphs with the fewest possible colors. We present a randomized polynomial time algorithm that colors a 3-colorable graph on n vertices with min{O(⌬ 1/3 log 1/2 ⌬ log n), O(n 1/4 log 1/2 n)} colors where ⌬ is the maximum degree of any vertex ..."
