Proving Integrality Gaps without Knowing the Linear Program
: Proving integrality gaps for linear relaxations of NP optimization problems is a difficult task and usually undertaken on a case-by-case basis. We initiate a more systematic approach. We prove an integrality gap of 2 − o(1) for three families of linear relaxations for VERTEX COVER, and our methods seem relevant to other problems as well.
