Hardness of Max-2Lin and Max-3Lin over Integers, Reals, and Large Cyclic Groups
—In 1997, H˚astad showed NP-hardness of (1 − , 1/q + δ)-approximating Max-3Lin(Zq); however it was not until 2007 that Guruswami and Raghavendra were able to show NP-hardness...

On the Hardness and Easiness of Random 4-SAT Formulas
Assuming 3-SAT formulas are hard to refute with high probability, Feige showed approximation hardness results, among others for the max bipartite clique. We extend this result in t...
