摘要:We study the approximability of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) by linear
programming (LP) relaxations. We show that for every CSP, the approximation obtained by
a basic LP relaxation is at least as strong as the approximation obtained using relaxations
given by c ·logn/loglogn levels of the Sherali–Adams hierarchy (for some constant c > 0)
on instances of size n.
