Sommario/riassunto

This new edition of Mind Models reintroduces and renews a classic



work on 20th century composition, one that has remained relevant for over a quarter century -- and should remain a central reading for decades to come.

to the theory of complexity and approximation algorithms -- to randomized algorithms -- Derandomization -- Proof checking and non-approximability -- Proving the PCP-Theorem -- Parallel repetition of MIP(2,1) systems -- Bounds for approximating MaxLinEq3-2 and MaxEkSat -- Deriving non-approximability results by reductions -- Optimal non-approximability of MaxClique -- The hardness of approximating set cover -- Semidefinite programming and its applications to approximation algorithms -- Dense instances of hard



optimization problems -- Polynomial time approximation schemes for geometric optimization problems in euclidean metric spaces.

Sommario/riassunto

During the last few years, we have seen quite spectacular progress in the area of approximation algorithms: for several fundamental optimization problems we now actually know matching upper and lower bounds for their approximability. This textbook-like tutorial is a coherent and essentially self-contained presentation of the enormous recent progress facilitated by the interplay between the theory of probabilistically checkable proofs and aproximation algorithms. The basic concepts, methods, and results are presented in a unified way to provide a smooth introduction for newcomers. These lectures are particularly useful for advanced courses or reading groups on the topic.
