Large independent sets in regular graphs of large girth
Let G be a d-regular graph with girth g, and let α be the independence number of G. We show that α(G) ≥ 1 2 1 − (d − 1)−2/(d−2) − (g) n where (g) → 0 as g → ∞,...

SDP-Based Algorithms for Maximum Independent Set Problems on Hypergraphs
Abstract. This paper deals with approximations of maximum independent sets in non-uniform hypergraphs of low degree. We obtain the first performance ratio that is sublinear in term...

Approximation of the Joint Spectral Radius of a Set of Matrices Using Sum of Squares
We provide an asymptotically tight, computationally efficient approximation of the joint spectral radius of a set of matrices using sum of squares (SOS) programming. The approach i...

Bayes Networks for Estimating the Number of Solutions to a CSP
The problem of counting the number of solutions to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is rephrased in terms of probability updating in Bayes networks. Approximating the proba...
