Abstract

We show that for every positive ε>0, unless NP⊂BPQP, it is impossible to approximate the maximum quadratic assignment problem within a factor better than 2log1-ε by a reduction from the maximum label cover problem. Then, we present an O(n)-approximation algorithm for the problem based on rounding of the linear programming relaxation often used in the state of the art exact algorithms.
