Abstract
Assouad has shown that a real-valued distance d = (dij)1 ? i < j ? n is isometrically embeddable in ?1space if and only if it belongs to the cut cone on n points. Determining if this condition holds is NP-complete. We use Assouad's result in a constructive column generation algorithm for ?1-embeddability. The subproblem is an unconstrained 0-1 quadratic program, solved by Tabu Search and Variable Neighborhood Search heuristics as well as by an exact enumerative algorithm. Computational results are reported. Several ways to approximate a distance which is not ?1-embeddable by another one which is are also studied.
