Abstract
We study the q -adic assignment problem. We first give an O ( n (q−1)/2) )-approximation algorithm for the Koopmans--Beckman version of the problem, improving upon the result of Barvinok. Then, we introduce a new family of instances satisfying “tensor triangle inequalities” and give a constant factor approximation algorithm for them. We show that many classical optimization problems can be modeled by q -adic assignment problems from this family. Finally, we give several integrality gap examples for the natural LP relaxations of the problem.
