Title:
Fooling polytopes
Speaker:
Abstract:
We give a pseudorandom generator that fools $m$-facet polytopes over $\{0,1\}^n$ with seed length $\mathrm{polylog}(m) \cdot \mathrm{log}(n)$. The previous best seed length had superlinear dependence on $m$. An immediate consequence is a deterministic quasipolynomial time algorithm for approximating the number of solutions to any $\{0,1\}$-integer program. Joint work with Ryan O'Donnell and Rocco Servedio.
