On the Complexity of Calculating Sensitivity Parameters in Boolean Programming Problems

This article shows that, for NP-hard problems, the calculation of even the stability ball of radius 1 for an optimal solution is computationally intensive (i.e., a suitable polynomial algorithm is absent when P ≠ NP). In using greedy algorithms for solving the set covering problem (knapsack problem)...

Description
Summary:This article shows that, for NP-hard problems, the calculation of even the stability ball of radius 1 for an optimal solution is computationally intensive (i.e., a suitable polynomial algorithm is absent when P ≠ NP). In using greedy algorithms for solving the set covering problem (knapsack problem) with the stability radius r = O(1) , there are polynomial algorithms for calculating the stability ball of radius r for an ln m-approximate solution (1-approximate solution).
