Description
Summary:© 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. We consider the bipartite unconstrained 0-1 quadratic programming problem (BQP01) which is a generalization of the well studied unconstrained 0-1 quadratic programming problem (QP01). BQP01 has numerous applications and the problem is known to be MAX SNP hard. We show that if the rank of an associated m×n cost matrix Q=( qij ) is fixed, then BQP01 can be solved in polynomial time. When Q is of rank one, we provide an O(nlogn) algorithm and this complexity reduces to O(n) with additional assumptions. Further, if qij = ai + bj for some ai and bj , then BQP01 is shown to be solvable in O(mnlogn) time. By restricting m=O(logn), we obtain yet another polynomially solvable case of BQP01 but the problem remains MAX SNP hard if m=O(nk) for a fixed k. Finally, if the minimum number of rows and columns to be deleted from Q to make the remaining matrix non-negative is O(logn), then we show that BQP01 is polynomially solvable but it is NP-hard if this number is O(nk) for any fixed k.
