[#R1172] Current status and unresolved remainder

claim. The cited survey presents the Unique Games conjecture as unresolved, and current public status was checked on 2026-07-31. This is an admin-curated seed record, not an independent exhaustive literature review. Prove the stated NP-hardness for every epsilon under standard polynomial-time reductions, or give a polynomial-time algorithm or complexity-theoretic argument that refutes the asserted gap hardness.

1Summary

The cited survey presents the Unique Games conjecture as unresolved, and current public status was checked on 2026-07-31. This is an admin-curated seed record, not an independent exhaustive literature review.

A complete resolution must satisfy this condition: Prove the stated NP-hardness for every epsilon under standard polynomial-time reductions, or give a polynomial-time algorithm or complexity-theoretic argument that refutes the asserted gap hardness.

Supported evidence. Replay readiness: source only.
