The Unique Games Conjecture has pinned down the approximability of all constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), showing that a natural semidefinite programming relaxation offers the optimal worst-case approximation ratio for any CSP. This elegant picture, however, does not apply for CSP instances that are perfectly satisfiable, due to the imperfect completeness inherent in the Unique Games Conjecture.This work is motivated by the pursuit of a better understanding of the approximability of perfectly satisfiable instances of CSPs. We prove that an “almost Unique” version of Label Cover can be approximated within a constant factor on satisfiable instances. Our main conceptual contribution is the formulation of a (hypergraph) version of Label Cover that we callV Label Cover. Assuming a conjecture concerning the inapproximability of V Label Cover on perfectly satisfiable instances, we prove the following implications:• There is an absolute constantc0such that fork≥ 3, given a satisfiable instance of Booleank-CSP, it is hard to find an assignment satisfying more thanc0k2/2kfraction of the constraints.• Given ak-uniform hypergraph,k≥ 2, for all ε > 0, it is hard to tell if it isq-strongly colorable or has no independent set with an ε fraction of vertices, whereq=⌈k+√k-1/2⌉.• Given ak-uniform hypergraph,k≥ 3, for all ε > 0, it is hard to tell if it is (k-1)-rainbow colorable or has no independent set with an ε fraction of vertices.
