We show that, for any rational p ∈ [1,∞) [p is an element of the set [1, infinity)] except p = 1, 2, unless P = NP, there is no
polynomial time algorithm which approximates the matrix p-norm to arbitrary relative precision. We
also show that, for any rational p ∈ [1,∞) [p is an element of the set [1, infinity)] including p = 1, 2, unless P = NP, there is no polynomialtime
algorithm which approximates the ∞, p [infinity, p] mixed norm to some fixed relative precision.
