This paper present a new approach to finding minimum cuts in undirected graphs. The
fundamental principle is simple: the edges in a graph's minimum cut form an extremely small …

A minimum cut is a set of edges of minimum weight whose removal disconnects a given
graph. Minimum cut algorithms historically applied duality with maximum flows and thus had …

We present an algorithm for finding the minimum cut of an undirected edge-weighted graph.
It is simple in every respect. It has a short and compact description, is easy to implement …

In the Multiway Cut problem we are given an edge-weighted graph and a subset of the
vertices called terminals, and asked for a minimum weight set of edges that separates each …

We significantly improve known time bounds for solving the minimum cut problem on
undirected graphs. We use a" semiduality" between minimum cuts and maximum spanning …

Given an undirected graph wit. h edge co&s and a subset of k nodes called terminals, a
multiway cut is a subset of edges whose removal disconnects each terminal from the rest …

We present an algorithm for finding the minimum cut of an edge-weighted graph. It is simple
in every respect. It has a short and compact description, is easy to implement and has a …

Given an undirected graph G=(V, E) with weights on the edges and a set of k terminals, Sl,
s2 9 9 sk, a mulliway cut is a set of edges whose removal disconnects every pair of …

Let λ(\calN) denote the weight of a minimum cut in an edge-weighted undirected network
\calN, and n and m denote the numbers of vertices and edges, respectively. It is known that …

The complexity of the SIMPLE MAX CUT problem is investigated for several special classes
of graphs. It is shown that this problem is NP-complete when restricted to one of the …
