Abstract
We introduce a graph decomposition which exists for all simple, connected graphs . The decomposition is such that each vertex in has more neighbors in than in and vice versa. is `balanced': each has the same number of neighbours in and . These decompositions arise naturally from the behavior of an associated dynamical system (`Randomized Rounding') on . Connections to judicious partitions and the \textsc{MaxCut} problem (in particular the Burer-Monteiro-Zhang heuristic) are being discussed.
