The cut-set $\partial(S)$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the set of edges that have one endpoint in $S\subset V$ and the other endpoint in $V\setminus S$, and whenever $G[S]$ is connected, the cut $[S,V\setminus S]$ of $G$ is called a connected…

Graph rewriting is a popular tool for the optimisation and modification of graph expressions in domains such as compilers, machine learning and quantum computing. The underlying data structures are often port graphs - graphs with labels at…
