We consider the Hypergraph-$k$-cut problem. The input consists of a hypergraph $G=(V,E)$ with non-negative hyperedge-costs $c: E\rightarrow R_+$ and a positive integer $k$. The objective is to find a least-cost subset $F\subseteq E$ such…

We present an algorithm that on input of an $n$-vertex $m$-edge weighted graph $G$ and a value $k$, produces an {\em incremental sparsifier} $\hat{G}$ with $n-1 + m/k$ edges, such that the condition number of $G$ with $\hat{G}$ is bounded…

We introduce a notion of code sparsification that generalizes the notion of cut sparsification in graphs. For a (linear) code $\mathcal{C} \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n$ of dimension $k$ a $(1 \pm \epsilon)$-sparsification of size $s$ is given…

In a hypergraph on $n$ vertices where $D$ is the maximum size of a hyperedge, there is a weighted hypergraph spectral $\varepsilon$-sparsifier with at most $O(\varepsilon^{-2} \log(D) \cdot n \log n)$ hyperedges. This improves over the…

A graph G'(V,E') is an \eps-sparsification of G for some \eps>0, if every (weighted) cut in G' is within (1\pm \eps) of the corresponding cut in G. A celebrated result of Benczur and Karger shows that for every undirected graph G, an…

For $\alpha \ge 1$, $\beta \ge 0$, and a graph $G$, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is said to be an $(\alpha, \beta)$-spanner if $\dist(u, v, H) \le \alpha \cdot \dist(u, v, G) + \beta$ holds for any pair of vertices $u$ and $v$. These type…
