A recently proposed dimensional reduction approach for studying synchronization in the Kuramoto model is employed to build optimal network topologies to favor or to suppress synchronization. The approach is based in the introduction of a…

We consider approximations for computing minimum weighted cuts in directed graphs. We consider both rooted and global minimum cuts, and both edge-cuts and vertex-cuts. For these problems we give randomized Monte Carlo algorithms that…

We introduce a method for solving the Max-Cut problem using a variational algorithm and a continuous-variables quantum computing approach. The quantum circuit consists of two parts: the first one embeds a graph into a circuit using the…

We establish that in the large degree limit, the value of certain optimization problems on sparse random hypergraphs is determined by an appropriate Gaussian optimization problem. This approach was initiated in Dembo et. al.(2016) for…

In this paper, we characterize all graphs with eigenvectors of the signless Laplacian and adjacency matrices with components equal to $\{- 1, 0, 1\}.$ We extend the graph parameter max $k$-cut to square matrices and prove a general sharp…

Recently, Balla, Janzer, and Sudakov showed a lower bound on the MaxCut in terms of the vector chromatic number, recovering known results on the MaxCut of $H$-free graphs. In this note, we show that their bound is tight, providing a…

A \emph{co-bipartite chain} graph is a co-bipartite graph in which the neighborhoods of the vertices in each clique can be linearly ordered with respect to inclusion. It is known that the maximum cut problem (MaxCut) is NP-Hard in…

We introduce the $st$-cut version the Sparsest-Cut problem, where the goal is to find a cut of minimum sparsity among those separating two distinguished vertices $s,t\in V$. Clearly, this problem is at least as hard as the usual (non-$st$)…

The maximum cut problem for a quintic del Pezzo surface ${\rm Bl}_{4}(\mathbb{P}^2)$ asks: Among all partitions of the 10 exceptional curves into two disjoint sets, what is the largest possible number of pairwise intersections? In this…

Graphs are a natural representation of data from various contexts, such as social connections, the web, road networks, and many more. In the last decades, many of these networks have become enormous, requiring efficient algorithms to cut…

This paper is aimed to investigate some computational aspects of different isoperimetric problems on weighted trees. In this regard, we consider different connectivity parameters called {\it minimum normalized cuts}/{\it isoperimteric…

In the $k$-cut problem, we want to find the lowest-weight set of edges whose deletion breaks a given (multi)graph into $k$ connected components. Algorithms of Karger \& Stein can solve this in roughly $O(n^{2k})$ time. On the other hand,…

The weighted MAX k-CUT problem consists of finding a k-partition of a given weighted undirected graph G(V,E) such that the sum of the weights of the crossing edges is maximized. The problem is of particular interest as it has a multitude of…

Correlation Clustering is an elegant model that captures fundamental graph cut problems such as Min $s-t$ Cut, Multiway Cut, and Multicut, extensively studied in combinatorial optimization. Here, we are given a graph with edges labeled $+$…

We investigate the space complexity of two graph streaming problems: Max-Cut and its quantum analogue, Quantum Max-Cut. Previous work by Kapralov and Krachun [STOC `19] resolved the classical complexity of the \emph{classical} problem,…

Goemans and Williamson proposed a randomized rounding algorithm for the MAX-CUT problem with a 0.878 approximation bound in expectation. The 0.878 approximation bound remains the best-known approximation bound for this APX-hard problem.…

We give an approximation algorithm for non-uniform sparsest cut with the following guarantee: For any $\epsilon,\delta \in (0,1)$, given cost and demand graphs with edge weights $C, D$ respectively, we can find a set $T\subseteq V$ with…

We give an algorithm to find a minimum cut in an edge-weighted directed graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges in $\tilde O(n\cdot \max(m^{2/3}, n))$ time. This improves on the 30 year old bound of $\tilde O(nm)$ obtained by Hao and Orlin…

Taking Shapiro's cyclic sums $\sum_{i=1}^n x_i/(x_{i+1}+x_{i+2})$ (assuming index addition mod $n$) as a starting point, we introduce a broader class of cyclic sums, called generalized Shapiro-Diananda sums, where the denominators are…

This work presents a maximum entropy principle based algorithm for solving minimum multiway $k$-cut problem defined over static and dynamic {\em digraphs}. A multiway $k$-cut problem requires partitioning the set of nodes in a graph into…
