We propose a fixed-parameter tractable algorithm for the \textsc{Max-Cut} problem on embedded 1-planar graphs parameterized by the crossing number $k$ of the given embedding. A graph is called 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane with…
In this paper, we use machine learning to show that the Cheeger constant of a connected regular graph has a predominant linear dependence on the largest two eigenvalues of the graph spectrum. We also show that a trained deep neural network…
The Max-Cut problem is a fundamental NP-hard problem, which is attracting attention in the field of quantum computation these days. Regarding the approximation algorithm of the Max-Cut problem, algorithms based on semidefinite programming…
A common way of partitioning graphs is through minimum cuts. One drawback of classical minimum cut methods is that they tend to produce small groups, which is why more balanced variants such as normalized and ratio cuts have seen more…
We consider several semidefinite programming relaxations for the max-$k$-cut problem, with increasing complexity. The optimal solution of the weakest presented semidefinite programming relaxation has a closed form expression that includes…
Modeling information that resides on vertices of large graphs is a key problem in several real-life applications, ranging from social networks to the Internet-of-things. Signal Processing on Graphs and, in particular, graph wavelets can…
We show how 'test' vector fields may be used to give lower bounds for the Cheeger constant of a Euclidean domain (or Riemannian manifold with boundary), and hence for the lowest eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian on the domain. Also, we…
The Cheeger constant of a graph, or equivalently its coboundary expansion, quantifies the expansion of the graph. This notion assumes an implicit choice of a coefficient group, namely, $\mathbb{F}_2$. In this paper, we study Cheeger-type…
In this paper, we study eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of $p$-Laplacians with Dirichlet boundary condition on graphs. We characterize the first eigenfunction (and the maximum eigenfunction for a bipartite graph) via the sign condition. By…
The Cheeger constant of a graph is the smallest possible ratio between the size of a subgraph and the size of its boundary. It is well known that this constant must be at least $\frac{\lambda_1}{2}$, where $\lambda_1$ is the smallest…
We develop eigenvalue estimates for the Laplacians on discrete and metric graphs using different types of boundary conditions at the vertices of the metric graph. Via an explicit correspondence of the equilateral metric and discrete graph…
We consider the max-cut and max-$k$-cut problems under graph-based constraints. Our approach can handle any constraint specified using monadic second-order (MSO) logic on graphs of constant treewidth. We give a $\frac{1}{2}$-approximation…
By measured graphs we mean graphs endowed with a measure on the set of vertices. In this context, we explore the relations between the appropriate Cheeger constant and Poincar\'{e} inequalities. We prove that the so-called Cheeger…
This is an expository article presenting various results about the Cheeger problem and its connections with other relevant mathematical problems. In section 2 we synthetically describe three mathematical problems (eigenvalue estimates,…
A basic fact in algebraic graph theory is that the number of connected components in an undirected graph is equal to the multiplicity of the eigenvalue 1 in the normalized adjacency matrix of the graph. In particular, the graph is…
We present a polynomial-time $(\alpha_{GW} + \varepsilon)$-approximation algorithm for the Maximum Cut problem on interval graphs and split graphs, where $\alpha_{GW} \approx 0.878$ is the approximation guarantee of the Goemans-Williamson…
As two fundamental problems, graph cuts and graph matching have been investigated over decades, resulting in vast literature in these two topics respectively. However the way of jointly applying and solving graph cuts and matching receives…
We derive Cheeger inequalities for directed graphs and hypergraphs using the reweighted eigenvalue approach that was recently developed for vertex expansion in undirected graphs [OZ22,KLT22,JPV22]. The goal is to develop a new spectral…
Given an undirected, unweighted graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the maximum cut problem is to find a partition of the $n$ vertices into disjoint subsets $V_1$ and $V_2$ such that the number of edges between them is as large as…
The classical Cheeger's inequality relates the edge conductance $\phi$ of a graph and the second smallest eigenvalue $\lambda_2$ of the Laplacian matrix. Recently, Olesker-Taylor and Zanetti discovered a Cheeger-type inequality $\psi^2 /…
