Rounding Algorithms for a Geometric Embedding of Minimum Multiway Cut
Given an undirected graph with edge costs and a subset of k ≥ 3 nodes called terminals, a multiway, or k-way, cut is a subset of the edges whose removal disconnects each termina...

Computing minimum cuts by randomized search heuristics
We study the minimum s-t-cut problem in graphs with costs on the edges in the context of evolutionary algorithms. Minimum cut problems belong to the class of basic network optimiz...

Minimum cuts and shortest homologous cycles
We describe the first algorithms to compute minimum cuts in surface-embedded graphs in near-linear time. Given an undirected graph embedded on an orientable surface of genus g, w...

Practical Parallel Algorithms for Minimum Spanning Trees
We study parallel algorithms for computing the minimum spanning tree of a weighted undirected graph G with n vertices and m edges. We consider an input graph G with m=n p, where p...

An Improved Approximation Algorithm for Multiway Cut
Given an undirected graph with edge costs and a subset of k nodes called terminals, a multiway cut is a subset of edges whose removal disconnects each terminal from the rest. Mult...
