  2. Cut (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut_(graph_theory)

    A cut C = (S, T) is a partition of V of a graph G = (V, E) into two subsets S and T. The cut-set of a cut C = (S, T) is the set {(u, v) ∈ E | u ∈ S, v ∈ T} of edges that have one endpoint in S and the other endpoint in T. If s and t are specified vertices of the graph G, then an s – t cut is a cut in which s belongs to the set S and t ...

  3. Vertex separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_separator

    Let S be an (a,b)-separator, that is, a vertex subset that separates two nonadjacent vertices a and b. Then S is a minimal (a,b)-separator if no proper subset of S separates a and b. More generally, S is called a minimal separator if it is a minimal separator for some pair (a,b) of nonadjacent vertices.

  4. Glossary of graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_graph_theory

    A vertex (plural vertices) is (together with edges) one of the two basic units out of which graphs are constructed. Vertices of graphs are often considered to be atomic objects, with no internal structure. vertex cut separating set A set of vertices whose removal disconnects the graph. A one-vertex cut is called an articulation point or cut vertex.

  5. Minimum cut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_cut

    The dotted line in red represents a cut with three crossing edges. The dashed line in green represents one of the minimum cuts of this graph, crossing only two edges. [1] In graph theory, a minimum cut or min-cut of a graph is a cut (a partition of the vertices of a graph into two disjoint subsets) that is minimal in some metric.

  6. Biconnected component - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biconnected_component

    Multi-colored vertices are cut vertices, and thus belong to multiple biconnected components. In graph theory, a biconnected component or block (sometimes known as a 2-connected component) is a maximal biconnected subgraph. Any connected graph decomposes into a tree of biconnected components called the block-cut tree of the graph.

  7. Maximum cut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_cut

    An example of a maximum cut. In a graph, a maximum cut is a cut whose size is at least the size of any other cut. That is, it is a partition of the graph's vertices into two complementary sets S and T, such that the number of edges between S and T is as large as possible. Finding such a cut is known as the max-cut problem.

  8. Karger's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karger's_algorithm

    A cut (,) in an undirected graph = (,) is a partition of the vertices into two non-empty, disjoint sets =.The cutset of a cut consists of the edges {:,} between the two parts. . The size (or weight) of a cut in an unweighted graph is the cardinality of the cutset, i.e., the number of edges between the two parts

  9. Graph partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_partition

    For instance, optimizing the cut size for free group sizes puts all vertices in the same community. Additionally, cut size may be the wrong thing to minimize since a good division is not just one with small number of edges between communities. This motivated the use of Modularity (Q) [13] as a metric to optimize a balanced graph partition.
