We address counting and optimization variants of multicriteria global min-cut and size-constrained min-$k$-cut in hypergraphs. 1. For an $r$-rank $n$-vertex hypergraph endowed with $t$ hyperedge-cost functions, we show that the number of multiobjective min-cuts is $O(r2^{tr}n^{3t-1})$. In particular, this shows that the number of parametric min-cuts in constant rank hypergraphs for a constant number of criteria is strongly polynomial, thus resolving an open question by Aissi, Mahjoub, McCormick, and Queyranne (Math Programming, 2015). In addition, we give randomized algorithms to enumerate all multiobjective min-cuts and all pareto-optimal cuts in strongly polynomial-time. 2. We also address node-budgeted multiobjective min-cuts: For an $n$-vertex hypergraph endowed with $t$ vertex-weight functions, we show that the number of node-budgeted multiobjective min-cuts is $O(r2^{r}n^{t+2})$, where $r$ is the rank of the hypergraph, and the number of node-budgeted $b$-multiobjective min-cuts for a fixed budget-vector $b$ is $O(n^2)$. 3. We show that min-$k$-cut in hypergraphs subject to constant lower bounds on part sizes is solvable in polynomial-time for constant $k$, thus resolving an open problem posed by Queyranne. Our technique also shows that the number of optimal solutions is polynomial. All of our results build on the random contraction approach of Karger (SODA, 1993). Our techniques illustrate the versatility of the random contraction approach to address counting and algorithmic problems concerning multiobjective min-cuts and size-constrained $k$-cuts in hypergraphs.
We study the space complexity of sketching cuts and Laplacian quadratic forms of graphs. We show that any data structure which approximately stores the sizes of all cuts in an undirected graph on $n$ vertices up to a $1+epsilon$ error must use $Omega
Cut problems form one of the most fundamental classes of problems in algorithmic graph theory. For instance, the minimum cut, the minimum $s$-$t$ cut, the minimum multiway cut, and the minimum $k$-way cut are some of the commonly encountered cut prob
We consider high dimensional variants of the maximum flow and minimum cut problems in the setting of simplicial complexes and provide both algorithmic and hardness results. By viewing flows and cuts topologically in terms of the simplicial (co)bounda
Given a capacitated undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with a set of terminals $K subset V$, a mimicking network is a smaller graph $H=(V_H,E_H)$ that exactly preserves all the minimum cuts between the terminals. Specifically, the vertex set of the sparsifie
We consider the genus-one curves which arise in the cuts of the sunrise and in the elliptic double-box Feynman integrals. We compute and compare invariants of these curves in a number of ways, including Feynman parametrization, lightcone and Baikov (
