Parameterized Algorithms for Maximum Cut with Connectivity Constraints


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We study two variants of textsc{Maximum Cut}, which we call textsc{Connected Maximum Cut} and textsc{Maximum Minimal Cut}, in this paper. In these problems, given an unweighted graph, the goal is to compute a maximum cut satisfying some connectivity requirements. Both problems are known to be NP-complete even on planar graphs whereas textsc{Maximum Cut} on planar graphs is solvable in polynomial time. We first show that these problems are NP-complete even on planar bipartite graphs and split graphs. Then we give parameterized algorithms using graph parameters such as clique-width, tree-width, and twin-cover number. Finally, we obtain FPT algorithms with respect to the solution size.
