Extremal cuts of sparse random graphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For ErdH{o}s-R'enyi random graphs with average degree gamma, and uniformly random gamma-regular graph on n vertices, we prove that with high probability the size of both the Max-Cut and maximum bisection are nBig(fracgamma4+sfP∗sqrtfracgamma4+o(sqrtgamma)Big)+o(n) while the size of the minimum bisection is nBig(fracgamma4−sfP∗sqrtfracgamma4+o(sqrtgamma)Big)+o(n). Our derivation relates the free energy of the anti-ferromagnetic Ising model on such graphs to that of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, with sfP∗approx0.7632 standing for the ground state energy of the latter, expressed analytically via Parisi's formula.
