Sketching cuts in graphs and hypergraphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Sketching and streaming algorithms are in the forefront of current research directions for cut problems in graphs. In the streaming model, we show that (1−epsilon)-approximation for Max-Cut must use n1−O(epsilon) space; moreover, beating 4/5-approximation requires polynomial space. For the sketching model, we show that r-uniform hypergraphs admit a (1+epsilon)-cut-sparsifier (i.e., a weighted subhypergraph that approximately preserves all the cuts) with O(epsilon−2n(r+logn)) edges. We also make first steps towards sketching general CSPs (Constraint Satisfaction Problems).
