Abstract
A bisection in a graph is a cut in which the number of vertices in the two parts differ by at most 1. In this talk, we discuss lower bounds for the maximum weight of bisections of edge-weighted graphs with bounded maximum degree. Our results improve a bound of Lee, Loh, and Sudakov (J. Comb. Th. Ser. B 103 (2013)) for (unweighted) maximum bisections in graphs the maximum degree of which is either even or equals 3, and graphs of (chromatic index) Class 1. We show that a tight lower bound for maximum size of bisections in 3-regular graphs obtained by Bollob ́as and Scott (J. Graph Th. 46 (2004)) can be extended to weighted subcubic graphs. This is joint work with Gregory Gutin, Anders Yeo and Yacong Zhou.
Series This talk is part of the Combinatorics Seminar series.
