Approximating the Weighted Minimum Label $s$-$t$ Cut Problem
Peng Zhang
Abstract:In the weighted (minimum) Label s-t Cut problem, we are given a (directed or undirected) graph G = (V, E), a label set L = {ℓ 1 , ℓ 2 , . . . , ℓ q } with positive label weights {w ℓ }, a source s ∈ V and a sink t ∈ V . Each edge edge e of G has a label ℓ(e) from L. Different edges may have the same label. The problem asks to find a minimum weight label subset L ′ such that the removal of all edges with labels in L ′ disconnects s and t.The unweighted Label s-t Cut problem (i.e., every label has a unit weight)… Show more
