Cut (graph theory)

Partition of a graph's nodes into 2 disjoint subsets In graph theory, a cut is a partition of the vertices of a graph into two disjoint subsets.[1] Any cut determines a cut-set, the set of edges that have one endpoint in each subset of the partition. These edges are said to cross the cut. In a connected graph, each cut-set determines a unique cut, and in some cases cuts are identified with their cut-sets rather than with their vertex partitions. In a flow network, an s–t cut is a cu...
