We consider the problem of finding the minimum capacity cut in a directed network \(G\) with \(n\) nodes. This problem has applications to network reliability and survivability and is useful in subroutines for other network optimization problems. One can use a maximum flow problem to find a minimum
We give a simple algorithm for ÿnding a minimum T -cut. At present, all known e cient algorithms for this problem go through the computation of a Gomory-Hu tree. While our algorithm bases on the same fundamental properties of uncrossing as the previous methods, still it provides an ad hoc solution.
