The bottleneck graph partition problem is to partition the nodes of a graph into two equally sized sets, so that the maximum edge weight in the cut separating the two sets is minimum. Whereas the graph partition problem, where the sum of the edge weights in the cut is to be minimized, is NP-hard, th

โฆ Synopsis
Let G be a graph and n โฅ 2 an integer. We prove that the following are equivalent: (i) there is a partition
, and (ii) for every subset S of V (G), G \ S has at most n|S| components with the property that each of their blocks is an odd order complete graph.

This paper outlines an investigation of a class of arc-transitive graphs admitting a f inite symmetric group S n acting primitively on vertices, with vertex-stabilizer isomorphic to the wreath product S m wr S r (preserving a partition of {1, 2, . . . , n} into r parts of equal size m). Several prop
The partitioning of a rectangular grid graph with weighted vertices into p connected components such that the component of smallest weight is as heavy as possible (the max-min problem) is considered. It is shown that the problem is NP-hard for rectangles with at least three rows. A shifting algorith
