On the Maximal Error of Spectral Approximation of Graph Bisection

چکیده
Spectral graph bisections are a popular heuristic aimed at approximating the solution of the NP-complete graph bisection problem. This technique, however, does not always provide a robust tool for graph partitioning. Using a special class of graphs, we prove that the standard spectral graph bisection can produce bisections that are far from optimal. In particular, we show that the maximum error in the spectral approximation of the optimal bisection (partition sizes exactly equal) cut for such graphs is bounded below by a constant multiple of the order of the graph squared.

Equivalent a posteriori error estimates for spectral element solutions of constrained optimal control problem in one dimension
In this paper, we study spectral element approximation for a constrained optimal control problem in one dimension. The equivalent a posteriori error estimators are derived for the control, the state and the adjoint state approximation. Such estimators can be used to construct adaptive spectral elements for the control problems.

We discuss algorithms for graph bisection which are relevant to the distribution of tasks, such as the elements and nodes of an unstructured mesh to the processors of a parallel computer. Starting with a cost function consisting of a part to ensure equal numbers of tasks for each processor, and a part to minimize communication time between processors, we derive the spectral bisection method, wh...

Given a graph G, a visual cryptography scheme based on the graph G is a method to distribute a secret image among the vertices of G, the participants, so that a subset of participants can recover the secret image if they contain an edge of G, by stacking their shares, otherwise they can obtain no information regarding the secret image. In this paper we apply maximal independent sets of the grap...
