Title
Bisecting sparse random graphs
Abstract
Consider partitions of the vertex set of a graph G into two sets with sizes differing by at most 1: the bisection width of G is the minimum over all such partitions of the number of "cross edges" between the parts. We are interested in sparse random graphs G(n,c/n) with edge probability c/n. We show that, if c > 1n 4, then the bisection width is Omega (n) with high probability; while if c < 1n 4, then it is equal to 0 with high probability. There are corresponding threshold results for partitioning into any fixed number of parts. (C) 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
