Talk:Minimum k-cut

Isn't the statement about metric minimum k-cuts (that they can be approximated by a factor of 3) dominated by the 2 - 2/k approximation greedy algorithm? // Cachedio (talk) 17:32, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

The problem variant you are referring to has as additional requirement that the vertex sets in the partition have predefined, given sizes. Therefore, the approximation ratios for the two different problems can not be compared directly. (In an earlier version, the formulation of the problem variant in the wiki article has been misleading.) Joerg Bader (talk) 11:26, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

|V|^{k^2} result outdated

Karger's paper shows a randomized |V|^{2k} algorithm, much faster than |V|^(k*k). An expert in the field also noted that there is a deterministic |V|^{2k} algorithm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheZuza777 (talk • contribs) 01:43, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
