Graph Utilities Package Symbol

MinCut

MinCut[g, k]
partitions the undirected graph g into k parts where the number of edge cuts is approximately minimized.

To use MinCut, you first need to load the Graph Utilities Package using Needs["GraphUtilities`"].

MinCut treats the input as an undirected graph, and tries to find a partition of the vertices into k parts so that each part has roughly the same number of vertices, and so that the number of edges between these parts (known as the edge separator) is minimized.
