Abstract

In this paper we prove, that the minimum cut algorithm presented previously by the author (Brinkmeier 07), requires only linear time with high probability, if the input graph if chosen randomly from the graphs with constant expected degree. In fact a more general lower bound for the probability of a low runtime depending on several parameters is given.
