Abstract

We deal with the maximum cut problem on cubic graphs and we present a simple O(log n) time parallel algorithm, running on a CRCW PRAM with O(n) processors. The approximation ratio of our algorithm is 1:3 and improves the best known parallel approximation ratio, i.e. 2, in the special case of cubic graphs.
