摘要：We give query-efficient algorithms for the global min-cut and the s-t cut problem in unweighted, undirected graphs. Our oracle model is inspired by the submodular function minimization problem: on query S \subset V, the oracle returns the size of the cut between S and V \ S. We provide algorithms computing an exact minimum $s$-$t$ cut in $G$ with ~{O}(n^{5/3}) queries, and computing an exact global minimum cut of G with only ~{O}(n) queries (while learning the graph requires ~{\Theta}(n^2) queries).
