This approach was initiated in Dembo et. al.(2016) for extremal cuts of graphs. The usefulness of this technique is further illustrated by deriving the optimal value for Max $q$-cut on Erd\\H{o}s-R\\'enyi and random regular graphs, Max XORSAT on Erd\\H{o}s-R\\'enyi hypergraphs, and the min-bisection for the Stochastic Block Model.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-06-08T00:58:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C80", "68R10", "82B44" ], "keywords": [ "sparse random hypergraphs", "spin glasses", "appropriate gaussian optimization problem", "large degree limit", "stochastic block model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
