We provide a fixed parameter tractable approximation scheme for the problem of computing the shortest cut graph, that is, for any ε > 0, we show how to compute a (1 + ε) approximation of the shortest cut graph in time f(ε, g)n3.\r\nOur techniques first rely on the computation of a spanner for the problem using the technique of brick decompositions, to reduce the problem to the case of bounded tree-width. Then, to solve the bounded tree-width case, we introduce a variant of the surface-cut decomposition of Rué, Sau and Thilikos, which may be of independent interest.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"A fixed parameter tractable approximation scheme for the optimal cut graph of a surface","publisher":"Springer","intvolume":" 9294","publication_status":"published","month":"09","oa_version":"Preprint","main_file_link":[{"url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1507.01688","open_access":"1"}],"year":"2015"}
