Approximation and Inapproximability Results on Balanced Connected Partitions of Graphs

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected graph with a weight function $w: V o mathbb{Z_+}$, and let $q geq 2$ be a positive integer. For $Xsubseteq V$, let $w(X)$ denote the sum of the weights of the vertices in $X$. We consider the following problem on $G$: find a $q$-partition $P=(V_1,V_2, ldots, V_q)$ o...
