Improved inapproximability of Max-Cut through Min-Cut

A cut is a partition of a graph's nodes into two sets, and we say that an edge crosses the cut if it connects two nodes belonging to different sets. A maximum cut is a cut that maximises the number of crossing edges. We show that for any sufficiently small ε > 0 it is NP-hard to distingu...
