''A Simple Algorithm for Constructing Szemerédi's Regularity Partition'' is a paper by Alan M. Frieze and Ravi Kannan giving an algorithmic version of the Szemerédi regularity lemma to find an ε-regular partition of a given graph. ==Formal statement of the regularity lemma== The formal statement of Szemerédi's regularity lemma requires some definitions. Let ''G'' be a graph. The ''density'' ''d''(''X'',''Y'') of a pair of disjoint vertex sets ''X'', ''Y'' is defined as ''d''(''X'',''Y'')=|''E''(''X'',''Y'')|/|''X''||''Y''| where ''E''(''X'',''Y'') denotes the set of edges having one end vertex in ''X'' and one in ''Y''. For ε>0, a pair of vertex sets ''X'' and ''Y'' is called ε-regular, if for all subsets ''A''⊆''X'' and ''B''⊆''Y'' satisfying |''A''| ≥ε |''X''| and |''B''| ≥ ε |''Y''|, we have |''d''(''X'',''Y'')-''d''(''A'',''B'')| ≤ ε. A partition of the vertex set of ''G'' into ''k'' sets, ''V''1,...,''V''''k'', is called an ''equitable'' partition if for all , ||''V''''i''|-|''V''''j''||≤1. An equitable partition is an -''regular partition'', if for all but at most pairs (''i'',''j'') the pair is -regular. Now we are ready to state the regularity lemma. Regularity lemma. For every and positive integer there exist integers and such that if is a graph with at least vertices, there exists an integer in the range ≤ ≤ and an -regular partition of the vertex set of into sets. It is a common variant in the definition of an -regular partition to require that the vertex sets all have the same size, while collecting the leftover vertices in an "error"-set whose size is at most an -fraction of the size of the vertex set of . Szemerédi's regularity lemma is one of the most powerful tools of extremal graph theory. It says that, in some sense, all graphs can be approximated by random-looking graphs. Therefore the lemma helps in proving theorems for arbitrary graphs whenever the corresponding result is easy for random graphs. The first constructive version was provided by Alon, Duke, Leffman, Rödl and Yuster.〔 〕 Subsequently Frieze and Kannan gave a different version and extended it to hypergraphs.〔 〕 The paper 〔.〕 is a nice survey on regularity lemma and its various applications. Here we will briefly describe a different construction due to Alan Frieze and Ravi Kannan that uses singular values of matrices. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Algorithmic version for Szemerédi regularity partition」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
