Cuts in Cartesian Products of Graphs (1105.3383v2)

Published 17 May 2011 in cs.DM and math.CO

Abstract: The k-fold Cartesian product of a graph G is defined as a graph on k-tuples of vertices, where two tuples are connected if they form an edge in one of the positions and are equal in the rest. Starting with G as a single edge gives Gk as a k-dimensional hypercube. We study the distributions of edges crossed by a cut in Gk across the copies of G in different positions. This is a generalization of the notion of influences for cuts on the hypercube. We show the analogues of results of Kahn, Kalai, and Linial (KKL Theorem [KahnKL88]) and that of Friedgut (Friedgut's Junta theorem [Friedgut98]), for the setting of Cartesian products of arbitrary graphs. Our proofs extend the arguments of Rossignol [Rossignol06] and of Falik and Samorodnitsky [FalikS07], to the case of arbitrary Cartesian products. We also extend the work on studying isoperimetric constants for these graphs [HoudreT96, ChungT98] to the value of semidefinite relaxations for edge-expansion. We connect the optimal values of the relaxations for computing expansion, given by various semidefinite hierarchies, for G and Gk.
