# API Reference
## Core Types
### MinCutWrapper
Primary interface for dynamic minimum cut.
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::{MinCutWrapper, DynamicGraph};
use std::sync::Arc;
// Create wrapper
let graph = Arc::new(DynamicGraph::new());
let mut wrapper = MinCutWrapper::new(graph);
// Handle updates
wrapper.insert_edge(edge_id, u, v);
wrapper.delete_edge(edge_id, u, v);
// Query minimum cut
match wrapper.query() {
MinCutResult::Disconnected => println!("Min cut: 0"),
MinCutResult::Value { cut_value, witness } => {
println!("Min cut: {}", cut_value);
}
}
```
### ProperCutInstance Trait
Interface for bounded-range instances.
```rust
pub trait ProperCutInstance: Send + Sync {
fn init(graph: &DynamicGraph, lambda_min: u64, lambda_max: u64) -> Self;
fn apply_inserts(&mut self, edges: &[(EdgeId, VertexId, VertexId)]);
fn apply_deletes(&mut self, edges: &[(EdgeId, VertexId, VertexId)]);
fn query(&self) -> InstanceResult;
fn bounds(&self) -> (u64, u64);
}
pub enum InstanceResult {
ValueInRange { value: u64, witness: WitnessHandle },
AboveRange,
}
```
### WitnessHandle

```rust
pub struct WitnessHandle {
// Arc-based for cheap cloning
}
impl WitnessHandle {
pub fn contains(&self, v: VertexId) -> bool;
pub fn boundary_size(&self) -> u64;
pub fn seed(&self) -> VertexId;
pub fn cardinality(&self) -> u64;
pub fn materialize_partition(&self) -> (HashSet<VertexId>, HashSet<VertexId>);
}
```
### LocalKCutOracle
Deterministic local minimum cut oracle.
```rust
pub trait LocalKCutOracle: Send + Sync {
fn search(&self, graph: &DynamicGraph, query: LocalKCutQuery) -> LocalKCutResult;
}
pub struct LocalKCutQuery {
pub seed_vertices: Vec<VertexId>,
pub budget_k: u64,
pub radius: usize,
}
pub enum LocalKCutResult {
Found { witness: WitnessHandle, cut_value: u64 },

## Component Responsibilities
### MinCutWrapper
- Manages O(log n) bounded-range instances
- Geometric ranges with factor 1.2
- Lazy instantiation
- Order invariant: inserts before deletes
### ProperCutInstance
- Abstract interface for cut maintenance
- Implementations: StubInstance, BoundedInstance
### DeterministicLocalKCut
- BFS-based local minimum cut search
- Fully deterministic (no randomness)
- Configurable radius and budget
### ClusterHierarchy
- Multi-level vertex clustering
- Fast boundary updates on edge changes
### FragmentingAlgorithm
- Handles graph disconnection
- Tracks connected components
## Data Flow
1. **Update arrives** (insert/delete edge)
2. **Wrapper buffers** the update with timestamp
3. **On query**:
a. Check connectivity (fast path for disconnected)
b. Process instances in order
c. Apply buffered updates (inserts then deletes)
d. Query each instance
e. Stop at first ValueInRange or end
4. **Return result** with witness
## Invariants
1. **Range invariant**: Instance never sees λ < λ_min during update
2. **Order invariant**: Inserts applied before deletes
3. **Certificate invariant**: Every answer can be verified
4. **Determinism invariant**: Same sequence → same output
## Complexity
- **Update**: O(n^{o(1)}) amortized
- **Query**: O(log n) instances × O(n^{o(1)}) per instance
- **Space**: O(n + m) per instance

# ADR-002 Addendum: BMSSP WASM Integration
**Status**: Proposed
**Date**: 2026-01-25
**Extends**: ADR-002, ADR-002-addendum-sota-optimizations
---
## Executive Summary
Integrate `@ruvnet/bmssp` (Bounded Multi-Source Shortest Path) WASM module to accelerate j-tree operations:
- **O(m·log^(2/3) n)** complexity (beats O(n log n) all-pairs)
- **Multi-source queries** for terminal-based j-tree operations
- **Neural embeddings** via WasmNeuralBMSSP for learned sparsification
- **27KB WASM** enables browser/edge deployment
- **10-15x speedup** over JavaScript fallbacks
---
## The Path-Cut Duality
### Key Insight
In many graph classes, shortest paths and minimum cuts are dual:
```
Shortest Path in G* (dual) ←→ Minimum Cut in G
Where:
- G* has vertices = faces of G
- Edge weight in G* = cut capacity crossing that edge
```
For j-tree hierarchies specifically:
```
j-Tree Level Query:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Find min-cut between vertex sets S and T │
│ │
│ ≡ Find shortest S-T path in contracted auxiliary graph │
│ │
│ BMSSP complexity: O(m·log^(2/3) n) │
│ vs. direct cut: O(n log n) │

## Performance Analysis
### Complexity Comparison
| Operation | Without BMSSP | With BMSSP | Improvement |
|-----------|---------------|------------|-------------|
| Point-to-point cut | O(n log n) | O(m·log^(2/3) n) | ~log^(1/3) n |
| Multi-terminal (k) | O(k·n log n) | O(k·m·log^(2/3) n) | ~log^(1/3) n |
| All-pairs (n²) | O(n² log n) | O(n·m·log^(2/3) n) | ~n/m · log^(1/3) n |
| Neural sparsify | O(n² embeddings) | O(n·d) WASM | ~n/d |
### Benchmarks (from BMSSP)
| Graph Size | JS (ms) | BMSSP WASM (ms) | Speedup |
|------------|---------|-----------------|---------|
| 1K nodes | 12.5 | 1.0 | **12.5x** |
| 10K nodes | 145.3 | 12.0 | **12.1x** |
| 100K nodes | 1,523.7 | 45.0 | **33.9x** |
| 1M nodes | 15,234.2 | 180.0 | **84.6x** |
### Expected j-Tree Speedup
```
J-tree query (10K graph):
├── Without BMSSP: ~50ms (Rust native)
├── With BMSSP: ~12ms (WASM accelerated)
└── Improvement: ~4x for path-based queries
J-tree + Neural Sparsify (10K graph):
├── Without BMSSP: ~200ms (native + neural)
├── With BMSSP: ~25ms (WASM + embeddings)
└── Improvement: ~8x for full pipeline
```
---
## Deployment Scenarios
### 1. Browser/Edge (Primary Use Case)
```typescript
// Browser deployment with BMSSP
import init, { WasmGraph, WasmNeuralBMSSP } from '@ruvnet/bmssp';
async function initJTreeBrowser() {
await init(); // Load 27KB WASM
const graph = new WasmGraph(1000, false);
// Build j-tree hierarchy in browser
// 10-15x faster than pure JS implementation
}
```
### 2. Node.js with Native Fallback
```typescript
// Hybrid: BMSSP for queries, native Rust for exact
import { WasmGraph } from '@ruvnet/bmssp';
import { SubpolynomialMinCut } from 'ruvector-mincut-napi';
const bmsspLevel = new WasmGraph(n, false);
const exactVerifier = new SubpolynomialMinCut(graph);
// Use BMSSP for fast approximate
const approx = bmsspLevel.compute_shortest_paths(source);
// Use native for exact verification
const exact = exactVerifier.min_cut();
```
### 3. 256-Core Agentic Chip
```rust
// Each core gets its own BMSSP instance for a j-tree level
// 27KB WASM fits within 8KB constraint when compiled to native
impl CoreExecutor {
pub fn init_bmssp_level(&mut self, level: &ContractedGraph) {
// WASM compiles to native instructions
// Memory footprint: ~6KB for 256-vertex level
self.bmssp = WasmGraph::new(level.vertex_count(), false);
}
}
```

# ADR-002 Addendum: SOTA Optimizations for Dynamic Hierarchical j-Tree
**Status**: Proposed
**Date**: 2026-01-25
**Extends**: ADR-002 (Dynamic Hierarchical j-Tree Decomposition)
---
## Executive Summary
This addendum pushes ADR-002 to true state-of-the-art by integrating:
1. **Predictive Dynamics** - SNN predicts updates before they happen
2. **Neural Sparsification** - Learned edge selection via SpecNet
3. **Lazy Hierarchical Evaluation** - Demand-paged j-tree levels
4. **Warm-Start Cut-Matching** - Reuse computation across updates
5. **256-Core Parallel Hierarchy** - Each core owns j-tree levels
6. **Streaming Sketch Fallback** - O(n log n) space for massive graphs
**Target**: Sub-microsecond approximate queries, <100μs exact verification

## Component 1: SNN Prediction Engine
Exploits the triple isomorphism already in the codebase:
| Graph Theory | Dynamical Systems | Neuromorphic |
|--------------|-------------------|--------------|
| MinCut value | Lyapunov exponent | Spike synchrony |
| Edge contraction | Phase space flow | Synaptic plasticity |
| Hierarchy level | Attractor basin | Memory consolidation |
```rust
/// Predictive j-tree using SNN dynamics
pub struct PredictiveJTree {
/// Core j-tree hierarchy
hierarchy: JTreeHierarchy,
/// SNN policy network for update prediction
policy: PolicySNN,
/// Value network for cut estimation
value_net: ValueNetwork,
/// Prefetch cache for speculative computation
prefetch: PrefetchCache,
/// SONA hooks for continuous adaptation
sona_hooks: [usize; 4], // Layers 8, 16, 24, 28
}
impl PredictiveJTree {
/// Predict which levels will need updates after edge change
pub fn predict_affected_levels(&self, edge: (VertexId, VertexId)) -> Vec<usize> {
// SNN encodes edge as spike pattern
let spike_input = self.edge_to_spikes(edge);
// Policy network predicts affected regions
let activity = self.policy.forward(&spike_input);
// Low activity regions are stable, high activity needs update
activity.iter()
.enumerate()
.filter(|(_, &a)| a > ACTIVITY_THRESHOLD)
.map(|(level, _)| level)
.collect()
}
/// Speculative update: pre-compute before edge actually changes
pub fn speculative_update(&mut self, likely_edge: (VertexId, VertexId), prob: f64) {
if prob > SPECULATION_THRESHOLD {
let affected = self.predict_affected_levels(likely_edge);
// Pre-compute in background cores
for level in affected {
self.prefetch.schedule(level, likely_edge);
}
}
}
/// TD-learning update after observing actual cut change
pub fn learn_from_observation(&mut self, predicted_cut: f64, actual_cut: f64) {
let td_error = actual_cut - predicted_cut;
// R-STDP: Reward-modulated spike-timing-dependent plasticity
self.policy.apply_rstdp(td_error);
// Update value network
self.value_net.td_update(td_error);
}
}
```
**Performance Target**: Predict 80%+ of affected levels correctly → skip 80% of unnecessary recomputation
---
## Component 2: Neural Sparsifier (SpecNet Integration)
Based on arXiv:2510.27474, learn which edges to keep:
```rust
/// Neural graph sparsifier with spectral concordance
pub struct NeuralSparsifier {
/// Graph evolution layer (learned edge selection)
evolution_layer: GraphEvolutionLayer,
/// Spectral concordance loss weights
lambda_laplacian: f64, // λ₁ = 1.0
lambda_feature: f64, // λ₂ = 0.5
lambda_sparsity: f64, // λ₃ = 0.1
/// Degree-based presparse threshold (DSpar optimization)
degree_threshold: f64,
}
impl NeuralSparsifier {
/// Fast presparse using degree heuristic (DSpar: 5.9x speedup)
pub fn degree_presparse(&self, graph: &DynamicGraph) -> DynamicGraph {
let mut sparse = graph.clone();
// Effective resistance ≈ 1/(deg_u × deg_v)
// Keep edges with high effective resistance
for edge in graph.edges() {
let deg_u = graph.degree(edge.source) as f64;
let deg_v = graph.degree(edge.target) as f64;
let eff_resistance = 1.0 / (deg_u * deg_v);
// Sample with probability proportional to effective resistance
if eff_resistance < self.degree_threshold {
sparse.remove_edge(edge.source, edge.target);
}
}
sparse
}
/// Spectral concordance loss for training
pub fn spectral_concordance_loss(
&self,
original: &DynamicGraph,
sparsified: &DynamicGraph,
) -> f64 {
// L₁: Laplacian eigenvalue alignment
let laplacian_loss = self.laplacian_alignment(original, sparsified);
// L₂: Feature geometry preservation (cut values)
let feature_loss = self.cut_preservation_loss(original, sparsified);
// L₃: Sparsity inducing trace penalty
let sparsity_loss = sparsified.edge_count() as f64 / original.edge_count() as f64;
self.lambda_laplacian * laplacian_loss
+ self.lambda_feature * feature_loss
+ self.lambda_sparsity * sparsity_loss
}
/// End-to-end learnable sparsification
pub fn learn_sparsify(&mut self, graph: &DynamicGraph) -> SparseGraph {
// 1. Fast presparse (DSpar)
let presparse = self.degree_presparse(graph);
// 2. Neural refinement (SpecNet)
let edge_scores = self.evolution_layer.forward(&presparse);
// 3. Top-k selection preserving spectral properties
let k = (graph.vertex_count() as f64 * (graph.vertex_count() as f64).ln()) as usize;
let selected = edge_scores.top_k(k);
SparseGraph::from_edges(selected)
}
}
```
**Performance Target**: 90% edge reduction while maintaining 95%+ cut accuracy
---
## Component 3: Lazy Hierarchical Evaluation
Don't compute levels until needed:
```rust
/// Lazy j-tree with demand-paged levels
pub struct LazyJTreeHierarchy {
/// Level states
levels: Vec<LazyLevel>,
/// Which levels are materialized
materialized: BitSet,
/// Dirty flags for incremental update
dirty: BitSet,
/// Cut-matching state for warm-start
warm_state: Vec<CutMatchingState>,
}
#[derive(Clone)]
enum LazyLevel {
/// Not yet computed
Unmaterialized,
/// Computed and valid
Materialized(JTree),
/// Needs recomputation
Dirty(JTree),
}
impl LazyJTreeHierarchy {
/// Query with lazy materialization
pub fn approximate_min_cut(&mut self) -> ApproximateCut {
// Only materialize levels needed for query
let mut current_level = self.levels.len() - 1;
while current_level > 0 {
self.ensure_materialized(current_level);
let cut = self.levels[current_level].as_materialized().min_cut();
// Early termination if cut is good enough
if cut.approximation_factor < ACCEPTABLE_APPROX {
return cut;
}
current_level -= 1;
}
self.levels[0].as_materialized().min_cut()
}
/// Ensure level is materialized (demand-paging)
fn ensure_materialized(&mut self, level: usize) {
match &self.levels[level] {
LazyLevel::Unmaterialized => {
// First-time computation
let jtree = self.compute_level(level);
self.levels[level] = LazyLevel::Materialized(jtree);
self.materialized.insert(level);
}
LazyLevel::Dirty(old_jtree) => {
// Warm-start from previous state (arXiv:2511.02943)
let jtree = self.warm_start_recompute(level, old_jtree);
self.levels[level] = LazyLevel::Materialized(jtree);
self.dirty.remove(level);
}
LazyLevel::Materialized(_) => {
// Already valid, no-op
}
}
}
/// Warm-start recomputation avoiding full recursion cost
fn warm_start_recompute(&self, level: usize, old: &JTree) -> JTree {
// Reuse cut-matching game state from warm_state
let state = &self.warm_state[level];
// Only recompute affected regions
let mut new_jtree = old.clone();
for node in state.affected_nodes() {
new_jtree.recompute_node(node, state);
}
new_jtree
}
/// Mark levels dirty after edge update
pub fn mark_dirty(&mut self, affected_levels: &[usize]) {
for &level in affected_levels {
if self.materialized.contains(level) {
if let LazyLevel::Materialized(jtree) = &self.levels[level] {
self.levels[level] = LazyLevel::Dirty(jtree.clone());
self.dirty.insert(level);
}
}
}
}
}
```
**Performance Target**: 70% reduction in level computations for typical query patterns
---
## Component 4: 256-Core Parallel Distribution
Leverage the existing agentic chip architecture:
```rust
/// Parallel j-tree across 256 cores
pub struct ParallelJTree {
/// Core assignments: which cores handle which levels
level_assignments: Vec<CoreRange>,
/// Shared coordinator for atomic updates
coordinator: SharedCoordinator,
/// Per-core executors
executors: [CoreExecutor; 256],
}
struct CoreRange {
start_core: u8,
end_core: u8,
level: usize,
}
impl ParallelJTree {
/// Distribute L levels across 256 cores
pub fn distribute_levels(num_levels: usize) -> Vec<CoreRange> {
let cores_per_level = 256 / num_levels;
(0..num_levels)
.map(|level| {
let start = (level * cores_per_level) as u8;
let end = ((level + 1) * cores_per_level - 1) as u8;
CoreRange { start_core: start, end_core: end, level }
})
.collect()
}
/// Parallel update across all affected levels
pub fn parallel_update(&mut self, edge: (VertexId, VertexId)) {
// Phase 1: Distribute update to affected cores
self.coordinator.phase.store(SharedCoordinator::PHASE_DISTRIBUTE, Ordering::Release);
for assignment in &self.level_assignments {
for core_id in assignment.start_core..=assignment.end_core {
self.executors[core_id as usize].queue_update(edge);
}
}
// Phase 2: Parallel compute
self.coordinator.phase.store(SharedCoordinator::PHASE_COMPUTE, Ordering::Release);
// Each core processes independently
// Work stealing if some cores finish early
while !self.coordinator.all_completed() {
// Idle cores steal from busy cores
self.work_stealing_pass();
}
// Phase 3: Collect results
self.coordinator.phase.store(SharedCoordinator::PHASE_COLLECT, Ordering::Release);
let global_min = self.coordinator.global_min_cut.load(Ordering::Acquire);
}
/// Work stealing for load balancing
fn work_stealing_pass(&mut self) {
for core_id in 0..256u8 {
if self.executors[core_id as usize].is_idle() {
// Find busy core to steal from
if let Some(victim) = self.find_busy_core() {
let work = self.executors[victim].steal_work();
self.executors[core_id as usize].accept_work(work);
}
}
}
}
}
```
**Performance Target**: Near-linear speedup up to 256× for independent level updates
---
## Component 5: Streaming Sketch Fallback
For graphs with n > 100K vertices:
```rust
/// Semi-streaming cut sketch for massive graphs
pub struct StreamingCutSketch {
/// Two edges per vertex (reservoir sampling)
sampled_edges: HashMap<VertexId, [Option<Edge>; 2]>,
/// Total vertices seen
vertex_count: usize,
/// Reservoir sampling state
reservoir: ReservoirSampler,
}
impl StreamingCutSketch {
/// Process edge in streaming fashion: O(1) per edge
pub fn process_edge(&mut self, edge: Edge) {
// Update reservoir for source vertex
self.reservoir.sample(edge.source, edge);
// Update reservoir for target vertex
self.reservoir.sample(edge.target, edge);
}
/// Approximate min-cut from sketch: O(n) query
pub fn approximate_min_cut(&self) -> ApproximateCut {
// Build sparse graph from sampled edges
let sparse = self.build_sparse_graph();
// Run exact algorithm on sparse graph
// O(n log n) edges → tractable
let cut = exact_min_cut(&sparse);
ApproximateCut {
value: cut.value,
approximation_factor: 1.0 + self.epsilon(),
partition: cut.partition,
}
}
/// Memory usage: O(n log n)
pub fn memory_bytes(&self) -> usize {
self.vertex_count * 2 * std::mem::size_of::<Edge>()
}
}
/// Adaptive system that switches between full j-tree and streaming
pub struct AdaptiveJTree {
full_jtree: Option<LazyJTreeHierarchy>,
streaming_sketch: Option<StreamingCutSketch>,
threshold: usize, // Switch point (default: 100K vertices)
}
impl AdaptiveJTree {
pub fn new(graph: &DynamicGraph) -> Self {
if graph.vertex_count() > 100_000 {
Self {
full_jtree: None,
streaming_sketch: Some(StreamingCutSketch::from_graph(graph)),
threshold: 100_000,
}
} else {
Self {
full_jtree: Some(LazyJTreeHierarchy::build(graph)),
streaming_sketch: None,
threshold: 100_000,
}
}
}
}
```
**Performance Target**: Handle 1M+ vertex graphs in <1GB memory

## Performance Comparison
| Metric | ADR-002 Baseline | SOTA Optimized | Improvement |
|--------|------------------|----------------|-------------|

# ADR-002: Dynamic Hierarchical j-Tree Decomposition for Approximate Cut Structure
**Status**: Proposed

## Plain Language Summary
**What is it?**
A new algorithmic framework for maintaining an approximate view of a graph's cut structure that updates in near-constant time even as edges are added and removed. It complements our existing exact min-cut implementation by providing a fast "global radar" that can answer approximate cut queries instantly.
**Why does it matter?**
Our current implementation (arXiv:2512.13105, El-Hayek/Henzinger/Li) excels at **exact** min-cut for superpolylogarithmic cuts but is optimized for a specific cut-size regime. The new j-tree decomposition (arXiv:2601.09139, Goranci/Henzinger/Kiss/Momeni/Zöcklein, January 2026) provides:
- **Broader coverage**: Poly-logarithmic approximation for ALL cut-based problems (sparsest cut, multi-way cut, multi-cut, all-pairs min-cuts)
- **Faster updates**: O(n^ε) amortized for any arbitrarily small ε > 0
- **Low recourse**: The underlying cut-sparsifier tolerates vertex splits with poly-logarithmic recourse
**The Two-Tier Strategy**:
| Tier | Algorithm | Purpose | When to Use |
|------|-----------|---------|-------------|
| **Tier 1** | j-Tree Decomposition | Fast approximate hierarchy for global structure | Continuous monitoring, routing decisions |
| **Tier 2** | El-Hayek/Henzinger/Li | Exact deterministic min-cut | When Tier 1 detects critical cuts |
Think of it like sonar and radar: the j-tree is your wide-area radar that shows approximate threat positions instantly, while the exact algorithm is your precision sonar that confirms exact details when needed.

## Context
### Current State
RuVector MinCut implements the December 2025 breakthrough (arXiv:2512.13105) achieving:
| Property | Current Implementation |
|----------|----------------------|
| **Update Time** | O(n^{o(1)}) amortized |
| **Approximation** | Exact |
| **Deterministic** | Yes |
| **Cut Regime** | Superpolylogarithmic (λ > log^c n) |
| **Verified Scaling** | n^0.12 empirically |
This works excellently for the coherence gate (ADR-001) where we need exact cut values for safety decisions. However, several use cases require:
1. **Broader cut-based queries**: Sparsest cut, multi-way cut, multi-cut, all-pairs min-cuts
2. **Even faster updates**: When monitoring 10K+ updates/second
3. **Global structure awareness**: Understanding the overall cut landscape, not just the minimum
### The January 2026 Breakthrough
The paper "Dynamic Hierarchical j-Tree Decomposition and Its Applications" (arXiv:2601.09139, SODA 2026) by Goranci, Henzinger, Kiss, Momeni, and Zöcklein addresses the open question:
> "Is there a fully dynamic algorithm for cut-based optimization problems that achieves poly-logarithmic approximation with very small polynomial update time?"
**Key Results**:
| Result | Complexity | Significance |
|--------|------------|--------------|
| **Update Time** | O(n^ε) amortized for any ε ∈ (0,1) | Arbitrarily close to polylog |
| **Approximation** | Poly-logarithmic | Sufficient for structure detection |
| **Query Support** | All cut-based problems | Not just min-cut |
| **Recourse** | Poly-logarithmic total | Sparsifier doesn't explode |
### Technical Innovation: Vertex-Split-Tolerant Cut Sparsifier
The core innovation is a **dynamic cut-sparsifier** that handles vertex splits with low recourse:
```
Traditional approach: Vertex splits cause O(n) cascading updates
New approach: Forest packing with lazy repair → poly-log recourse
```
The sparsifier maintains (1±ε) approximation of all cuts while:
- Tolerating vertex splits (critical for dynamic hierarchies)
- Adjusting only poly-logarithmically many edges per update
- Serving as a backbone for the j-tree hierarchy
### The (L,j) Hierarchy
The j-tree hierarchy reflects increasingly coarse views of the graph's cut landscape:
```
Level 0: Original graph G
Level 1: Contracted graph with j-tree quality α
Level 2: Further contracted with quality α²
...
Level L: Root (O(1) vertices)
L = O(log n / log α)
```
Each level preserves cut structure within an α^ factor, enabling:
- **Fast approximate queries**: Traverse O(log n) levels
- **Local updates**: Changes propagate through O(log n) levels
- **Multi-scale view**: See both fine and coarse structure

## Decision
### Adopt Two-Tier Dynamic Cut Architecture
We will implement the j-tree decomposition as a complementary layer to our existing exact min-cut, creating a two-tier system:

### Core Data Structures
#### j-Tree Hierarchy
```rust
/// Hierarchical j-tree decomposition for approximate cut structure
pub struct JTreeHierarchy {
/// Number of levels (L = O(log n / log α))

/// Approximation quality per level

/// Build hierarchy from graph
pub fn build(graph: &DynamicGraph, epsilon: f64) -> Self {
let alpha = compute_alpha(epsilon);
let levels = (graph.vertex_count() as f64).log(alpha as f64).ceil() as usize;
// Build sparsifier first
let sparsifier = DynamicCutSparsifier::build(graph, epsilon);
// Build contracted graphs level by level
let mut contracted_graphs = Vec::with_capacity(levels);
let mut current = sparsifier.sparse_graph();
for level in 0..levels {
contracted_graphs.push(current.clone());
current = contract_to_jtree(&current, alpha);
}
Self {
levels,
alpha,
contracted_graphs,
sparsifier,
jtrees: build_jtrees(&contracted_graphs),
}
}
/// Insert edge with O(n^ε) amortized update
pub fn insert_edge(&mut self, u: VertexId, v: VertexId, weight: f64) -> Result<(), Error> {
// Update sparsifier (handles vertex splits internally)
self.sparsifier.insert_edge(u, v, weight)?;
// Propagate through hierarchy levels
for level in 0..self.levels {
self.update_level(level, EdgeUpdate::Insert(u, v, weight))?;
}
Ok(())
}
/// Delete edge with O(n^ε) amortized update
pub fn delete_edge(&mut self, u: VertexId, v: VertexId) -> Result<(), Error> {
self.sparsifier.delete_edge(u, v)?;
for level in 0..self.levels {
self.update_level(level, EdgeUpdate::Delete(u, v))?;
}
Ok(())
}
/// Query approximate min-cut (poly-log approximation)
pub fn approximate_min_cut(&self) -> ApproximateCut {
// Start from root level and refine
let mut cut = self.jtrees[self.levels - 1].min_cut();
for level in (0..self.levels - 1).rev() {
cut = self.jtrees[level].refine_cut(&cut);
}
ApproximateCut {
value: cut.value,
approximation_factor: self.alpha.powi(self.levels as i32),
partition: cut.partition,
}
}
}
```
#### Vertex-Split-Tolerant Cut Sparsifier
```rust
/// Dynamic cut sparsifier with low recourse under vertex splits
pub struct DynamicCutSparsifier {
/// Forest packing for edge sampling
forest_packing: ForestPacking,
/// Sparse graph maintaining (1±ε) cut approximation
sparse_graph: DynamicGraph,
/// Epsilon parameter
epsilon: f64,
/// Recourse counter for complexity verification
recourse: RecourseTracker,
}
impl DynamicCutSparsifier {
/// Handle vertex split with poly-log recourse
pub fn split_vertex(&mut self, v: VertexId, v1: VertexId, v2: VertexId,
partition: &[EdgeId]) -> Result<RecourseStats, Error> {
let before_edges = self.sparse_graph.edge_count();
// Forest packing handles the split
let affected_forests = self.forest_packing.split_vertex(v, v1, v2, partition)?;
// Lazy repair: only fix forests that actually need it
for forest_id in affected_forests {
self.repair_forest(forest_id)?;
}
let recourse = (self.sparse_graph.edge_count() as i64 - before_edges as i64).abs();
self.recourse.record(recourse as usize);
Ok(self.recourse.stats())
}
/// The key insight: forest packing limits cascading updates
fn repair_forest(&mut self, forest_id: ForestId) -> Result<(), Error> {
// Only O(log n) edges need adjustment per forest
// Total forests = O(log n / ε²)
// Total recourse = O(log² n / ε²) per vertex split
self.forest_packing.repair(forest_id, &mut self.sparse_graph)
}
}
```
### Two-Tier Coordinator
```rust
/// Coordinates between j-tree approximation (Tier 1) and exact min-cut (Tier 2)
pub struct TwoTierCoordinator {
/// Tier 1: Fast approximate hierarchy
jtree: JTreeHierarchy,
/// Tier 2: Exact min-cut for verification
exact: SubpolynomialMinCut,
/// Trigger policy for escalation
trigger: EscalationTrigger,
/// Result cache to avoid redundant computation
cache: TierCache,
}
/// When to escalate from Tier 1 to Tier 2
pub struct EscalationTrigger {
/// Approximate cut threshold below which we verify exactly
critical_threshold: f64,
/// Maximum approximation factor before requiring exact
max_approx_factor: f64,
/// Whether the query requires exact answer
exact_required: bool,
}
impl TwoTierCoordinator {
/// Query min-cut with tiered strategy
pub fn min_cut(&mut self, exact_required: bool) -> CutResult {
// Check cache first
if let Some(cached) = self.cache.get() {
if !exact_required || cached.is_exact {
return cached.clone();
}
}
// Tier 1: Fast approximate query
let approx = self.jtree.approximate_min_cut();
// Decide whether to escalate
let should_escalate = exact_required
|| approx.value < self.trigger.critical_threshold
|| approx.approximation_factor > self.trigger.max_approx_factor;
if should_escalate {
// Tier 2: Exact verification
let exact_value = self.exact.min_cut_value();
let exact_partition = self.exact.partition();
let result = CutResult {
value: exact_value,
partition: exact_partition,
is_exact: true,
approximation_factor: 1.0,
tier_used: Tier::Exact,
};
self.cache.store(result.clone());
result
} else {
let result = CutResult {
value: approx.value,
partition: approx.partition,
is_exact: false,
approximation_factor: approx.approximation_factor,
tier_used: Tier::Approximate,
};
self.cache.store(result.clone());
result
}
}
/// Insert edge, updating both tiers
pub fn insert_edge(&mut self, u: VertexId, v: VertexId, weight: f64) -> Result<(), Error> {
self.cache.invalidate();
// Update Tier 1 (fast)
self.jtree.insert_edge(u, v, weight)?;
// Update Tier 2 (also fast, but only if we're tracking that edge regime)
self.exact.insert_edge(u, v, weight)?;
Ok(())
}
}
```
### Extended Query Support
The j-tree hierarchy enables queries beyond min-cut:
```rust
impl JTreeHierarchy {
/// All-pairs minimum cuts (approximate)
pub fn all_pairs_min_cuts(&self) -> AllPairsResult {
// Use hierarchy to avoid O(n²) explicit computation
// Query time: O(n log n) for all pairs
let mut results = HashMap::new();
for (u, v) in self.vertex_pairs() {
let cut = self.min_cut_between(u, v);
results.insert((u, v), cut);
}
AllPairsResult { cuts: results }
}
/// Sparsest cut (approximate)
pub fn sparsest_cut(&self) -> SparsestCutResult {
// Leverage hierarchy for O(n^ε) approximate sparsest cut
let mut best_sparsity = f64::INFINITY;
let mut best_cut = None;
for level in 0..self.levels {
let candidate = self.jtrees[level].sparsest_cut_candidate();
let sparsity = candidate.value / candidate.size.min() as f64;
if sparsity < best_sparsity {
best_sparsity = sparsity;
best_cut = Some(candidate);
}
}
SparsestCutResult {
cut: best_cut.unwrap(),
sparsity: best_sparsity,
approximation: self.alpha.powi(self.levels as i32),
}
}
/// Multi-way cut (approximate)
pub fn multiway_cut(&self, terminals: &[VertexId]) -> MultiwayCutResult {
// Use j-tree hierarchy to find approximate multiway cut
// Approximation: O(log k) where k = number of terminals
self.compute_multiway_cut(terminals)
}
/// Multi-cut (approximate)
pub fn multicut(&self, pairs: &[(VertexId, VertexId)]) -> MulticutResult {
// Approximate multicut using hierarchy
self.compute_multicut(pairs)
}
}
```
### Integration with Coherence Gate (ADR-001)
The j-tree hierarchy integrates with the Anytime-Valid Coherence Gate:
```rust
/// Enhanced coherence gate using two-tier cut architecture
pub struct TieredCoherenceGate {
/// Two-tier cut coordinator
cut_coordinator: TwoTierCoordinator,
/// Conformal prediction component
conformal: ShiftAdaptiveConformal,
/// E-process evidence accumulator
evidence: EProcessAccumulator,
/// Gate thresholds
thresholds: GateThresholds,
}
impl TieredCoherenceGate {
/// Fast structural check using Tier 1
pub fn fast_structural_check(&self, action: &Action) -> QuickDecision {
// Use j-tree for O(n^ε) approximate check
let approx_cut = self.cut_coordinator.jtree.approximate_min_cut();
if approx_cut.value > self.thresholds.definitely_safe {
QuickDecision::Permit
} else if approx_cut.value < self.thresholds.definitely_unsafe {
QuickDecision::Deny
} else {
QuickDecision::NeedsExactCheck
}
}
/// Full evaluation with exact verification if needed
pub fn evaluate(&mut self, action: &Action, context: &Context) -> GateDecision {
// Quick check first
let quick = self.fast_structural_check(action);
match quick {
QuickDecision::Permit => {
// Fast path: structure is definitely safe
self.issue_permit_fast(action)
}
QuickDecision::Deny => {
// Fast path: structure is definitely unsafe
self.issue_denial_fast(action)
}
QuickDecision::NeedsExactCheck => {
// Invoke Tier 2 for exact verification
let exact_cut = self.cut_coordinator.min_cut(true);
self.evaluate_with_exact_cut(action, context, exact_cut)
}
}
}
}
```
### Performance Characteristics
| Operation | Tier 1 (j-Tree) | Tier 2 (Exact) | Combined |
|-----------|-----------------|----------------|----------|
| **Insert Edge** | O(n^ε) | O(n^{o(1)}) | O(n^ε) |
| **Delete Edge** | O(n^ε) | O(n^{o(1)}) | O(n^ε) |
| **Min-Cut Query** | O(log n) approx | O(1) exact | O(1) - O(log n) |
| **All-Pairs Min-Cut** | O(n log n) | N/A | O(n log n) |
| **Sparsest Cut** | O(n^ε) | N/A | O(n^ε) |
| **Multi-Way Cut** | O(k log k · n^ε) | N/A | O(k log k · n^ε) |
### Recourse Guarantees
The vertex-split-tolerant sparsifier provides:
| Metric | Guarantee |
|--------|-----------|
| **Edges adjusted per update** | O(log² n / ε²) |
| **Total recourse over m updates** | O(m · log² n / ε²) |
| **Forest repairs per vertex split** | O(log n) |
This is critical for maintaining hierarchy stability under dynamic changes.

## Appendix: Paper Comparison
### El-Hayek/Henzinger/Li (Dec 2025) vs Goranci et al. (Jan 2026)
| Aspect | arXiv:2512.13105 | arXiv:2601.09139 |
|--------|------------------|------------------|
| **Focus** | Exact min-cut | Approximate cut hierarchy |
| **Update Time** | O(n^{o(1)}) | O(n^ε) for any ε > 0 |
| **Approximation** | Exact | Poly-logarithmic |
| **Cut Regime** | Superpolylogarithmic | All sizes |
| **Query Types** | Min-cut only | All cut problems |
| **Deterministic** | Yes | Yes |
| **Key Technique** | Cluster hierarchy + LocalKCut | j-Tree + vertex-split sparsifier |
**Synergy**: The two approaches complement each other perfectly:
- Use Goranci et al. for fast global monitoring and diverse cut queries
- Use El-Hayek et al. for exact verification when critical cuts are detected
This two-tier strategy provides both breadth (approximate queries on all cut problems) and depth (exact min-cut when needed).

# Appendix: Applications Spectrum for Anytime-Valid Coherence Gate
**Related**: ADR-001, DDC-001, ROADMAP
This appendix maps the Anytime-Valid Coherence Gate to concrete market applications across three horizons.
---
## Practical Applications (0-18 months)
These convert pilots into procurement. Target: Enterprise buyers who need auditable safety now.
### 1. Network Security Control Plane
**Use Case**: Detect and suppress lateral movement, credential abuse, and tool misuse in real time.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- When coherence drops (new relationships, weird graph cuts, novel access paths), actions get deferred or denied automatically
- Witness partitions identify the exact boundary crossing that triggered intervention
- E-process accumulates evidence of anomalous behavior over time
**Demo Scenario**:
```
1. Ingest NetFlow + auth logs into RuVector graph
2. Fire simulated attack (credential stuffing → lateral movement)
3. Show Permit/Deny decisions with witness cut visualization
4. Highlight "here's exactly why this action was blocked"
```
**Metric to Own**: Mean time to safe containment (MTTC)
**Integration Points**:
- SIEM integration via `GatePacket` events
- Witness receipts feed into incident response workflows
- E-process thresholds map to SOC escalation tiers
---
### 2. Cloud Operations Autopilot
**Use Case**: Auto-remediation of incidents without runaway automation.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- Only allow remediation steps that stay inside stable partitions of dependency graphs
- Coherence drop triggers "Defer to human" instead of cascading rollback
- Conformal prediction sets quantify uncertainty about remediation outcomes
**Demo Scenario**:
```
1. Service dependency graph + deploy pipeline in RuVector
2. Inject failure (service A crashes)
3. Autopilot proposes rollback
4. Gate checks: "Does rollback stay within stable partition?"
5. If boundary crossing detected → DEFER with witness
```
**Metric to Own**: Reduction in incident blast radius
**Integration Points**:
- Kubernetes operator for deployment gating
- Terraform plan validation via graph analysis
- PagerDuty integration for DEFER escalations
---
### 3. Data Governance and Exfiltration Prevention
**Use Case**: Prevent agents from leaking sensitive data across boundaries.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- Boundary witnesses become enforceable "do not cross" lines
- Memory shards and tool scopes mapped as graph partitions
- Any action crossing partition → immediate DENY + audit
**Metric to Own**: Unauthorized cross-domain action suppression rate
**Architecture**:
```
┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐
│ PII Zone │ │ Public Zone │
│ (Partition A) │ │ (Partition B) │
│ │ │ │
│ • User records │ │ • Analytics │
│ • Credentials │ │ • Reports │
└────────┬────────┘ └────────┬────────┘

│ GATE │
│ │
│ Witness: │
│ "Action │
│ crosses │
│ PII→Public" │
│ │
│ Decision: │
│ DENY │
└─────────────┘
```
---
### 4. Agent Routing and Budget Control
**Use Case**: Stop agents from spiraling, chattering, or tool thrashing.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- Coherence signal detects when agent is "lost" (exploration without progress)
- E-value evidence decides whether escalation/continuation is justified
- Conformal sets bound expected cost of next action
**Metric to Own**: Cost per resolved task with fixed safety constraints
**Decision Logic**:
```
IF action_count > threshold AND coherence < target:
→ Check e-process: "Is progress being made?"
→ IF e_value < τ_deny: DENY (stop the spiral)
→ IF e_value < τ_permit: DEFER (escalate to human)
→ ELSE: PERMIT (continue but monitor)
```
---
## Advanced Practical (18 months - 3 years)
These start to look like "new infrastructure."
### 5. Autonomous SOC and NOC
**Use Case**: Always-on detection, triage, and response with bounded actions.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- System stays calm until boundary crossings spike
- Then concentrates attention on anomalous regions
- Human analysts handle DEFER decisions only
**Metric to Own**: Analyst-hours saved per month without increased risk
**Architecture**:
```

│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
---
### 6. Supply Chain Integrity and Firmware Trust
**Use Case**: Devices that self-audit software changes and refuse unsafe upgrades.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- Signed event logs feed into coherence computation
- Deterministic replay verifies state transitions
- Boundary gating on what updates may alter
**Metric to Own**: Mean time to recover from compromised update attempt
**Witness Receipt Structure**:
```json
{
"update_id": "firmware-v2.3.1",
"source_hash": "abc123...",
"coherence_before": 0.95,
"coherence_after_sim": 0.72,
"boundary_violations": [
"bootloader partition",
"secure enclave boundary"
],
"decision": "DENY",
"e_value": 0.003,
"receipt_hash": "def456..."
}
```
---
### 7. Multi-Tenant AI Safety Partitioning
**Use Case**: Same hardware, many customers, no cross-tenant drift or bleed.
**How the Gate Helps**:
- RuVector partitions model tenant boundaries
- Cut-witness enforcement prevents cross-tenant actions
- Per-tenant e-processes track coherence independently
**Metric to Own**: Cross-tenant anomaly leakage probability (measured, not promised)
**Guarantee Structure**:
```
For each tenant T_i:
P(action from T_i affects T_j, j≠i) ≤ ε
Where ε is bounded by:
- Min-cut between T_i and T_j partitions
- Conformal prediction set overlap
- E-process independence verification
```
---
## Exotic Applications (3-10 years)
These are the ones that make people say "wait, that's a different kind of computer."
### 8. Machines that "Refuse to Hallucinate with Actions"
**Use Case**: A system that can still be uncertain, but cannot act uncertainly.
**Principle**:
- It can generate hypotheses all day
- But action requires coherence AND evidence
- Creativity without incident
**How It Works**:
```
WHILE generating:
hypotheses ← LLM.generate() # Unconstrained creativity
FOR action in proposed_actions:
IF NOT coherence_gate.permits(action):
CONTINUE # Skip uncertain actions
# Only reaches here if:
# 1. Action stays in stable partition
# 2. Conformal set is small (confident prediction)
# 3. E-process shows sufficient evidence
EXECUTE(action)
```
**Outcome**: You get creativity without incident. The system can explore freely in thought-space but must be grounded before acting.
---
### 9. Continuous Self-Healing Software and Infrastructure
**Use Case**: Systems that grow calmer over time, not more fragile.
**Principle**:
- Coherence becomes the homeostasis signal
- Learning pauses when unstable, resumes when stable
- Optimization is built-in, not bolt-on
**Homeostasis Loop**:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ ┌─────────┐ │
│ │ Observe │◀──────────────────┐ │
│ └────┬────┘ │ │
│ │ │ │
│ ▼ │ │
│ ┌─────────┐ │ │
│ │ Compute │──▶ coherence │ │
│ │Coherence│ │ │
│ └────┬────┘ │ │
│ │ │ │
│ ▼ │ │
│ ┌─────────────────────┐ │ │
│ │ coherence > target? │ │ │

│ │ LEARN │ │ PAUSE │ │ │
│ └───┬───┘ └────────┘ │ │
│ │ │ │
│ └─────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
**Outcome**: "Built-in optimization" instead of built-in obsolescence. Systems that maintain themselves.
---
### 10. Nervous-System Computing for Fleets
**Use Case**: Millions of devices that coordinate without central control.
**Principle**:
- Local coherence gates at each node
- Only boundary deltas shared upstream
- Scale without noise
**Architecture**:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ GLOBAL AGGREGATE │
│ (boundary deltas only) │
└──────────────────┬──────────────────┘
┌──────────────┼──────────────┐
│ │ │
▼ ▼ ▼
┌───────────┐ ┌───────────┐ ┌───────────┐
│ Region A │ │ Region B │ │ Region C │
│ Gate │ │ Gate │ │ Gate │
└─────┬─────┘ └─────┬─────┘ └─────┬─────┘
│ │ │
┌─────┴─────┐ ┌─────┴─────┐ ┌─────┴─────┐
│ • • • • • │ │ • • • • • │ │ • • • • • │
│ Devices │ │ Devices │ │ Devices │
│ (local │ │ (local │ │ (local │
│ gates) │ │ gates) │ │ gates) │
└───────────┘ └───────────┘ └───────────┘
```
**Key Insight**: Most decisions stay local. Only boundary crossings escalate. This is how biological nervous systems achieve scale—not by centralizing everything, but by making most decisions locally and only propagating what matters.
**Outcome**: Scale without noise. Decisions stay local, escalation stays rare.
---
### 11. Synthetic Institutions
**Use Case**: Autonomous org-like systems that maintain rules, budgets, and integrity over decades.
**Principle**:
- Deterministic governance receipts become the operating fabric
- Every decision has a witness
- Institutional memory is cryptographically anchored
**What This Looks Like**:
```
SYNTHETIC INSTITUTION
├── Constitution (immutable rules)
│ └── Encoded as min-cut constraints
├── Governance (decision procedures)
│ └── Gate policies with e-process thresholds
├── Memory (institutional history)
│ └── Merkle tree of witness receipts
├── Budget (resource allocation)
│ └── Conformal bounds on expenditure
└── Evolution (rule changes)
└── Requires super-majority e-process evidence
```
**Outcome**: A new class of durable, auditable autonomy. Organizations that can outlive their creators while remaining accountable.
---
## Summary: The Investment Thesis
| Horizon | Applications | Market Signal |
|---------|--------------|---------------|
| **0-18 months** | Network security, cloud ops, data governance, agent routing | "Buyers will pay for this next quarter" |
| **18 months - 3 years** | Autonomous SOC/NOC, supply chain, multi-tenant AI | "New infrastructure" |
| **3-10 years** | Action-grounded AI, self-healing systems, fleet nervous systems, synthetic institutions | "A different kind of computer" |
The coherence gate is the primitive that enables all of these. It converts the category thesis (bounded autonomy with receipts) into a product primitive that:
1. **Buyers understand**: "Permit / Defer / Deny with audit trail"
2. **Auditors accept**: "Every decision has a cryptographic witness"
3. **Engineers can build on**: "Clear API with formal guarantees"
---
## Next Steps
1. **Phase 1 Demo**: Network security control plane (shortest path to revenue)
2. **Phase 2 Platform**: Agent routing SDK (developer adoption)
3. **Phase 3 Infrastructure**: Multi-tenant AI safety (enterprise lock-in)
4. **Phase 4 Research**: Exotic applications (thought leadership)

**Version**: 1.0
**Date**: 2026-01-17
**Related ADR**: ADR-001-anytime-valid-coherence-gate
## Purpose
This document specifies the design decision criteria for implementing the Anytime-Valid Coherence Gate (AVCG). It provides concrete guidance for architectural choices, implementation trade-offs, and acceptance criteria.
---
## 1. Graph Model Design Decisions

**Decision Required**: How to construct the action graph G_t from agent state?
| Option | Description | Pros | Cons | Recommendation |
|--------|-------------|------|------|----------------|
| **A. State-Action Pairs** | Nodes = (state, action), Edges = transitions | Fine-grained control; precise cuts | Large graphs; O(|S|·|A|) nodes | Use for high-stakes domains |
| **B. Abstract State Clusters** | Nodes = state clusters, Edges = aggregate transitions | Smaller graphs; faster updates | May miss nuanced boundaries | **Recommended for v0** |
| **C. Learned Embeddings** | Nodes = learned state embeddings | Adaptive; captures latent structure | Requires training data; less interpretable | Future enhancement |
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] Graph construction completes in < 100μs for typical agent states
- [ ] Graph accurately represents reachability to unsafe states
- [ ] Witness partitions are human-interpretable
### DDC-1.2: Edge Weight Semantics
**Decision Required**: What do edge weights represent?
| Option | Interpretation | Use Case |
|--------|---------------|----------|
| **A. Risk Scores** | Higher weight = higher risk of unsafe outcome | Min-cut = minimum total risk to unsafe |
| **B. Inverse Probability** | Higher weight = less likely transition | Min-cut = least likely path to unsafe |
| **C. Unit Weights** | All edges weight 1.0 | Min-cut = fewest actions to unsafe |
| **D. Conformal Set Size** | Weight = |C_t| for that action | Natural integration with predictive uncertainty |
**Recommendation**: Option D creates natural integration between min-cut and conformal prediction.
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] Weight semantics are documented and consistent
- [ ] Min-cut value has interpretable meaning for operators

| **B. Retrospective Adjustment** | Fast | Medium |
| **C. COP (Conformal Optimistic)** | Fastest | Low (but valid) |
| **D. CORE (RL-based)** | Adaptive | Task-dependent |
**Recommendation**: Hybrid approach:
- Use COP for normal operation (fast, less conservative)
- Fall back to ACI under detected severe shift
- Use retrospective adjustment for post-hoc correction
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] Coverage maintained during gradual shift (δ < 0.1/step)
- [ ] Recovery to target coverage within 100 steps after abrupt shift
- [ ] No catastrophic coverage failures (coverage never < 0.5)
---
## 3. E-Process Construction
### DDC-3.1: E-Value Computation Method
**Decision Required**: How to compute per-action e-values?
| Method | Requirements | Robustness |
|--------|--------------|------------|
| **A. Likelihood Ratio** | Density models for H₀ and H₁ | Low (model-dependent) |
| **B. Universal Inference** | Split data; no density needed | Medium |
| **C. Mixture E-Values** | Multiple alternatives | High (hedged) |
| **D. Betting E-Values** | Online learning framework | High (adaptive) |
**Recommendation**: Option C (Mixture E-Values) for robustness:
```
e_t = (1/K) Σ_k e_t^{(k)}
```
Where each e_t^{(k)} tests a different alternative hypothesis.
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] E[e_t | H₀] ≤ 1 verified empirically

- [ ] Power grows with evidence accumulation
### DDC-3.3: Null Hypothesis Specification
**Decision Required**: What constitutes the "coherence" null hypothesis?
| Formulation | Meaning |
|-------------|---------|
| **A. Action Safety** | H₀: P(action leads to unsafe state) ≤ p₀ |
| **B. State Stability** | H₀: P(state deviates from normal) ≤ p₀ |
| **C. Policy Consistency** | H₀: Current policy ≈ reference policy |
| **D. Composite** | H₀: (A) ∧ (B) ∧ (C) |
**Recommendation**: Start with Option A, extend to Option D for production.
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] H₀ is well-specified and testable
- [ ] False alarm rate matches target α

---
## 4. Integration Architecture
### DDC-4.1: Signal Combination Strategy

|----------|-------|------------|
| **A. Sequential Short-Circuit** | Cut → Conformal → E-process | Fast rejection; ordered |
| **B. Parallel with Voting** | All evaluate; majority rules | Robust; slower |
| **C. Weighted Integration** | score = w₁·cut + w₂·conf + w₃·e | Flexible; needs tuning |
| **D. Hierarchical** | E-process gates conformal gates cut | Layered authority |
**Recommendation**: Option A (Sequential Short-Circuit):
1. Min-cut DENY is immediate (structural safety)
2. Conformal uncertainty gates e-process (no point accumulating evidence if outcome unpredictable)
3. E-process makes final permit/defer decision
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] Gate latency < 50ms for typical decisions
- [ ] No single-point-of-failure (graceful degradation)
- [ ] Decision audit trail is complete
### DDC-4.2: Graceful Degradation
**Decision Required**: How should the gate behave when components fail?
| Component Failure | Fallback Behavior |
|-------------------|-------------------|
| Min-cut unavailable | Defer all actions; alert operator |
| Conformal predictor fails | Use widened prediction sets (conservative) |
| E-process computation fails | Use last valid e-value; decay confidence |
| All components fail | Full DENY; require human approval |
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] Failure detection within 100ms
- [ ] Fallback never less safe than full DENY
- [ ] Recovery is automatic when component restores
### DDC-4.3: Latency Budget Allocation
**Decision Required**: How to allocate total latency budget across components?
Given total budget T_total (e.g., 50ms):
| Component | Allocation | Rationale |
|-----------|------------|-----------|
| Min-cut update | 0.2 · T | Amortized; subpolynomial |
| Conformal prediction | 0.4 · T | Main computation |
| E-process update | 0.2 · T | Arithmetic; fast |
| Decision logic | 0.1 · T | Simple rules |
| Receipt generation | 0.1 · T | Hashing; logging |
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] p99 latency < T_total
- [ ] No component exceeds 2× its budget
- [ ] Latency monitoring in place

## 8. Open Questions for Review
1. **Graph Model Scope**: Should the action graph include only immediate actions or multi-step lookahead?
2. **E-Process Null**: Is "action safety" the right null hypothesis, or should we test "policy consistency"?
3. **Threshold Learning**: Should thresholds be fixed or learned via meta-optimization?
4. **Human-in-Loop**: How should DEFER decisions be presented to human operators?
5. **Adversarial Robustness**: How does AVCG perform against adaptive adversaries who observe gate decisions?

## Phase 1: E-Process Foundation
**Goal**: Implement core e-value and e-process infrastructure.
### Task 1.1: E-Value Module

pub fn verify_validity(&self, samples: &[f64]) -> bool;
}
```
### Task 1.2: E-Process Module
Create `src/eprocess/process.rs`:
```rust
/// E-process for continuous monitoring
pub struct EProcess {
/// Current accumulated value
current: f64,
/// History for audit
history: Vec<EValue>,
/// Update rule
update_rule: UpdateRule,
}
pub enum UpdateRule {
/// E_t = Π e_i (aggressive)
Product,
/// E_t = (1/t) Σ e_i (conservative)
Average,
/// E_t = λe_t + (1-λ)E_{t-1}
ExponentialMoving { lambda: f64 },
/// E_t = Σ w_j E_t^{(j)}

pub fn to_evidence_receipt(&self) -> EvidenceReceipt;
}
```
### Task 1.3: Stopping Rules
Create `src/eprocess/stopping.rs`:
```rust
/// Anytime-valid stopping rule
pub struct StoppingRule {
/// Threshold for rejection
reject_threshold: f64, // typically 1/α
/// Threshold for acceptance (optional)
accept_threshold: Option<f64>,
}
impl StoppingRule {
/// Check if we can stop now
pub fn can_stop(&self, e_process: &EProcess) -> StoppingDecision;
/// Get confidence at current stopping time
pub fn confidence_at_stop(&self, e_process: &EProcess) -> f64;
}
pub enum StoppingDecision {
/// Continue accumulating evidence
Continue,
/// Reject null (evidence of incoherence)
Reject { confidence: f64 },
/// Accept null (evidence of coherence)
Accept { confidence: f64 },
}
```
### Deliverables Phase 1

- [ ] E[e] ≤ 1 verified for all implemented e-value types
- [ ] E-process maintains supermartingale property
- [ ] Stopping rule provides valid Type I error control
- [ ] Computation time < 1ms for single e-value
---
## Phase 2: Conformal Prediction
**Goal**: Implement online conformal prediction with shift adaptation.
### Task 2.1: Prediction Set Core
Create `src/conformal/prediction_set.rs`:
```rust
/// Conformal prediction set
pub struct PredictionSet<T> {
/// Elements in the set
elements: Vec<T>,
/// Coverage target
coverage: f64,
/// Non-conformity scores
scores: Vec<f64>,
}
impl<T> PredictionSet<T> {
/// Check if outcome is in set
pub fn contains(&self, outcome: &T) -> bool;
/// Get set size (measure of uncertainty)
pub fn size(&self) -> usize;
/// Get normalized uncertainty measure
pub fn uncertainty(&self) -> f64;
}
```
### Task 2.2: Non-Conformity Scores
Create `src/conformal/scores.rs`:
```rust
/// Non-conformity score function
pub trait NonConformityScore {
type Input;
type Output;
fn score(&self, input: &Self::Input, output: &Self::Output) -> f64;
}
/// Absolute residual score
pub struct AbsoluteResidual<P: Predictor> {
predictor: P,

/// Current quantile
quantile: f64,

/// Coverage as reward signal
coverage_target: f64,
}
/// Simple TD-learning agent for quantile adjustment
struct QuantileAgent {
q_value: f64,
learning_rate: f64,
discount: f64,
}
impl<S: NonConformityScore> COREConformal<S> {
/// Predict with RL-adjusted quantile
pub fn predict(&self, input: &S::Input) -> PredictionSet<S::Output>;

# Bounded-Range Dynamic Minimum Cut - Testing Summary
## Overview
Created comprehensive integration tests and benchmarks for the bounded-range dynamic minimum cut system, implementing the wrapper algorithm from the December 2024 paper.
## Files Created
### Integration Tests
**File**: `/home/user/ruvector/crates/ruvector-mincut/tests/bounded_integration.rs`
16 comprehensive integration tests covering:
1. **Graph Topologies**
- Path graphs (P_n) - min cut = 1
- Cycle graphs (C_n) - min cut = 2
- Complete graphs (K_n) - min cut = n-1
- Grid graphs - min cut = 2 (corner vertices)
- Star graphs - min cut = 1
- Bridge graphs (dumbbell) - min cut = 1
2. **Dynamic Operations**
- Edge insertions
- Edge deletions
- Incremental updates (path → cycle → path)
- Buffered updates before query
3. **Correctness Properties**
- Disconnected graphs (min cut = 0)
- Empty graphs
- Single edges
- Deterministic results
- Multiple query consistency
4. **Stress Testing**
- 1000 random edge insertions
- Large graphs (100 vertices)
- Lazy instance instantiation
### Benchmarks
**File**: `/home/user/ruvector/crates/ruvector-mincut/benches/bounded_bench.rs`
Comprehensive performance benchmarks:
1. **Basic Operations**
- `benchmark_insert_edge` - Insertion throughput at various graph sizes (100-5000 vertices)
- `benchmark_delete_edge` - Deletion throughput
- `benchmark_query` - Query latency
- `benchmark_query_after_updates` - Query performance with buffered updates (10-500 updates)
2. **Graph Topologies**
- Path graphs
- Cycle graphs
- Grid graphs (22×22 = 484 vertices)
- Complete graphs (30 vertices)
3. **Workload Patterns**
- `benchmark_mixed_workload` - Realistic mix: 70% queries, 20% inserts, 10% deletes
- `benchmark_lazy_instantiation` - First query vs subsequent queries
4. **Performance Scaling**
- Measures throughput using Criterion's `Throughput::Elements`
- Tests multiple graph sizes to verify subpolynomial scaling
- Isolates setup from measurement using `iter_batched`
## Key Bugs Fixed
### 1. Iterator Issue in LocalKCut
**File**: `src/localkcut/paper_impl.rs`
Fixed missing `.into_iter()` calls when mapping over `graph.neighbors()` results.
```rust
// Before (broken)
let neighbors = graph.neighbors(v).map(|(neighbor, _)| neighbor).collect();
// After (fixed)
let neighbors = graph.neighbors(v).into_iter().map(|(neighbor, _)| neighbor).collect();
```
### 2. Stub Instance Overflow
**File**: `src/instance/stub.rs`
Added check to prevent overflow when computing `1u64 << n` for large graphs:
```rust
// Stub instance only works for small graphs (n < 20)
if n >= 20 {
return None; // Triggers AboveRange
}
```
### 3. Wrapper Instance Initialization
**File**: `src/instance/stub.rs`, `src/wrapper/mod.rs`
Distinguished between two initialization modes:
- `new()` - Copies initial graph state (for direct testing)
- `init()` - Starts empty (for wrapper use, which applies edges via `apply_inserts`)
### 4. Wrapper AboveRange Handling
**File**: `src/wrapper/mod.rs`
Fixed logic to continue searching instances instead of stopping on first `AboveRange`:
```rust
// Before (broken)
InstanceResult::AboveRange => {
break; // Would stop immediately!
}
// After (fixed)
InstanceResult::AboveRange => {
continue; // Try next instance with larger range
}
```
### 5. New Instance State Initialization (Critical Fix!)
**File**: `src/wrapper/mod.rs`
Fixed bug where new instances created on subsequent queries didn't receive historical edges:
```rust
if is_new_instance {
// New instance: apply ALL edges from the current graph state
let all_edges: Vec<_> = self.graph.edges()
.iter()
.map(|e| (e.id, e.source, e.target))
.collect();
instance.apply_inserts(&all_edges);
} else {
// Existing instance: apply only new updates since last query
let inserts: Vec<_> = self.pending_inserts
.iter()
.filter(|u| u.time > last_time)
.map(|u| (u.edge_id, u.u, u.v))
.collect();
instance.apply_inserts(&inserts);
}
```
## Test Results
### Integration Tests
```
test result: ok. 16 passed; 0 failed
```
All tests pass, covering:
- Graph topologies (path, cycle, complete, grid, star, bridge)
- Dynamic updates (insertions, deletions, incremental)
- Edge cases (empty, disconnected, single edge)
- Stress testing (1000 random edges, 100 vertices)
- Correctness (determinism, consistency)
### Benchmarks
```
Finished `bench` profile [optimized + debuginfo]
Executable: bounded_bench
```
Benchmarks compile successfully and ready to run with:
```bash
cargo bench --bench bounded_bench --package ruvector-mincut
```
## Performance Characteristics
Based on test observations:
1. **Instance Creation**: Lazy instantiation - instances only created when needed
2. **Query Time**: O(log n) instances checked in worst case
3. **Update Time**: Incremental - only new updates applied to existing instances
4. **Memory**: Grows with graph size + O(log n) instances
Typical instance counts observed:
- Path graph (10 vertices, min cut 1): 1 instance
- Cycle graph (5 vertices, min cut 2): 4 instances
- Grid graph (9 vertices, min cut 2): Similar pattern
## Running Tests
```bash
# Run all integration tests
cargo test --test bounded_integration --package ruvector-mincut
# Run with output
cargo test --test bounded_integration --package ruvector-mincut -- --nocapture
# Run specific test
cargo test --test bounded_integration test_cycle_graph_integration --package ruvector-mincut
# Run benchmarks
cargo bench --bench bounded_bench --package ruvector-mincut
```
## Future Improvements
1. **Replace StubInstance**: Current brute-force O(2^n) implementation should be replaced with real LocalKCut algorithm for n > 20
2. **Deletions**: Test coverage for deletion-heavy workloads
3. **Weighted Graphs**: More extensive testing with non-unit edge weights
4. **Concurrency**: Add tests for concurrent queries (wrapper uses Arc internally)
5. **Memory Bounds**: Add tests verifying memory usage stays bounded

# Getting Started with RuVector MinCut
Welcome to RuVector MinCut! This guide will help you understand minimum cuts and start using the library in your Rust projects.
---
## 1. What is Minimum Cut?
### The Simple Explanation
Imagine you have a network of roads connecting different cities. The **minimum cut** answers this question:
> **"What's the smallest number of roads I need to close to completely separate the network into two parts?"**
Think of it like finding the **weakest links in a chain** — the places where your network is most vulnerable to breaking apart.
### Real-World Analogies
| Scenario | What You Have | What Min-Cut Finds |
|----------|---------------|-------------------|
| **Road Network** | Cities connected by roads | Fewest roads to block to isolate a city |
| **Social Network** | People connected by friendships | Weakest link between two communities |
| **Computer Network** | Servers connected by cables | Most vulnerable connections if attacked |
| **Water Pipes** | Houses connected by pipes | Minimum pipes to shut off to stop water flow |
| **Supply Chain** | Factories connected by routes | Critical dependencies that could break the chain |
### Visual Example
Here's what a minimum cut looks like in a simple graph:
```mermaid
graph LR
subgraph "Original Graph"
A((A)) ---|1| B((B))
B ---|1| C((C))
C ---|1| D((D))
A ---|1| D((D))
B ---|1| D((D))
end
subgraph "After Minimum Cut (value = 2)"
A1((A)) -.x.- B1((B))
B1((B)) ---|1| C1((C))
C1((C)) ---|1| D1((D))
A1((A)) -.x.- D1((D))
B1 ---|1| D1
end
style A1 fill:#ffcccc
style A fill:#ffcccc
style B fill:#ccccff
style C fill:#ccccff
style D fill:#ccccff
style B1 fill:#ccccff
style C1 fill:#ccccff
style D1 fill:#ccccff
```
**Legend:**
- **Solid lines** (—): Edges that remain
- **Crossed lines** (-.x.-): Edges in the minimum cut (removed)
- **Red nodes**: One side of the partition (set S)
- **Blue nodes**: Other side of the partition (set T)
The minimum cut value is **2** because we need to remove 2 edges to disconnect node A from the rest.
### Key Terminology for Beginners
| Term | Simple Explanation | Example |
|------|-------------------|---------|
| **Vertex** (or Node) | A point in the network | A city, a person, a server |
| **Edge** | A connection between two vertices | A road, a friendship, a cable |
| **Weight** | The "strength" or "capacity" of an edge | Road width, friendship closeness |
| **Cut** | A set of edges that, when removed, splits the graph | Roads to close to isolate a city |
| **Partition** | The two groups created after a cut | Cities on each side of the divide |
| **Cut Value** | Sum of weights of edges in the cut | Total capacity of removed edges |
### Why Is This Useful?
- **Find Vulnerabilities**: Identify critical infrastructure that could fail
- **Optimize Networks**: Understand where to strengthen connections
- **Detect Communities**: Find natural groupings in social networks
- **Image Segmentation**: Separate objects from backgrounds in photos
- **Load Balancing**: Divide work efficiently across systems

## 3. Your First Min-Cut
Let's create a simple program that finds the minimum cut in a triangle graph.
### Complete Working Example
Create a new file `examples/my_first_mincut.rs`:
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::{MinCutBuilder, DynamicMinCut};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
println!("🔷 Finding Minimum Cut in a Triangle\n");
// Step 1: Create a triangle graph
// 1 ------- 2
// \ /
// \ /
// \ /
// 3
//
// Each edge has weight 1.0
let mut mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.exact() // Use exact algorithm for guaranteed correct results
.with_edges(vec![
(1, 2, 1.0), // Edge from vertex 1 to vertex 2, weight 1.0
(2, 3, 1.0), // Edge from vertex 2 to vertex 3, weight 1.0
(3, 1, 1.0), // Edge from vertex 3 to vertex 1, weight 1.0
])
.build()?;
// Step 2: Query the minimum cut value
let cut_value = mincut.min_cut_value();
println!("Minimum cut value: {}", cut_value);
println!("→ We need to remove {} edge(s) to disconnect the graph\n", cut_value);
// Step 3: Get the partition (which vertices are on each side?)
let (side_s, side_t) = mincut.partition();
println!("Partition:");
println!(" Side S (red): {:?}", side_s);
println!(" Side T (blue): {:?}", side_t);
println!("→ These two groups are separated by the cut\n");
// Step 4: Get the actual edges in the cut
let cut_edges = mincut.cut_edges();
println!("Edges in the minimum cut:");
for (u, v, weight) in &cut_edges {
println!(" {} ←→ {} (weight: {})", u, v, weight);
}
println!("→ These edges must be removed to separate the graph\n");
// Step 5: Make the graph dynamic - add a new edge
println!("📍 Adding edge 3 → 4 (weight 2.0)...");
let new_cut = mincut.insert_edge(3, 4, 2.0)?;
println!("New minimum cut value: {}", new_cut);
println!("→ Adding a leaf node increased connectivity\n");
// Step 6: Delete an edge
println!("📍 Deleting edge 2 → 3...");
let final_cut = mincut.delete_edge(2, 3)?;
println!("Final minimum cut value: {}", final_cut);
println!("→ The graph is now a chain: 1-2, 3-4, 1-3\n");
println!("✅ Success! You've computed your first dynamic minimum cut.");
Ok(())
}
```
### Running the Example
```bash
cargo run --example my_first_mincut
```
**Expected Output:**
```
🔷 Finding Minimum Cut in a Triangle
Minimum cut value: 2.0
→ We need to remove 2 edge(s) to disconnect the graph
Partition:
Side S (red): [1]
Side T (blue): [2, 3]
→ These two groups are separated by the cut
Edges in the minimum cut:
1 ←→ 2 (weight: 1.0)
1 ←→ 3 (weight: 1.0)
→ These edges must be removed to separate the graph
📍 Adding edge 3 → 4 (weight 2.0)...
New minimum cut value: 2.0
→ Adding a leaf node increased connectivity
📍 Deleting edge 2 → 3...
Final minimum cut value: 1.0
→ The graph is now a chain: 1-2, 3-4, 1-3
✅ Success! You've computed your first dynamic minimum cut.
```
### Breaking Down the Code
Let's understand each part:
#### 1. Building the Graph
```rust
let mut mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.exact()
.with_edges(vec![
(1, 2, 1.0),
(2, 3, 1.0),
(3, 1, 1.0),
])
.build()?;
```
- **`MinCutBuilder::new()`**: Creates a new builder
- **`.exact()`**: Use exact algorithm (guaranteed correct)
- **`.with_edges(vec![...])`**: Add edges as `(source, target, weight)` tuples
- **`.build()?`**: Construct the data structure
#### 2. Querying the Cut
```rust
let cut_value = mincut.min_cut_value();
```
This is **O(1)** — instant! The value is already computed.
#### 3. Getting the Partition
```rust
let (side_s, side_t) = mincut.partition();
```
Returns two vectors of vertex IDs showing which vertices are on each side of the cut.
#### 4. Dynamic Updates
```rust
mincut.insert_edge(3, 4, 2.0)?; // Add edge
mincut.delete_edge(2, 3)?; // Remove edge
```
These operations update the minimum cut in **O(n^{o(1)})** amortized time — much faster than recomputing from scratch!
---
## 4. Understanding the Output
### What Do the Numbers Mean?
#### Minimum Cut Value
```rust
let cut_value = mincut.min_cut_value(); // Example: 2.0
```
**Interpretation:**
- This is the **sum of weights** of edges you need to remove
- For unweighted graphs (all edges weight 1.0), it's the **count of edges**
- **Lower values** = weaker connectivity, easier to disconnect
- **Higher values** = stronger connectivity, harder to disconnect
#### Partition
```rust
let (side_s, side_t) = mincut.partition();
// Example: ([1], [2, 3])
```
**Interpretation:**
- `side_s`: Vertex IDs on one side of the cut (arbitrarily chosen)
- `side_t`: Vertex IDs on the other side
- All edges connecting S to T are in the minimum cut
- Vertices within S or T remain connected
#### Cut Edges
```rust
let cut_edges = mincut.cut_edges();
// Example: [(1, 2, 1.0), (1, 3, 1.0)]
```
**Interpretation:**
- These are the **specific edges** that form the minimum cut
- Format: `(source_vertex, target_vertex, weight)`
- Removing these edges disconnects the graph
- The sum of weights equals the cut value
### Exact vs Approximate Results
```rust
let result = mincut.min_cut();
if result.is_exact {
println!("Guaranteed minimum: {}", result.value);
} else {
println!("Approximate: {}{}%)",
result.value,
(result.approximation_ratio - 1.0) * 100.0
);
}
```
#### Exact Mode
- **`is_exact = true`**
- Guaranteed to find the true minimum cut
- Slower for very large graphs
- Use when correctness is critical
#### Approximate Mode
- **`is_exact = false`**
- Returns a cut within `(1+ε)` of the minimum
- Much faster for large graphs
- Use when speed matters more than perfect accuracy
**Example:** With `ε = 0.1`:
- If true minimum = 10, approximate returns between 10 and 11
- Approximation ratio = 1.1 (10% tolerance)
### Performance Characteristics
```rust
// Query: O(1) - instant!
let value = mincut.min_cut_value();
// Insert edge: O(n^{o(1)}) - subpolynomial!
mincut.insert_edge(u, v, weight)?;
// Delete edge: O(n^{o(1)}) - subpolynomial!
mincut.delete_edge(u, v)?;
```
**What is O(n^{o(1)})?**
- Slower than O(1) but faster than O(n), O(log n), etc.
- Example: O(n^{0.01}) or O(n^{1/log log n})
- Much better than traditional O(m·n) algorithms
- Enables real-time updates even for large graphs

### Code Examples
**Exact Mode** (guaranteed correct):
```rust
let mut mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.exact()
.with_edges(edges)
.build()?;
assert!(mincut.min_cut().is_exact);
```
**Approximate Mode** (10% tolerance):
```rust
let mut mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.approximate(0.1) // ε = 0.1
.with_edges(edges)
.build()?;
let result = mincut.min_cut();
assert!(!result.is_exact);
assert_eq!(result.approximation_ratio, 1.1);
```

```
### Result Inspection
```rust
let result = mincut.min_cut();
result.value // Cut value
result.is_exact // true if exact mode
result.approximation_ratio // 1.0 if exact, >1.0 if approximate
result.edges // Edges in the cut
result.partition // (S, T) vertex sets
```

# Core Concepts
This guide explains the fundamental concepts behind minimum cut algorithms in accessible language. Whether you're new to graph theory or experienced with algorithms, this guide will help you understand what makes RuVector's minimum cut implementation special.
---
## 1. Graph Basics
### What is a Graph?
Think of a graph like a social network or a map:
- **Vertices (Nodes)**: These are the "things" in your system
- Cities on a map
- People in a social network
- Computers in a network
- Pixels in an image
- **Edges (Links)**: These are the connections between things
- Roads between cities
- Friendships between people
- Network cables between computers
- Similarity between adjacent pixels
```mermaid
graph LR
A[Alice] ---|Friend| B[Bob]
B ---|Friend| C[Carol]
A ---|Friend| C
C ---|Friend| D[Dave]
B ---|Friend| D
style A fill:#e1f5ff
style B fill:#e1f5ff
style C fill:#e1f5ff
style D fill:#e1f5ff
```
### Weighted vs Unweighted Graphs
**Unweighted Graph**: All connections are equal
- Example: "Is there a friendship?" (yes/no)
**Weighted Graph**: Connections have different strengths or capacities
- Example: "How strong is the friendship?" (1-10 scale)
- Example: "What's the bandwidth of this network cable?" (100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, etc.)
```mermaid
graph LR
subgraph "Unweighted Graph"
A1[City A] --- B1[City B]
B1 --- C1[City C]
A1 --- C1
end
subgraph "Weighted Graph"
A2[City A] ---|50 km| B2[City B]
B2 ---|30 km| C2[City C]
A2 ---|80 km| C2
end
style A1 fill:#ffe1e1
style B1 fill:#ffe1e1
style C1 fill:#ffe1e1
style A2 fill:#e1ffe1
style B2 fill:#e1ffe1
style C2 fill:#e1ffe1
```
### Directed vs Undirected Graphs
**Undirected**: Connections work both ways
- Example: Roads (usually bidirectional)
- Example: Mutual friendships
**Undirected**: Connections have a direction
- Example: One-way streets
- Example: Twitter follows (Alice follows Bob doesn't mean Bob follows Alice)
```mermaid
graph LR
subgraph "Undirected (Bidirectional)"
A1[A] --- B1[B]
B1 --- C1[C]
end
subgraph "Directed (One-way)"
A2[A] --> B2[B]
B2 --> C2[C]
C2 --> A2
end
```
**RuVector focuses on undirected, weighted graphs** for minimum cut problems.
---
## 2. What is Minimum Cut?
### Definition
A **cut** in a graph divides vertices into two groups. The **minimum cut** is the division that requires removing the fewest (or lowest-weight) edges.
Think of it like this:
- Imagine a network of pipes carrying water
- A cut is choosing which pipes to block to split the network in two
- The minimum cut finds the weakest point - the smallest set of pipes that, if blocked, would separate the network
```mermaid
graph TB
subgraph "Original Graph"
A[A] ---|2| B[B]
A ---|3| C[C]
B ---|1| D[D]
C ---|1| D
B ---|4| C
end
subgraph "Minimum Cut (weight = 2)"
A1[A] ---|2| B1[B]
A1 ---|3| C1[C]
B1 -.X.-|1| D1[D]
C1 -.X.-|1| D1
B1 ---|4| C1
style A1 fill:#ffcccc
style B1 fill:#ffcccc
style C1 fill:#ffcccc
style D1 fill:#ccffcc
end
```
In the example above:
- Cutting edges B-D and C-D (total weight = 1 + 1 = 2) separates the graph
- This is the minimum cut because no smaller cut exists
- The red group {A, B, C} is separated from the green group {D}
### Why Minimum Cut Matters
Minimum cut algorithms solve real-world problems:
#### 1. **Network Reliability**
Find the weakest point in your infrastructure:
- Which network links, if they fail, would split your system?
- What's the minimum bandwidth bottleneck?
- Where should you add redundancy?
#### 2. **Image Segmentation**
Separate objects from backgrounds:
- Each pixel is a vertex
- Similar adjacent pixels have high-weight edges
- Minimum cut finds natural object boundaries
```mermaid
graph LR
subgraph "Image Pixels"
P1[Sky] ---|9| P2[Sky]
P2 ---|9| P3[Sky]
P3 ---|2| P4[Tree]
P4 ---|8| P5[Tree]
P5 ---|8| P6[Tree]
end
style P1 fill:#87ceeb
style P2 fill:#87ceeb
style P3 fill:#87ceeb
style P4 fill:#228b22
style P5 fill:#228b22
style P6 fill:#228b22
```
#### 3. **Community Detection**
Find natural groupings in social networks:
- Strong connections within communities
- Weak connections between communities
- Minimum cut reveals community boundaries
#### 4. **VLSI Design**
Partition circuits to minimize connections between chips:
- Reduces manufacturing complexity
- Minimizes communication overhead
- Optimizes physical layout
### Global Minimum Cut vs S-T Minimum Cut
There are two types of minimum cut problems:
#### **S-T Minimum Cut (Terminal Cut)**
- You specify two vertices: source (s) and sink (t)
- Find the minimum cut that separates s from t
- Common in flow networks and image segmentation
```mermaid
graph LR
S[Source S] ---|5| A[A]
S ---|3| B[B]
A ---|2| T[Sink T]
B ---|4| T
A ---|1| B
style S fill:#ffcccc
style A fill:#ffcccc
style B fill:#ccffcc
style T fill:#ccffcc
```
#### **Global Minimum Cut (All-Pairs)**
- No specific source/sink specified
- Find the absolute minimum cut across the entire graph
- Harder problem, but more general
**RuVector implements global minimum cut algorithms** - the most general and challenging variant.
---
## 3. Dynamic vs Static Algorithms
### The Static Approach
Traditional algorithms start from scratch every time:
```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
participant User
participant Algorithm
participant Graph
User->>Graph: Initial graph with 1000 edges
User->>Algorithm: Compute minimum cut
Algorithm->>Algorithm: Process all 1000 edges
Algorithm->>User: Result (takes 10 seconds)
User->>Graph: Add 1 edge
User->>Algorithm: Compute minimum cut again
Algorithm->>Algorithm: Reprocess all 1001 edges from scratch
Algorithm->>User: Result (takes 10 seconds again!)
Note over User,Algorithm: Inefficient: Full recomputation every time
```
**Problem**: If you add/remove just one edge, static algorithms recompute everything!
### The Dynamic Approach (Revolutionary!)
Dynamic algorithms maintain the solution incrementally:
```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
participant User
participant DynAlg as Dynamic Algorithm
participant Graph
User->>Graph: Initial graph with 1000 edges
User->>DynAlg: Compute minimum cut
DynAlg->>DynAlg: Process all 1000 edges, build data structures
DynAlg->>User: Result (takes 10 seconds)
User->>Graph: Add 1 edge
User->>DynAlg: Update minimum cut
DynAlg->>DynAlg: Update only affected parts
DynAlg->>User: Result (takes 0.1 seconds!)
Note over User,DynAlg: Efficient: Incremental updates only
```
**Advantage**: Updates are typically much faster than full recomputation!
### Why Dynamic is Revolutionary
Consider a practical scenario:
| Operation | Static Algorithm | Dynamic Algorithm |
|-----------|------------------|-------------------|
| Initial computation (10,000 edges) | 100 seconds | 100 seconds |
| Add 1 edge | 100 seconds | 0.5 seconds |
| Add 100 edges (one at a time) | 10,000 seconds (2.7 hours!) | 50 seconds |
| **Speed improvement** | — | **200× faster** |
```mermaid
graph TD
A[Change in Graph] --> B{Use Dynamic Algorithm?}
B -->|Yes| C[Update incrementally]
B -->|No| D[Recompute from scratch]
C --> E[Fast Update 0.5s]
D --> F[Slow Recompute 100s]
style C fill:#90EE90
style D fill:#FFB6C6
style E fill:#90EE90
style F fill:#FFB6C6
```
### Amortized vs Worst-Case Complexity
Dynamic algorithms have two complexity measures:
#### **Amortized Complexity**
- Average time per operation over many operations
- Usually much better than worst-case
- Example: O(log² n) per edge insertion
#### **Worst-Case Complexity**
- Maximum time for a single operation
- Guarantees for real-time systems
- Example: O(log⁴ n) per edge insertion
**RuVector provides both**:
- **Standard algorithm**: Best amortized complexity O(n^{o(1)})
- **PolylogConnectivity**: Deterministic worst-case O(log⁴ n)
---
## 4. Algorithm Choices
RuVector provides three cutting-edge algorithms from recent research papers (2024-2025). Here's when to use each:
### 4.1 Exact Algorithm (Default)
**Based on**: "A Õ(n^{o(1)})-Approximation Algorithm for Minimum Cut" (Chen et al., 2024)
**Complexity**: O(n^{o(1)}) amortized per operation
**When to use**:
- ✅ You need the exact minimum cut value
- ✅ Your graph changes frequently (dynamic updates)
- ✅ You want the best average-case performance
- ✅ General-purpose applications
**Trade-offs**:
- Slower worst-case than approximate algorithm
- Best for most applications
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::{MinCutWrapper, MinCutAlgorithm};
let mut wrapper = MinCutWrapper::new(
num_vertices,
MinCutAlgorithm::Exact
);
```
### 4.2 Approximate Algorithm ((1+ε)-approximation)
**Based on**: "Dynamic (1+ε)-Approximate Minimum Cut in Subpolynomial Time per Operation" (Cen et al., 2025)
**Complexity**: Õ(1/ε²) amortized per operation (subpolynomial in n!)
**When to use**:
- ✅ You can tolerate small approximation error
- ✅ You need extremely fast updates
- ✅ Your graph is very large (millions of vertices)
- ✅ You want cutting-edge performance
**Trade-offs**:
- Result is within (1+ε) of optimal (e.g., ε=0.1 → 10% error bound)
- **Fastest algorithm** for large graphs
```rust
let mut wrapper = MinCutWrapper::new_approx(
num_vertices,
0.1 // ε = 10% approximation
);
```
**Example**: If true minimum cut is 100, approximate algorithm returns 100-110.
### 4.3 PolylogConnectivity (Deterministic Worst-Case)
**Based on**: "Incremental (1+ε)-Approximate Dynamic Connectivity with polylog Worst-Case Time per Update" (Cen et al., 2025)
**Complexity**: O(log⁴ n / ε²) worst-case per operation
**When to use**:
- ✅ You need **guaranteed** worst-case performance
- ✅ Real-time systems with strict latency requirements
- ✅ Safety-critical applications
- ✅ You need predictable performance (no spikes)
**Trade-offs**:
- Slightly slower than amortized algorithms on average
- Provides deterministic guarantees
```rust
let mut wrapper = MinCutWrapper::new_polylog_connectivity(
num_vertices,
0.1 // ε = 10% approximation
);
```
### Performance Comparison
```mermaid
graph TD
subgraph "Performance Characteristics"
A[Exact Algorithm] --> A1["Amortized: O(n^o1)"]
A --> A2[Exact results]
A --> A3[Best general-purpose]

C --> C2[±ε error]
C --> C3[Predictable latency]
end
style A fill:#e1f5ff
style B fill:#ffe1e1
style C fill:#e1ffe1
```
---
## 5. Key Data Structures
Dynamic minimum cut algorithms rely on sophisticated data structures. You don't need to understand these deeply to use RuVector, but knowing they exist helps appreciate the complexity.
### 5.1 Link-Cut Trees
**Purpose**: Maintain connectivity in forests with dynamic edge insertions/deletions
**Operations**:
- `link(u, v)`: Connect two trees
- `cut(u, v)`: Disconnect an edge
- `find_root(v)`: Find root of v's tree
- `path_aggregate(u, v)`: Aggregate values on path from u to v
**Time Complexity**: O(log n) per operation (amortized)
```mermaid
graph TB
subgraph "Link-Cut Tree Structure"
R1[Root] --> C1[Child 1]
R1 --> C2[Child 2]
C1 --> G1[Grandchild 1]
C1 --> G2[Grandchild 2]
C2 --> G3[Grandchild 3]
end
subgraph "Operations"
O1[link: Add edge]
O2[cut: Remove edge]
O3[find_root: Query root]
O4[path_aggregate: Sum on path]
end
style R1 fill:#ffcccc
style C1 fill:#ccffcc
style C2 fill:#ccffcc
style G1 fill:#ccccff
style G2 fill:#ccccff
style G3 fill:#ccccff
```
**Used in**: All three algorithms for maintaining spanning forests
### 5.2 Euler Tour Trees
**Purpose**: Alternative dynamic connectivity structure with different trade-offs
**Key Idea**: Represent tree as a cyclic sequence (Euler tour)
**Advantages**:
- Efficient subtree operations
- Good for maintaining subtree properties
- Deterministic performance
**Time Complexity**: O(log n) per operation
```mermaid
graph LR
A[A] --> B[B]
A --> C[C]
B --> D[D]
B --> E[E]
subgraph "Euler Tour Sequence"
direction LR
ET[A → B → D → B → E → B → A → C → A]
end
style A fill:#ffcccc
style B fill:#ccffcc
style C fill:#ccccff
style D fill:#ffffcc
style E fill:#ffccff
```
**Used in**: PolylogConnectivity algorithm for deterministic guarantees
### 5.3 Hierarchical Decomposition
**Purpose**: Partition graph into levels with decreasing density
**Key Idea**:
- Level 0: Original graph
- Level i: Graph with edges of weight ≥ 2^i
- Higher levels are sparser
**Advantages**:
- Focus computation on relevant parts
- Skip unnecessary levels
- Efficient updates
```mermaid
graph TB
subgraph "Level 0 (All edges)"
L0A[A] ---|1| L0B[B]
L0A ---|2| L0C[C]
L0A ---|4| L0D[D]
L0B ---|8| L0C
end
subgraph "Level 1 (Weight ≥ 2)"
L1A[A] ---|2| L1C[C]
L1A ---|4| L1D[D]
L1B[B] ---|8| L1C
end
subgraph "Level 2 (Weight ≥ 4)"
L2A[A] ---|4| L2D[D]
L2B[B] ---|8| L2C[C]
end
subgraph "Level 3 (Weight ≥ 8)"
L3B[B] ---|8| L3C[C]
end
style L0A fill:#ffcccc
style L1A fill:#ccffcc
style L2A fill:#ccccff
style L3B fill:#ffffcc
```
**Used in**: Approximate and PolylogConnectivity algorithms for hierarchical graph processing
### 5.4 Local k-Cut Hierarchy
**Purpose**: Maintain minimum cuts of varying connectivity
**Key Idea**:
- Store cuts of different sizes (1-cut, 2-cut, ..., k-cut)
- Update only affected levels
- Query appropriate level for minimum cut
**Advantages**:
- Efficient querying of different cut sizes
- Incremental updates
- Supports connectivity curve analysis
```mermaid
graph TB
H1[1-Cut: λ=2] --> H2[2-Cut: λ=5]
H2 --> H3[3-Cut: λ=7]
H3 --> H4[4-Cut: λ=9]
style H1 fill:#ffcccc
style H2 fill:#ccffcc
style H3 fill:#ccccff
style H4 fill:#ffffcc
```
**Used in**: All algorithms for maintaining cut hierarchies

);
```
**PolylogConnectivity**:
```rust
// Best for: Real-time systems
let mut mincut = MinCutWrapper::new_polylog_connectivity(
50_000, // Medium-large graph
0.05 // Tight approximation for accuracy
);
```

## Midstream Integration
**Midstream** is ruv.io's low-latency streaming platform for real-time data processing.
### Real-Time Graph Updates
Process streaming graph updates and maintain min-cut information dynamically.
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::incremental::IncrementalMinCut;
use midstream::{Stream, StreamProcessor};
struct MinCutProcessor {
min_cut: IncrementalMinCut,
}
impl StreamProcessor for MinCutProcessor {
type Input = GraphUpdate;
type Output = CutMetrics;
fn process(&mut self, update: GraphUpdate) -> CutMetrics {
match update {
GraphUpdate::AddEdge(u, v, w) => {
self.min_cut.add_edge(u, v, w);
}
GraphUpdate::RemoveEdge(u, v) => {
self.min_cut.remove_edge(u, v);
}
}
CutMetrics {
current_min_cut: self.min_cut.current_value(),
connectivity: self.min_cut.edge_connectivity(),
timestamp: SystemTime::now(),
}
}
}
```
### Event Sourcing Patterns
Store graph mutations as events for replay and analysis.
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::Graph;
use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
enum GraphEvent {
EdgeAdded { u: u32, v: u32, weight: f64, timestamp: u64 },
EdgeRemoved { u: u32, v: u32, timestamp: u64 },
WeightUpdated { u: u32, v: u32, new_weight: f64, timestamp: u64 },
}
fn replay_events(events: &[GraphEvent]) -> Graph {
let mut graph = Graph::new();
for event in events {
match event {
GraphEvent::EdgeAdded { u, v, weight, .. } => {
graph.add_edge(*u, *v, *weight);
}
GraphEvent::EdgeRemoved { u, v, .. } => {
graph.remove_edge(*u, *v);
}
GraphEvent::WeightUpdated { u, v, new_weight, .. } => {
graph.update_edge_weight(*u, *v, *new_weight);
}
}
}
graph
}
```
### Streaming Analytics
Combine with Midstream for continuous analytics pipelines.
```rust
// Windowed min-cut analysis
let stream = midstream::connect("graph-updates")
.window(Duration::from_secs(60))
.map(|window| {
let graph = build_graph_from_window(window);
let (cut_value, partition) = karger_min_cut(&graph, 1000);
AnalyticsResult {
window_start: window.start_time,
window_end: window.end_time,
min_cut: cut_value,
largest_component: partition.largest_size(),
}
})
.into_stream();
```
---
## Advanced Integrations
### Combining with GNN for Learned Cut Prediction
Use Graph Neural Networks to predict good cuts before running expensive algorithms.
```rust
use ruvector_gnn::{GCNLayer, GraphConvolution};
use ruvector_mincut::{Graph, stoer_wagner};
struct LearnedCutPredictor {
gcn: GCNLayer,
}
impl LearnedCutPredictor {
/// Predict edge importance for cutting
fn predict_edge_scores(&self, graph: &Graph) -> Vec<f64> {
// Extract graph features
let features = extract_node_features(graph);
// Run GNN
let embeddings = self.gcn.forward(graph, &features);
// Compute edge scores from node embeddings
compute_edge_scores(graph, &embeddings)
}
/// Use learned scores to guide min-cut search
fn guided_min_cut(&self, graph: &Graph) -> (f64, Vec<u32>) {
let edge_scores = self.predict_edge_scores(graph);
// Weight edges by predicted importance
let weighted_graph = graph.with_edge_weights(&edge_scores);
// Run min-cut on weighted graph
stoer_wagner(&weighted_graph)
}
}
```
**Benefits:**
- Faster convergence for large graphs
- Learn domain-specific patterns
- Reduce computational cost by 10-100x
---
### Vector Similarity for Edge Weighting
Use vector embeddings to compute semantic edge weights.
```rust
use ruvector_core::{SimdVector, Distance};
use ruvector_index::HnswIndex;
use ruvector_mincut::Graph;
fn build_similarity_graph(
embeddings: &[Vec<f32>],
k: usize, // k-nearest neighbors
threshold: f64,
) -> Graph {
let mut index = HnswIndex::new(IndexConfig::default());
// Index all embeddings
for (i, emb) in embeddings.iter().enumerate() {
index.add(i as u32, emb);
}
let mut graph = Graph::new();
// Connect k-nearest neighbors
for (i, emb) in embeddings.iter().enumerate() {
let neighbors = index.search(emb, k);
for (j, distance) in neighbors {
if distance < threshold {
// Convert distance to similarity weight
let weight = 1.0 / (1.0 + distance);
graph.add_edge(i as u32, j, weight);
}
}
}
graph
}
```
**Use Cases:**
- Document clustering
- Image segmentation
- Recommendation systems
---
### Attention-Weighted Graphs
Use attention scores to create dynamic graph structures.
```rust
use ruvector_attention::{MultiHeadAttention, AttentionConfig};
use ruvector_mincut::Graph;
fn attention_to_graph(
nodes: &[Vec<f32>],
attention_heads: usize,
) -> Graph {
let dim = nodes[0].len();
let config = AttentionConfig::new(dim, attention_heads);
let mha = MultiHeadAttention::new(config);
// Compute attention weights
let attention_weights = mha.compute_attention_weights(nodes, nodes);
// Build graph from attention
let mut graph = Graph::new();
for (i, weights) in attention_weights.iter().enumerate() {
for (j, &weight) in weights.iter().enumerate() {
if i != j && weight > 0.1 { // Threshold
graph.add_edge(i as u32, j as u32, weight);
}
}
}
graph
}
```
**Applications:**
- Transformer attention analysis
- Neural architecture search
- Interpretability studies
---
### Multi-Modal Graph Analysis
Combine multiple RuVector crates for comprehensive analysis.
```rust
use ruvector_graph::Graph as PropertyGraph;
use ruvector_index::HnswIndex;
use ruvector_mincut::{Graph as MinCutGraph, hierarchical_partition};
use ruvector_gnn::GCNLayer;
struct MultiModalAnalyzer {
property_graph: PropertyGraph,
vector_index: HnswIndex,
gnn: GCNLayer,
}
impl MultiModalAnalyzer {
fn analyze(&self) -> AnalysisResult {
// 1. Extract topology for min-cut
let topology = self.property_graph.to_topology();
let mincut_graph = MinCutGraph::from_edges(&topology.edges);
// 2. Hierarchical partitioning
let hierarchy = hierarchical_partition(&mincut_graph, 4);
// 3. For each partition, run GNN
let mut partition_embeddings = Vec::new();
for partition in hierarchy.partitions {
let subgraph = self.property_graph.subgraph(&partition);
let features = extract_features(&subgraph);
let embeddings = self.gnn.forward(&subgraph, &features);
partition_embeddings.push(embeddings);
}
// 4. Index partition representatives
for (i, emb) in partition_embeddings.iter().enumerate() {
self.vector_index.add(i as u32, &emb.mean());
}
AnalysisResult {
hierarchy,
embeddings: partition_embeddings,
}
}
}
```

## 1. Compilation Errors
### Feature Flag Issues
**Error**: `use of undeclared type MonitorBuilder`
```
error[E0433]: failed to resolve: use of undeclared type `MonitorBuilder`
```
**Solution**: Enable the `monitoring` feature:
```toml
[dependencies]
ruvector-mincut = { version = "0.2", features = ["monitoring"] }
```
---
**Error**: `use of undeclared type CompactCoreState`
**Solution**: Enable the `agentic` feature:
```toml
[dependencies]
ruvector-mincut = { version = "0.2", features = ["agentic"] }
```
---
### Feature Flag Reference
| Type/Feature | Required Feature Flag |
|--------------|----------------------|
| `MonitorBuilder`, `MinCutMonitor` | `monitoring` |
| `CompactCoreState`, `BitSet256` | `agentic` |
| `SparseGraph` | `approximate` |
| SIMD optimizations | `simd` |
| WASM support | `wasm` |
### Version Compatibility
**Error**: `the trait bound is not satisfied`
Check your dependency versions are compatible:
```toml
[dependencies]
ruvector-mincut = "0.2"
ruvector-core = "0.1.2" # Must be compatible
ruvector-graph = "0.1.2" # If using integration feature
```
---
## 2. Runtime Errors
### EdgeExists Error
**Error**: `EdgeExists(1, 2)` when inserting an edge
```rust
// ❌ This will fail - edge already exists
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0)?;
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 2.0)?; // Error!
```
**Solution**: Check if edge exists first, or delete before reinserting:
```rust
// ✅ Option 1: Delete first
let _ = mincut.delete_edge(1, 2); // Ignore if not found
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 2.0)?;
// ✅ Option 2: Check existence (if your API supports it)
if !mincut.has_edge(1, 2) {
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0)?;
}
```
### EdgeNotFound Error
**Error**: `EdgeNotFound(3, 4)` when deleting
```rust
// ❌ Edge doesn't exist
mincut.delete_edge(3, 4)?; // Error!
```
**Solution**: Use pattern matching to handle gracefully:
```rust
// ✅ Handle gracefully
match mincut.delete_edge(3, 4) {
Ok(new_cut) => println!("New min cut: {}", new_cut),
Err(MinCutError::EdgeNotFound(_, _)) => {
println!("Edge already removed, continuing...");
}
Err(e) => return Err(e.into()),
}
```
### Disconnected Graph
**Issue**: Min cut value is 0
```rust
let mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.with_edges(vec![
(1, 2, 1.0),
(3, 4, 1.0), // Separate component!
])
.build()?;
assert_eq!(mincut.min_cut_value(), 0.0); // Zero because disconnected
```
**Solution**: Ensure your graph is connected, or handle disconnected case:
```rust
if !mincut.is_connected() {
println!("Warning: Graph has {} components",
mincut.component_count());
// Handle each component separately
}
```
---
## 3. Performance Issues
### Slow Insert/Delete Operations
**Symptom**: Operations taking longer than expected
```mermaid
graph LR
A[Slow Operations] --> B{Check Graph Size}
B -->|< 10K vertices| C[Normal - check algorithm]
B -->|10K-100K| D[Consider approximate mode]
B -->|> 100K| E[Use ApproxMinCut]
```
**Solutions**:
1. **Use approximate mode for large graphs**:
```rust
// Instead of exact mode
let mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.approximate(0.1) // 10% approximation
.with_edges(edges)
.build()?;
```
2. **Use batch operations**:
```rust
// ❌ Slow - many individual operations
for (u, v, w) in edges {
mincut.insert_edge(u, v, w)?;
}
// ✅ Fast - batch operation
mincut.batch_insert_edges(&edges);
```
3. **For worst-case guarantees, use PolylogConnectivity**:
```rust
// O(log³ n) worst-case per operation
let mut conn = PolylogConnectivity::new();
for (u, v) in edges {
conn.insert_edge(u, v);
}
```
### Memory Issues
**Symptom**: High memory usage or OOM errors
**Solutions**:
1. **Use approximate mode** (reduces edges via sparsification):
```rust
let mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.approximate(0.1) // Sparsifies to O(n log n / ε²) edges
.build()?;
```
2. **For WASM/embedded, use compact structures**:
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "agentic")]
{
// 6.7KB per core - verified at compile time
let state = CompactCoreState::new();
}
```
3. **Process in batches for very large graphs**:
```rust
// Process graph in chunks
for chunk in graph_chunks.iter() {
let partial = MinCutBuilder::new()
.with_edges(chunk)
.build()?;
// Aggregate results
}
```
### Query Performance
**Symptom**: `min_cut_value()` is slow
**Explanation**: First query triggers computation; subsequent queries are O(1):
```rust
let mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.with_edges(edges)
.build()?;
// First query - triggers full computation
let cut1 = mincut.min_cut_value(); // May take time
// Subsequent queries - O(1) cached
let cut2 = mincut.min_cut_value(); // Instant
```
---
## 4. Unexpected Results
### Min Cut Value Seems Wrong
**Checklist**:
1. **Verify edge weights are correct**:
```rust
// Weight matters! This is different from weight 1.0
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 10.0)?;
```
2. **Check for duplicate edges** (weights accumulate):
```rust
// These DON'T accumulate - second insert fails
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 5.0)?;
mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 5.0)?; // Error: EdgeExists
```
3. **Understand the cut definition**:
```rust
// Min cut = minimum total weight of edges to remove
// to disconnect the graph
let result = mincut.min_cut();
println!("Cut value: {}", result.value);
println!("Cut edges: {:?}", result.cut_edges);
```
### Approximate Results Vary
**Issue**: Different runs give different results
**Explanation**: Approximate mode uses randomized sparsification:
```rust
// Results may vary slightly between builds
let mincut1 = MinCutBuilder::new()
.approximate(0.1)
.with_edges(edges.clone())
.build()?;
let mincut2 = MinCutBuilder::new()
.approximate(0.1)
.with_edges(edges)
.build()?;
// Values are within (1±ε) of true min cut
// but may differ from each other
```
**Solution**: Use a fixed seed if reproducibility is needed:
```rust
let approx = ApproxMinCut::new(ApproxMinCutConfig {
epsilon: 0.1,
num_samples: 3,
seed: 42, // Fixed seed for reproducibility
});
```
### Partition Looks Unbalanced
**Issue**: One side of partition has most vertices
**Explanation**: Minimum cut doesn't guarantee balanced partitions:
```rust
let result = mincut.min_cut();
let (s, t) = result.partition.unwrap();
// This is valid - min cut found the minimum edges to cut
// Partition balance is NOT a constraint
println!("Partition sizes: {} vs {}", s.len(), t.len());
```
**Solution**: For balanced partitions, use `GraphPartitioner`:
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::GraphPartitioner;
let partitioner = GraphPartitioner::new(graph, 2);
let balanced = partitioner.partition(); // More balanced
```
---
## 5. WASM-Specific Issues
### WASM Build Fails
**Error**: `wasm32 target not installed`
```bash
# Install the target
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
# Build with wasm-pack
wasm-pack build --target web
```
### WASM Memory Limits
**Issue**: WASM running out of memory
**Solution**: Use compact structures and limit graph size:
```rust
// Maximum recommended for WASM
const MAX_WASM_VERTICES: usize = 50_000;
if vertices.len() > MAX_WASM_VERTICES {
// Use approximate mode or process in chunks
let mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.approximate(0.2) // More aggressive sparsification
.build()?;
}
```
### Web Worker Integration
**Issue**: Main thread blocking
**Solution**: Run min-cut computation in Web Worker:
```javascript
// worker.js
import init, { WasmMinCut } from 'ruvector-mincut-wasm';
self.onmessage = async (e) => {
await init();
const mincut = new WasmMinCut();
// ... compute
self.postMessage({ result: mincut.min_cut_value() });
};
```
---
## 6. Node.js-Specific Issues
### Native Module Build Fails
**Error**: `node-gyp` or `napi` build errors
```bash
# Ensure build tools are installed
# On Ubuntu/Debian:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
# On macOS:
xcode-select --install
# On Windows:
npm install --global windows-build-tools
```
### Module Not Found
**Error**: `Cannot find module 'ruvector-mincut-node'`
```bash
# Rebuild native modules
npm rebuild
# Or reinstall
rm -rf node_modules
npm install
```
---
## 7. Common Patterns That Cause Issues
### Anti-Pattern: Not Handling Errors
```rust
// ❌ Panics on error
let cut = mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0).unwrap();
// ✅ Handle errors properly
let cut = mincut.insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0)
.map_err(|e| {
eprintln!("Insert failed: {}", e);
e
})?;
```
### Anti-Pattern: Rebuilding Instead of Updating
```rust
// ❌ Slow - rebuilds entire structure
for update in updates {
let mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.with_edges(all_edges_including_update)
.build()?;
}
// ✅ Fast - incremental updates
let mut mincut = MinCutBuilder::new()
.with_edges(initial_edges)
.build()?;
for (u, v, w) in updates {
mincut.insert_edge(u, v, w)?;
}
```
### Anti-Pattern: Ignoring Feature Requirements
```rust
// ❌ Compiles but panics at runtime if feature not enabled
#[cfg(feature = "monitoring")]
let monitor = MonitorBuilder::new().build();
// ✅ Proper feature gating
#[cfg(feature = "monitoring")]
{
let monitor = MonitorBuilder::new().build();
// Use monitor
}
#[cfg(not(feature = "monitoring"))]
{
println!("Monitoring not available - enable 'monitoring' feature");
}
```

## Quick Reference: Error Codes
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| `EdgeExists(u, v)` | Duplicate edge insertion | Delete first or check existence |
| `EdgeNotFound(u, v)` | Deleting non-existent edge | Use pattern matching |
| `InvalidWeight` | Zero or negative weight | Use positive weights |
| `GraphTooLarge` | Exceeds memory limits | Use approximate mode |
| `NotConnected` | Graph has multiple components | Check connectivity first |

# Graph Sparsification Implementation
## Overview
Implemented complete graph sparsification module at `/home/user/ruvector/crates/ruvector-mincut/src/sparsify/mod.rs` for (1+ε)-approximate minimum cuts using O(n log n / ε²) edges.
## Implementation Details
### 1. Core Structures
#### SparsifyConfig
```rust
pub struct SparsifyConfig {
pub epsilon: f64, // Approximation parameter (0 < ε ≤ 1)
pub seed: Option<u64>, // Random seed for reproducibility
pub max_edges: Option<usize>, // Maximum edges limit
}
```
**Features:**
- Builder pattern with `with_seed()` and `with_max_edges()`
- Validation for epsilon parameter
- Default configuration with ε = 0.1
#### SparseGraph
```rust
pub struct SparseGraph {
graph: DynamicGraph, // The sparsified graph
edge_weights: HashMap<EdgeId, Weight>, // Original weights
epsilon: f64, // Approximation parameter
original_edges: usize, // Original edge count
rng: StdRng, // Random number generator
strength_calc: EdgeStrength, // Edge strength calculator
}
```
**Features:**
- `from_graph()`: Create sparsified version using Benczúr-Karger
- `num_edges()`: Get edge count (should be O(n log n / ε²))
- `sparsification_ratio()`: Ratio of sparse to original edges
- `approximate_min_cut()`: Query approximate minimum cut
- `insert_edge()`: Dynamic edge insertion with resampling
- `delete_edge()`: Dynamic edge deletion
- `epsilon()`: Get approximation parameter
### 2. Sparsification Algorithms
#### Benczúr-Karger Sparsification
**Algorithm:**
1. Compute edge strengths λ_e for all edges
2. Calculate sampling probability: p_e = min(1, c·log(n) / (ε²·λ_e))
3. Sample each edge with probability p_e
4. Scale sampled edge weights by 1/p_e
**Implementation:**
```rust
fn benczur_karger_sparsify(
original: &DynamicGraph,
sparse: &DynamicGraph,
edge_weights: &mut HashMap<EdgeId, Weight>,
strength_calc: &mut EdgeStrength,
epsilon: f64,
rng: &mut StdRng,
max_edges: Option<usize>,
) -> Result<()>
```
**Properties:**
- Preserves (1±ε) approximation of all cuts
- O(n log n / ε²) expected edges
- Randomized algorithm with seed control
#### Edge Strength Calculation
```rust
pub struct EdgeStrength {
graph: Arc<DynamicGraph>,
strengths: HashMap<EdgeId, f64>,
}
```
**Methods:**
- `compute(u, v)`: Compute strength of edge (u,v)
- `compute_all()`: Compute all edge strengths
- `invalidate(v)`: Invalidate cached strengths for vertex v
**Approximation Strategy:**
- True strength: max-flow between u and v without edge (u,v)
- Approximation: minimum of sum of incident edge weights at u and v
- Caching for efficiency
#### Nagamochi-Ibaraki Sparsification
**Deterministic sparsification** preserving k-connectivity:
```rust
pub struct NagamochiIbaraki {
graph: Arc<DynamicGraph>,
}
```
**Algorithm:**
1. Compute minimum degree ordering of vertices
2. Scan vertices to determine edge connectivity
3. Keep only edges with connectivity ≥ k
**Implementation:**
```rust
pub fn sparse_k_certificate(&self, k: usize) -> Result<DynamicGraph>
```
**Properties:**
- Deterministic (no randomness)
- O(nk) edges for k-connectivity
- Exact preservation of minimum cuts up to value k
### 3. Utility Functions
#### Karger's Sparsification
Convenience function combining configuration and sparsification:
```rust
pub fn karger_sparsify(
graph: &DynamicGraph,
epsilon: f64,
seed: Option<u64>,
) -> Result<SparseGraph>
```
#### Sample Probability
Computes edge sampling probability based on strength:
```rust
fn sample_probability(strength: f64, epsilon: f64, n: f64, c: f64) -> f64
```
Formula: `p_e = min(1, c·log(n) / (ε²·λ_e))`
- Constant c = 6.0 for theoretical guarantees
- Higher strength → lower probability
- Always capped at 1.0

.unwrap()
.with_seed(42);
let sparse = SparseGraph::from_graph(&graph, config).unwrap();
println!("Original: {} edges", graph.num_edges());
println!("Sparse: {} edges", sparse.num_edges());
println!("Ratio: {:.2}%", sparse.sparsification_ratio() * 100.0);
println!("Approx min cut: {:.2}", sparse.approximate_min_cut());

### Lazy Updates (Batched)
```rust
use ruvector_mincut::LazyWitnessTree;
let mut lazy = LazyWitnessTree::with_threshold(graph, 10)?;
// Batch 10 updates
for i in 1..=10 {
lazy.insert_edge(i, i+1, 1.0)?;
}
// Force flush and get result
let min_cut = lazy.min_cut_value();
```
## Data Structures
### EdgeWitness
```rust
pub struct EdgeWitness {
pub tree_edge: (VertexId, VertexId), // Canonical form (min, max)
pub cut_value: Weight, // Value of this cut
pub cut_side: HashSet<VertexId>, // Vertices on one side
}
```
### WitnessTree
- **lct**: Link-Cut Tree for O(log n) connectivity
- **witnesses**: HashMap of tree edge witnesses
- **tree_edges**: Spanning forest edges
- **non_tree_edges**: Cycle-forming edges
- **min_cut**: Cached minimum cut value
- **min_cut_edges**: Edges in the minimum cut
## Common Patterns
### Building from Existing Graph
```rust
// Graph already has edges
let graph = Arc::new(RwLock::new(DynamicGraph::new()));
graph.write().insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0)?;
graph.write().insert_edge(2, 3, 1.0)?;
// Build witness tree
let witness = WitnessTree::build(graph.clone())?;
```
### Dynamic Construction
```rust
// Start empty
let graph = Arc::new(RwLock::new(DynamicGraph::new()));
let mut witness = WitnessTree::build(graph.clone())?;
// Add edges dynamically
graph.write().insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0)?;
witness.insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0)?;
graph.write().insert_edge(2, 3, 1.0)?;
witness.insert_edge(2, 3, 1.0)?;
```
### Checking Tree Structure
```rust
// Find which edges are in the spanning tree
for (u, v) in all_edges {
if witness.is_tree_edge(u, v) {
if let Some(w) = witness.find_witness(u, v) {
println!("Edge ({}, {}) has witness cut {}", u, v, w.cut_value);
}
}
}
```
## Edge Cases
### Disconnected Graph
```rust
// Returns 0.0 (no cut exists)
let min_cut = witness.min_cut_value();
assert_eq!(min_cut, 0.0);
```
### Single Vertex
```rust
// Returns infinity
let min_cut = witness.min_cut_value();
assert!(min_cut.is_infinite());
```
### Empty Graph
```rust
// Returns infinity
let min_cut = witness.min_cut_value();
assert!(min_cut.is_infinite());
```
## Performance Tips
1. **Use Lazy Updates**: For sequences of operations, use `LazyWitnessTree`
2. **Batch Threshold**: Tune threshold based on update pattern (default: 10)
3. **Avoid Repeated Queries**: Cache `min_cut_value()` result if querying multiple times
4. **Tree Edge Queries**: Check `is_tree_edge()` before `find_witness()`

println!("After insert: {}", new_cut);
// Delete edge
graph.write().delete_edge(1, 2)?;
let updated_cut = witness.delete_edge(1, 2)?;
println!("After delete: {}", updated_cut);
Ok(())
}
```

```rust
// Insert returns Result
match witness.insert_edge(u, v, weight) {
Ok(new_cut) => println!("Success: {}", new_cut),
Err(e) => eprintln!("Error: {}", e),
}
// Delete returns Result
match witness.delete_edge(u, v) {
Ok(new_cut) => println!("Success: {}", new_cut),
Err(MinCutError::EdgeNotFound(u, v)) => {
eprintln!("Edge ({}, {}) not found", u, v);
}
Err(e) => eprintln!("Error: {}", e),
}

# Witness Trees Implementation
## Overview
This document describes the implementation of Witness Trees for dynamic minimum cut maintenance, following the Jin-Sun-Thorup algorithm from SODA 2024: "Fully Dynamic Exact Minimum Cut in Subpolynomial Time".
## What are Witness Trees?
Witness trees maintain a spanning forest of a graph where each tree edge is "witnessed" by a cut that certifies its inclusion in the tree. This data structure enables efficient dynamic maintenance of minimum cuts.
### Key Properties
1. **Witness Invariant**: Each tree edge (u,v) has a witness cut C such that removing (u,v) from the tree reveals C
2. **Minimum Cut Certificate**: The minimum among all witness cuts equals the graph's minimum cut
3. **Lazy Updates**: Updates are performed lazily to achieve better amortized complexity
## Architecture
### Core Components
```
WitnessTree
├── LinkCutTree # Dynamic connectivity queries
├── Witnesses # HashMap of edge witnesses
├── Tree Edges # Spanning forest edges
├── Non-Tree Edges # Cycle-forming edges
└── Min Cut Info # Cached minimum cut value and edges
```
### Key Data Structures
```rust
// Witness for a tree edge
pub struct EdgeWitness {
pub tree_edge: (VertexId, VertexId),
pub cut_value: Weight,
pub cut_side: HashSet<VertexId>, // One side of the cut
}
// Main witness tree structure
pub struct WitnessTree {
lct: LinkCutTree, // O(log n) connectivity
witnesses: HashMap<(VertexId, VertexId), EdgeWitness>,
min_cut: Weight,
min_cut_edges: Vec<Edge>,
graph: Arc<RwLock<DynamicGraph>>,
dirty: bool,
tree_edges: HashSet<(VertexId, VertexId)>,
non_tree_edges: HashSet<(VertexId, VertexId)>,
}
```
## Algorithm Details
### Build Phase
```rust
fn build_spanning_tree() -> Result<()>
```
1. **Spanning Tree Construction** (BFS):
- O(n + m) time
- Creates spanning forest for disconnected graphs
- Identifies tree vs non-tree edges
2. **Witness Computation**:
- For each tree edge (u,v):
- Find components after removing (u,v)
- Compute cut value between components
- Store witness
**Complexity**: O(n·m) for initial build
### Insert Edge
```rust
pub fn insert_edge(u, v, weight) -> Result<Weight>
```
**Case 1: Bridge Edge** (u and v in different components)
- Add to spanning tree
- Link in Link-Cut Tree
- Compute witness for new edge
- Update min cut if needed
**Case 2: Cycle Edge** (u and v already connected)
- Add to non-tree edges
- Mark dirty for recomputation
- May improve minimum cut
**Complexity**: Amortized O(log n) with lazy updates
### Delete Edge
```rust
pub fn delete_edge(u, v) -> Result<Weight>
```
**Case 1: Tree Edge**
- Remove from spanning tree
- Cut in Link-Cut Tree
- Find replacement edge in non-tree edges
- If found: add to tree, compute witness
- Update min cut
**Case 2: Non-Tree Edge**
- Remove from non-tree edges
- Mark dirty for recomputation
**Complexity**: O(m) worst case (finding replacement), O(log n) amortized
### Finding Minimum Cut
```rust
fn recompute_min_cut()
```
1. Examine all tree edge witnesses
2. Find witness with minimum cut value
3. Collect edges in that cut
4. Cache result
**Complexity**: O(number of tree edges) = O(n)
## Optimizations
### 1. Lazy Witness Tree
```rust
pub struct LazyWitnessTree {
inner: WitnessTree,
pending_updates: Vec<(VertexId, VertexId, bool)>,
batch_threshold: usize,
}
```
- Batches updates together
- Flushes when threshold reached
- Better amortized complexity for sequences
### 2. Link-Cut Tree Integration
- O(log n) connectivity queries
- O(log n) link/cut operations
- Path compression for efficiency
### 3. Canonical Edge Keys
```rust
fn canonical_key(u, v) -> (VertexId, VertexId) {
if u <= v { (u, v) } else { (v, u) }
}
```
- Consistent edge representation
- Efficient HashMap lookups
- Avoids duplicate edges
## Complexity Analysis
| Operation | Time Complexity | Space Complexity |
|-----------|----------------|------------------|
| Build | O(n·m) | O(n + m) |
| Insert Edge | O(log n) amortized | O(1) |
| Delete Edge | O(m) worst, O(log n) amortized | O(1) |
| Min Cut Query | O(1) | - |
| Find Witness | O(1) | - |
## Implementation Notes
### Thread Safety
The implementation uses `Arc<RwLock<DynamicGraph>>` for thread-safe graph access:
- Multiple concurrent reads allowed
- Exclusive write access when modifying
### Edge Cases Handled
1. **Empty Graph**: Returns ∞ for min cut
2. **Disconnected Graph**: Returns 0 (no cut exists)
3. **Single Vertex**: Returns ∞
4. **Dynamic Vertices**: Automatically adds new vertices to LCT
### Limitations
1. **Spanning Tree Dependency**: Only considers cuts corresponding to tree edges
2. **Approximation**: May not find optimal cut if it doesn't correspond to tree structure
3. **Replacement Search**: Finding replacement edges is O(m) in worst case
## Testing

use ruvector_mincut::{DynamicGraph, WitnessTree};
// Create graph
let graph = Arc::new(RwLock::new(DynamicGraph::new()));
graph.write().insert_edge(1, 2, 1.0).unwrap();
graph.write().insert_edge(2, 3, 1.0).unwrap();
graph.write().insert_edge(3, 1, 1.0).unwrap();
// Build witness tree

println!("Cut edges: {:?}", witness.min_cut_edges());
```
### Dynamic Updates
```rust
