The parametric global minimum cut problem concerns a graph [Formula Presented] where the cost of each edge is an affine function of a parameter [Formula Presented] for some fixed dimension d. We consider the problems of finding the next breakpoint in a given direction, and finding a parameter value with maximum minimum cut value. We develop strongly polynomial algorithms for these problems that are faster than a naive application of Megiddo’s parametric search technique. Our results indicate that the next breakpoint problem is easier than the max value problem.
