We show that the tightest relaxation is obtained when aplying the Lasserre construction to the node formulation of the max-cut problem. This relaxation Q t (G) can be deened as the projection on the edge subspace of the set F t (n), which consists of the matrices indexed by all subsets of 1; n] of cardinality t + 1 with the same parity as t + 1 and having the property that their (I; J)-th entry depends only on the symmetric diierence of the sets I and J. The set F 0 (n) is the basic semideenite relaxation of max-cut consisting of the semideenite matrices of order n with an all ones diagonal, while F n?2 (n) is the 2 n?1-dimensional simplex with the cut matrices as vertices. We show the following geometric properties: If Y 2 F t (n) has rank t + 1, then Y can be written as a convex combination of at most 2 t cut matrices, extending a result of Anjos and Wolkowicz for the case t = 1; any 2 t+1 cut matrices form a face of F t (n) for t = 0; 1; n ? 2. The class L t of the graphs G for which Q t (G) is the cut polytope of G is shown to be closed under taking minors. The graph K 7 is a forbidden minor for membership in L 2 , while K 3 and K 5 are the only minimal forbidden minors for the classes L 0 and L 1 , respectively.","PeriodicalId":416196,"journal":{"name":"The Sharpest Cut","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124064375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
