This result partially answers an open question posed by Thorup [Combinatorica 2007]. It also stays in sharp contrast to a polynomial conditional lower-bound for the fully-dynamic weighted minimum cut problem. Our algorithm is obtained by combining a recent sparsification technique of Kawarabayashi and Thorup [STOC 2015] and an exact incremental algorithm of Henzinger [J. of Algorithm 1997].\r\n\r\nWe also study space-efficient incremental algorithms for the minimum cut problem. Concretely, we show that there exists an O(n log n/epsilon^2) space Monte-Carlo algorithm that can process a stream of edge insertions starting from an empty graph, and with high probability, the algorithm maintains a (1+epsilon)-approximation to the minimum cut. The algorithm has ~O(1) amortized update-time and constant query-time."}],"publication":"24th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms","day":"18","quality_controlled":"1","publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","status":"public","alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"date_published":"2016-08-18T00:00:00Z","author":[{"first_name":"Gramoz","last_name":"Goranci","full_name":"Goranci, Gramoz"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-5008-6530","last_name":"Henzinger","first_name":"Monika H","id":"540c9bbd-f2de-11ec-812d-d04a5be85630","full_name":"Henzinger, Monika H"},{"first_name":"Mikkel","last_name":"Thorup","full_name":"Thorup, Mikkel"}],"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-95977-015-6"],"issn":["1868-8969"]},"article_processing_charge":"No","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
