Gomory-Hu Tree Algorithm

Graph Algorithm

The Gomory-Hu tree of an undirected graph with capacities is a weighted tree, studied in combinatorial optimization, that represents the minimum s-t cuts for every pair of vertices in the graph. It can be constructed using one fewer maximum-flow computation than the number of vertices in the graph, and it is named for Ralph E. Gomory and T. C. Hu.
