We consider this problem in bounded degree graphs with a given tree decomposition (T, X) and prove an upper bound for their minimum bisection width in terms of the structure and width of (T, X). When (T, X) is provided as input, a bisection satisfying our bound can be computed in time proportional to the encoding length of (T, X). Furthermore, our result can be generalized to k-section, which is known to be APX-hard even when restricted to trees with bounded degree.en1571-06532015481488Minimum BisectionMinimum k-SectionTree decompositionMathematikJournal Article10.1016/j.endm.2015.06.067Other
