Algorithms for the Determination of Cutsets in a Hypergraph

Given a hypergraph, this paper provides three algorithms for finding all its minimal cutsets, minimal link cutsets and the least cutsets. The result not only set up a new studying field on cutsets of hypergraph, but also lay a foundation of analyzing the performance of multibus systems. The algorithm for determining all the least cutsets in a hypergraph is polynomial complex and more efficient than that in 2.
