Description

Fix an instance of negative triangle with node sets $I, J, K$ and weight function $w$. Let $i \in I, j \in J, k \in K$. Recall that the triple $(i, j, k)$ is a negative triangle iff $(w(i, k) \odot w(k, j)) + w(i, j) < 0$. Fix a total ordering $<$ on the nodes in $K$ in the negative triangle instance. For any $i \in I, j \in J$, a node $k \in K$ is called a minimum witness for $(i, j)$ if $(i, j, k)$ is a negative triangle but $(i, j, k')$ is not a negative triangle for all $k' < k$ according to the ordering.

Minimum Witness Finding is the problem of finding a negative triangle $(i,j,k)$ such that $k$ is a minimum witness for $(i,j)$.
