dc.description.abstract	It has been shown that simple evolutionary algorithms are able to solve the minimum cut problem in expected polynomial time when using a multi-objective model of the problem. In this paper, we generalize these ideas to the NP-hard minimum multicut problem. Given a set of k terminal pairs, we prove that evolutionary algorithms in combination with a multi-objective model of the problem are able to obtain a k-approximation for this problem in expected polynomial time.	en
