A/B testing is an effective way to assess the potential impacts of two treatments. For A/B tests conducted by IT companies, the test users of A/B testing are often connected and form a social network. The responses of A/B testing can be related to the network connection of test users. This paper discusses the relationship between the design criteria of network A/B testing and graph cut objectives. We develop asymptotic distributions of graph cut objectives to enable rerandomization algorithms for the design of network A/B testing under two scenarios.
