We present a .699-approximation algorithm fur Max-Bisection, i.e., partitioning the nodes of a weighted graph into two blocks of equal cardinality so as to maximize the weights of crossing edges. This is an improved result from the .651-approximation algorithm of Frieze and Jerrum and the semidefinite programming relaxation of Goemans and Williamson.
