Fast compiled graphs#

This is a Cython implementation of the base class for sparse and dense graphs in Sage. It is not intended for use on its own. Specific graph types should extend this base class and implement missing functionalities. Whenever possible, specific methods should also be overridden with implementations that suit the graph type under consideration.

For an overview of graph data structures in sage, see overview.

Data structure#

The class CGraph maintains the following variables:

  • cdef int num_verts

  • cdef int num_arcs

  • cdef int *in_degrees

  • cdef int *out_degrees

  • cdef bitset_t active_vertices

The bitset active_vertices is a list of all available vertices for use, but only the ones which are set are considered to actually be in the graph. The variables num_verts and num_arcs are self-explanatory. Note that num_verts is the number of bits set in active_vertices, not the full length of the bitset. The arrays in_degrees and out_degrees are of the same length as the bitset.

For more information about active vertices, see the documentation for the method realloc.

class sage.graphs.base.c_graph.CGraph[source]#

Bases: object

Compiled sparse and dense graphs.

add_arc(u, v)[source]#

Add arc (u, v) to the graph.

INPUT:

  • u, v – non-negative integers, must be in self

EXAMPLES:

On the CGraph level, this always produces an error, as there are no vertices:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraph
sage: G = CGraph()
sage: G.add_arc(0, 1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (0) is not a vertex of the graph

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraph
>>> G = CGraph()
>>> G.add_arc(Integer(0), Integer(1))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (0) is not a vertex of the graph

It works, once there are vertices and add_arc_unsafe() is implemented:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
sage: G = DenseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc(0, 1)
sage: G.add_arc(4, 7)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (7) is not a vertex of the graph
sage: G.has_arc(1, 0)
False
sage: G.has_arc(0, 1)
True

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: G = SparseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc(0,1)

>>> G.has_arc(Integer(1),Integer(0))
False
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(0),Integer(1))
True
add_vertex(k=-1)[source]#

Adds vertex k to the graph.

INPUT:

  • k – nonnegative integer or -1 (default: -1); if \(k = -1\), a new vertex is added and the integer used is returned. That is, for \(k = -1\), this function will find the first available vertex that is not in self and add that vertex to this graph.

OUTPUT:

  • -1 – indicates that no vertex was added because the current allocation is already full or the vertex is out of range.

  • nonnegative integer – this vertex is now guaranteed to be in the graph.

  • add_vertex_unsafe – add a vertex to a graph. This method is potentially unsafe. You should instead use add_vertex().

  • add_vertices – add a bunch of vertices to a graph

EXAMPLES:

Adding vertices to a sparse graph:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: G = SparseGraph(3, extra_vertices=3)
sage: G.add_vertex(3)
3
sage: G.add_arc(2, 5)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (5) is not a vertex of the graph
sage: G.add_arc(1, 3)
sage: G.has_arc(1, 3)
True
sage: G.has_arc(2, 3)
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
>>> G = SparseGraph(Integer(3), extra_vertices=Integer(3))
>>> G.add_vertex(Integer(3))
3
>>> G.add_arc(Integer(2), Integer(5))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (5) is not a vertex of the graph
>>> G.add_arc(Integer(1), Integer(3))
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(1), Integer(3))
True
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(2), Integer(3))
False

Adding vertices to a dense graph:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
sage: G = DenseGraph(3, extra_vertices=3)
sage: G.add_vertex(3)
3
sage: G.add_arc(2,5)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (5) is not a vertex of the graph
sage: G.add_arc(1, 3)
sage: G.has_arc(1, 3)
True
sage: G.has_arc(2, 3)
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
>>> G = DenseGraph(Integer(3), extra_vertices=Integer(3))
>>> G.add_vertex(Integer(3))
3
>>> G.add_arc(Integer(2),Integer(5))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (5) is not a vertex of the graph
>>> G.add_arc(Integer(1), Integer(3))
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(1), Integer(3))
True
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(2), Integer(3))
False

Repeatedly adding a vertex using \(k = -1\) will allocate more memory as required:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: G = SparseGraph(3, extra_vertices=0)
sage: G.verts()
[0, 1, 2]
sage: for i in range(10):
....:     _ = G.add_vertex(-1);
...
sage: G.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
>>> G = SparseGraph(Integer(3), extra_vertices=Integer(0))
>>> G.verts()
[0, 1, 2]
>>> for i in range(Integer(10)):
...     _ = G.add_vertex(-Integer(1));
...
>>> G.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12]

...
sage: G.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14]

[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14]
add_vertices(verts)[source]#

Add vertices from the iterable verts.

INPUT:

  • verts – an iterable of vertices; value -1 has a special meaning – for each such value an unused vertex name is found, used to create a new vertex and returned.

OUTPUT:

List of generated labels if there is any -1 in verts. None otherwise.

>>> S.realloc(Integer(20))
>>> S.verts()

sage: D = DenseGraph(nverts=4, extra_vertices=4)
sage: D.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3]
sage: D.add_vertices([3, -1, 4, 9])
[5]
sage: D.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9]
sage: D.realloc(20)
sage: D.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
>>> D = DenseGraph(nverts=Integer(4), extra_vertices=Integer(4))
>>> D.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3]
>>> D.add_vertices([Integer(3), -Integer(1), Integer(4), Integer(9)])
[5]
>>> D.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9]
>>> D.realloc(Integer(20))
>>> D.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9]
all_arcs(u, v)[source]#

Gives the labels of all arcs (u, v). An unlabeled arc is interpreted as having label 0.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: G = SparseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,1)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,2)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,2)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,2)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,3)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,3)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,4)
sage: G.all_arcs(1,2)
[4, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
>>> G = SparseGraph(Integer(5))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(1))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(2))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(2))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(2))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(3))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(3))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(4))
>>> G.all_arcs(Integer(1),Integer(2))
[4, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1]
arc_label(u, v)[source]#

Retrieves the first label found associated with (u, v).

INPUT:

  • u, v – non-negative integers, must be in self

OUTPUT: one of

  • positive integer – indicates that there is a label on (u, v).

  • 0 – either the arc (u, v) is unlabeled, or there is no arc at all.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: G = SparseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc_label(3,4,7)
sage: G.arc_label(3,4)
7

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
>>> G = SparseGraph(Integer(5))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(3),Integer(4),Integer(7))
>>> G.arc_label(Integer(3),Integer(4))
7

To this function, an unlabeled arc is indistinguishable from a non-arc:

sage: G.add_arc_label(1,0)
sage: G.arc_label(1,0)
0
sage: G.arc_label(1,1)
0

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(0))
>>> G.arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(0))
0
>>> G.arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(1))
0

This function only returns the first label it finds from u to v:

sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,1)
sage: G.add_arc_label(1,2,2)
sage: G.arc_label(1,2)
2

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(1))
>>> G.add_arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(2))
>>> G.arc_label(Integer(1),Integer(2))
2
check_vertex(n)[source]#

Check that n is a vertex of self.

This method is different from has_vertex(). The current method raises an error if n is not a vertex of this graph. On the other hand, has_vertex() returns a boolean to signify whether or not n is a vertex of this graph.

INPUT:

  • n – a nonnegative integer representing a vertex

OUTPUT:

  • Raise an error if n is not a vertex of this graph

  • has_vertex() – determine whether this graph has a specific vertex

current_allocation()[source]#

Report the number of vertices allocated.

OUTPUT:

  • The number of vertices allocated. This number is usually different from the order of a graph. We may have allocated enough memory for a graph to hold \(n > 0\) vertices, but the order (actual number of vertices) of the graph could be less than \(n\).

The actual number of vertices in a graph might be less than the number of vertices allocated for the graph:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
sage: G = DenseGraph(nverts=3, extra_vertices=2)
sage: order = len(G.verts())
sage: order

>>> G.current_allocation()
5
>>> order < G.current_allocation()
True
del_all_arcs(u, v)[source]#

Delete all arcs from u to v.

INPUT:

  • u – integer; the tail of an arc.

  • v – integer; the head of an arc.

EXAMPLES:

On the CGraph level, this always produces an error, as there are no vertices:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraph
sage: G = CGraph()
sage: G.del_all_arcs(0,1)
Traceback (most recent call last):

has_arc(u, v)[source]#

Check if the arc (u, v) is in this graph.

INPUT:

  • u – integer; the tail of an arc

  • v – integer; the head of an arc

OUTPUT:

  • Print a Not Implemented! message. This method is not implemented at the CGraph level. A child class should provide a suitable implementation.

EXAMPLES:

On the CGraph this always returns False:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraph
sage: G = CGraph()
sage: G.has_arc(0, 1)
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraph
>>> G = CGraph()
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(0), Integer(1))
False

It works once has_arc_unsafe is implemented:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
sage: G = DenseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc(0, 1)
sage: G.has_arc(1, 0)
False
sage: G.has_arc(0, 1)
True

sage: G = SparseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc_label(0,1)
sage: G.has_arc(1,0)
False
sage: G.has_arc(0,1)
True

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph

>>> G.has_arc(Integer(1),Integer(0))
False
>>> G.has_arc(Integer(0),Integer(1))
True
has_arc_label(u, v, l)[source]#

Indicates whether there is an arc (u, v) with label l.

INPUT:

  • u, v – non-negative integers, must be in self

  • l – a positive integer label, or zero for no label

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: G = SparseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc_label(0,1,0)
sage: G.add_arc_label(0,1,1)
sage: G.add_arc_label(0,1,2)
sage: G.add_arc_label(0,1,2)
sage: G.has_arc_label(0,1,1)

sage: G.has_arc_label(0,1,3)

>>> from sage.all import *

>>> G.has_arc_label(Integer(0),Integer(1),Integer(1))
True
>>> G.has_arc_label(Integer(0),Integer(1),Integer(2))
True
>>> G.has_arc_label(Integer(0),Integer(1),Integer(3))
False
has_vertex(n)[source]#

Determine whether the vertex n is in self.

This method is different from check_vertex(). The current method returns a boolean to signify whether or not n is a vertex of this graph. On the other hand, check_vertex() raises an error if n is not a vertex of this graph.

INPUT:

  • n – a nonnegative integer representing a vertex

OUTPUT:

  • True if n is a vertex of this graph; False otherwise.

See also

  • check_vertex() – raise an error if this graph does not contain a specific vertex.

EXAMPLES:

Upon initialization, a SparseGraph or DenseGraph has the first nverts vertices:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
sage: S = SparseGraph(nverts=10, expected_degree=3, extra_vertices=10)
sage: S.has_vertex(6)
True
sage: S.has_vertex(12)
False
sage: S.has_vertex(24)
False
sage: S.has_vertex(-19)
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph import SparseGraph
>>> S = SparseGraph(nverts=Integer(10), expected_degree=Integer(3), extra_vertices=Integer(10))
>>> S.has_vertex(Integer(6))
True
>>> S.has_vertex(Integer(12))
False
>>> S.has_vertex(Integer(24))
False
>>> S.has_vertex(-Integer(19))
False

sage: from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
sage: D = DenseGraph(nverts=10, extra_vertices=10)
sage: D.has_vertex(6)
True
sage: D.has_vertex(12)
False
sage: D.has_vertex(24)

sage: D.has_vertex(-19)
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
>>> D = DenseGraph(nverts=Integer(10), extra_vertices=Integer(10))
>>> D.has_vertex(Integer(6))
True
>>> D.has_vertex(Integer(12))
False
>>> D.has_vertex(Integer(24))
False
>>> D.has_vertex(-Integer(19))
False
in_neighbors(v)[source]#

Return the list of in-neighbors of the vertex v.

INPUT:

  • v – integer representing a vertex of this graph

OUTPUT:

  • Raise NotImplementedError. This method is not implemented at the CGraph level. A child class should provide a suitable implementation.

Note

Due to the implementation of SparseGraph, this method is much more expensive than out_neighbors_unsafe for SparseGraph’s.

EXAMPLES:

On the CGraph level, this always produces an error, as there are no vertices:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraph
sage: G = CGraph()
sage: G.in_neighbors(0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (0) is not a vertex of the graph

>>> from sage.all import *

>>> G = CGraph()
>>> G.in_neighbors(Integer(0))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
LookupError: vertex (0) is not a vertex of the graph

It works, once there are vertices and out_neighbors_unsafe() is implemented:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.dense_graph import DenseGraph
sage: G = DenseGraph(5)
sage: G.add_arc(0, 1)
sage: G.add_arc(3, 1)

out_neighbors(u)[source]#

Return the list of out-neighbors of the vertex u.

INPUT:

realloc(total)[source]#

Reallocate the number of vertices to use, without actually adding any.

INPUT:

  • total – integer; the total size to make the array of vertices

OUTPUT:

  • Raise a NotImplementedError. This method is not implemented in this base class. A child class should provide a suitable implementation.

See also

  • realloc – a realloc implementation for sparse graphs.

class sage.graphs.base.c_graph.CGraphBackend[source]#

Bases: GenericGraphBackend

Base class for sparse and dense graph backends.

sage: from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraphBackend

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraphBackend

This class is extended by SparseGraphBackend and DenseGraphBackend, which are fully functional backends. This class is mainly just for vertex functions, which are the same for both. A CGraphBackend will not work on its own:

sage: from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraphBackend
sage: CGB = CGraphBackend()
sage: CGB.degree(0, True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
NotImplementedError: a derived class must return ``self._cg``

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.graphs.base.c_graph import CGraphBackend
>>> CGB = CGraphBackend()
>>> CGB.degree(Integer(0), True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
NotImplementedError: a derived class must return ``self._cg``

The appropriate way to use these backends is via Sage graphs:

sage: G = Graph(30)
sage: G.add_edges([(0,1), (0,3), (4,5), (9, 23)])
sage: G.edges(sort=True, labels=False)
[(0, 1), (0, 3), (4, 5), (9, 23)]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = Graph(Integer(30))
>>> G.add_edges([(Integer(0),Integer(1)), (Integer(0),Integer(3)), (Integer(4),Integer(5)), (Integer(9), Integer(23))])
>>> G.edges(sort=True, labels=False)
[(0, 1), (0, 3), (4, 5), (9, 23)]

This class handles the labels of vertices and edges. For vertices it uses two dictionaries vertex_labels and vertex_ints. They are just opposite of each other: vertex_ints makes a translation from label to integers (that are internally used) and vertex_labels make the translation from internally used integers to actual labels. This class tries hard to avoid translation if possible. This will work only if the graph is built on integers from \(0\) to \(n-1\) and the vertices are basically added in increasing order.

add_edge(u, v, l, directed)[source]#

Add the edge (u,v) to self.

INPUT:

  • u, v – the vertices of the edge

  • l – the edge label

  • directed – if False, also add (v,u)

Note

The input l is ignored if the backend does not support labels.

add_edges(edges, directed, remove_loops=False)[source]#

Add edges from a list.

INPUT:

bidirectional_dijkstra(x, y, weight_function=None, distance_flag=False)[source]#

Return the shortest path or distance from x to y using a bidirectional version of Dijkstra’s algorithm.

INPUT:

  • x – the starting vertex in the shortest path from x to y

  • y – the end vertex in the shortest path from x to y

  • weight_function – function (default: None); a function that inputs an edge (u, v, l) and outputs its weight. If None, we use the edge label l as a weight, if l is not None, else 1 as a weight.

  • distance_flag – boolean (default: False); when set to True, the shortest path distance from x to y is returned instead of the path.

OUTPUT:

  • A list of vertices in the shortest path from x to y or distance from x to y is returned depending upon the value of parameter distance_flag

bidirectional_dijkstra_special(x, y, weight_function=None, exclude_vertices=None, exclude_edges=None, include_vertices=None, distance_flag=False, reduced_weight=None)[source]#

Return the shortest path or distance from x to y using a bidirectional version of Dijkstra’s algorithm.

This method is an extension of bidirectional_dijkstra() method enabling to exclude vertices and/or edges from the search for the shortest path between x and y.

This method also has include_vertices option enabling to include the vertices which will be used to search for the shortest path between x and y.

INPUT:

  • x – the starting vertex in the shortest path from x to y

  • y – the end vertex in the shortest path from x to y

  • exclude_vertices – iterable container (default: None); iterable of vertices to exclude from the graph while calculating the shortest path from x to y

  • exclude_edges – iterable container (default: None); iterable of edges to exclude from the graph while calculating the shortest path from x to y

  • include_vertices – iterable container (default: None); iterable of vertices to consider in the graph while calculating the shortest path from x to y

  • weight_function – function (default: None); a function that inputs an edge (u, v, l) and outputs its weight. If None, we use the edge label l as a weight, if l is not None, else 1 as a weight.

  • distance_flag – boolean (default: False); when set to True, the shortest path distance from x to y is returned instead of the path.

  • reduced_weight – dictionary (default: None); a dictionary that takes as input an edge (u, v) and outputs its reduced weight.

OUTPUT:

  • A list of vertices in the shortest path from x to y or distance from x to y is returned depending upon the value of parameter distance_flag

Return a breadth-first search from vertex v.

INPUT:

  • v – a vertex from which to start the breadth-first search

  • reverse – boolean (default: False); this is only relevant to digraphs. If this is a digraph, consider the reversed graph in which the out-neighbors become the in-neighbors and vice versa.

  • ignore_direction – boolean (default: False); this is only relevant to digraphs. If this is a digraph, ignore all orientations and consider the graph as undirected.

  • edges – boolean (default: False); whether to return the edges of the BFS tree in the order of visit or the vertices (default). Edges are directed in root to leaf orientation of the tree.

    Note that parameters edges and report_distance cannot be True simultaneously.

is_directed_acyclic(certificate=False)[source]#

Check whether the graph is both directed and acyclic (possibly with a certificate)

INPUT:

  • certificate – boolean (default: False); whether to return a certificate

OUTPUT:

When certificate=False, returns a boolean value. When certificate=True :

  • If the graph is acyclic, returns a pair (True, ordering) where ordering is a list of the vertices such that u appears before v in ordering if u, v is an edge.

  • Else, returns a pair (False, cycle) where cycle is a list of vertices representing a circuit in the graph.

ALGORITHM:

We pick a vertex at random, think hard and find out that if we are to remove the vertex from the graph we must remove all of its out-neighbors in the first place. So we put all of its out-neighbours in a stack, and repeat the same procedure with the vertex on top of the stack (when a vertex on top of the stack has no out-neighbors, we remove it immediately). Of course, for each vertex we only add its outneighbors to the end of the stack once : if for some reason the previous algorithm leads us to do it twice, it means we have found a circuit.

We keep track of the vertices whose out-neighborhood has been added to the stack once with a variable named tried.

There is no reason why the graph should be empty at the end of this procedure, so we run it again on the remaining vertices until none are left or a circuit is found.

Note

The graph is assumed to be directed. An exception is raised if it is not.

EXAMPLES:

At first, the following graph is acyclic:

sage: D = DiGraph({ 0:[1,2,3], 4:[2,5], 1:[8], 2:[7], 3:[7], 5:[6,7], 7:[8], 6:[9], 8:[10], 9:[10] })
sage: D.plot(layout='circular').show()                                      # needs sage.plot
sage: D.is_directed_acyclic()
True

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> D = DiGraph({ Integer(0):[Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(3)], Integer(4):[Integer(2),Integer(5)], Integer(1):[Integer(8)], Integer(2):[Integer(7)], Integer(3):[Integer(7)], Integer(5):[Integer(6),Integer(7)], Integer(7):[Integer(8)], Integer(6):[Integer(9)], Integer(8):[Integer(10)], Integer(9):[Integer(10)] })
>>> D.plot(layout='circular').show()                                      # needs sage.plot
>>> D.is_directed_acyclic()
True

Adding an edge from \(9\) to \(7\) does not change it:

sage: D.add_edge(9,7)
sage: D.is_directed_acyclic()
True

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> D.add_edge(Integer(9),Integer(7))
>>> D.is_directed_acyclic()
True

We can obtain as a proof an ordering of the vertices such that \(u\) appears before \(v\) if \(uv\) is an edge of the graph:

sage: D.is_directed_acyclic(certificate = True)
(True, [4, 5, 6, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10])

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> D.is_directed_acyclic(certificate = True)
(True, [4, 5, 6, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10])

Adding an edge from 7 to 4, though, makes a difference:

sage: D.add_edge(7,4)
sage: D.is_directed_acyclic()
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> D.add_edge(Integer(7),Integer(4))
>>> D.is_directed_acyclic()
False

Indeed, it creates a circuit \(7, 4, 5\):

sage: D.is_directed_acyclic(certificate = True)
(False, [7, 4, 5])

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> D.is_directed_acyclic(certificate = True)
(False, [7, 4, 5])

Multiple edges are removed, if the other graph does not allow them:

Labels are removed, if the other graph does not allow them:

sage: H = sage.graphs.base.dense_graph.DenseGraphBackend(0, directed=False)
sage: G.subgraph_given_vertices(H, [0,1,2])
sage: list(H.iterator_edges(list(range(4)), True))

[(0, 1, None), (1, 2, None)]

A directed subgraph of an undirected graph is taken by initializing with edges in both directions:

sage: G = sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph.SparseGraphBackend(4, directed=True)
sage: G.loops(True)
sage: G.multiple_edges(True)
sage: G.add_edges([[0,1,'a'], [1,2,'b'], [2,3,'c'], [0,1,'d'], [2,2,'e']], False)
sage: H = sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph.SparseGraphBackend(0, directed=True)
sage: H.multiple_edges(True)
sage: H.loops(True)
sage: G.subgraph_given_vertices(H, [0,1,2])
sage: list(H.iterator_out_edges(list(range(4)), True))
[(0, 1, 'a'),
 (0, 1, 'd'),
 (1, 0, 'a'),
 (1, 0, 'd'),
 (1, 2, 'b'),
 (2, 1, 'b'),
 (2, 2, 'e')]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph.SparseGraphBackend(Integer(4), directed=True)
>>> G.loops(True)
>>> G.multiple_edges(True)
>>> G.add_edges([[Integer(0),Integer(1),'a'], [Integer(1),Integer(2),'b'], [Integer(2),Integer(3),'c'], [Integer(0),Integer(1),'d'], [Integer(2),Integer(2),'e']], False)

>>> H.multiple_edges(True)
>>> H.loops(True)
>>> G.subgraph_given_vertices(H, [Integer(0),Integer(1),Integer(2)])
>>> list(H.iterator_out_edges(list(range(Integer(4))), True))
[(0, 1, 'a'),
 (0, 1, 'd'),
 (1, 0, 'a'),
 (1, 0, 'd'),

 (2, 2, 'e')]

An undirected subgraph of a directeed graph is not defined:

sage: G.add_edges([[0,1,'a'], [1,2,'b'], [2,3,'c']], False)
sage: H = sage.graphs.base.sparse_graph.SparseGraphBackend(0, directed=False)

class sage.graphs.base.c_graph.Search_iterator[source]#

Bases: object

An iterator for traversing a (di)graph.

This class is commonly used to perform a depth-first or breadth-first search. The class does not build all at once in memory the whole list of visited vertices. The class maintains the following variables:

  • graph – a graph whose vertices are to be iterated over.

  • direction – integer; this determines the position at which vertices to be visited are removed from the list. For breadth-first search (BFS), element removal follow a first-in first-out (FIFO) protocol, as signified by the value direction=0. We use a queue to maintain the list of vertices to visit in this case. For depth-first search (DFS), element removal follow a last-in first-out (LIFO) protocol, as signified by the value direction=-1. In this case, we use a stack to maintain the list of vertices to visit.

  • stack – a list of vertices to visit, used only when direction=-1

  • queue – a queue of vertices to visit, used only when direction=0

  • seen – a list of vertices that are already visited

  • test_out – boolean; whether we want to consider the out-neighbors of the graph to be traversed. For undirected graphs, we consider both the in- and out-neighbors. However, for digraphs we only traverse along out-neighbors.

  • test_in – boolean; whether we want to consider the in-neighbors of the graph to be traversed. For undirected graphs, we consider both the in- and out-neighbors.

EXAMPLES:

sage: g = graphs.PetersenGraph()
sage: list(g.breadth_first_search(0))
[0, 1, 4, 5, 2, 6, 3, 9, 7, 8]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.PetersenGraph()
>>> list(g.breadth_first_search(Integer(0)))
[0, 1, 4, 5, 2, 6, 3, 9, 7, 8]
