Method Details

hasCycle

public static <N> boolean hasCycle(Graph<N> graph)

Returns true if graph has at least one cycle. A cycle is defined as a non-empty subset of edges in a graph arranged to form a path (a sequence of adjacent outgoing edges) starting and ending with the same node.

This method will detect any non-empty cycle, including self-loops (a cycle of length 1).

hasCycle

public static boolean hasCycle(Network<?,?> network)

Returns true if network has at least one cycle. A cycle is defined as a non-empty subset of edges in a graph arranged to form a path (a sequence of adjacent outgoing edges) starting and ending with the same node.

This method will detect any non-empty cycle, including self-loops (a cycle of length 1).

transitiveClosure

public static <N> ImmutableGraph<N> transitiveClosure(Graph<N> graph)

Returns the transitive closure of graph. The transitive closure of a graph is another graph with an edge connecting node A to node B if node B is reachable from node A.

This is a "snapshot" based on the current topology of graph, rather than a live view of the transitive closure of graph. In other words, the returned Graph will not be updated after modifications to graph.

Since:

33.1.0 (present with return type Graph since 20.0)

reachableNodes

public static <N> ImmutableSet<N> reachableNodes(Graph<N> graph,
 N node)

Returns the set of nodes that are reachable from node. Node B is defined as reachable from node A if there exists a path (a sequence of adjacent outgoing edges) starting at node A and ending at node B. Note that a node is always reachable from itself via a zero-length path.

This is a "snapshot" based on the current topology of graph, rather than a live view of the set of nodes reachable from node. In other words, the returned Set will not be updated after modifications to graph.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if node is not present in graph

Since:

33.1.0 (present with return type Set since 20.0)

transpose

public static <N> Graph<N> transpose(Graph<N> graph)

Returns a view of graph with the direction (if any) of every edge reversed. All other properties remain intact, and further updates to graph will be reflected in the view.

transpose

public static <N,
V> ValueGraph<N,V> transpose(ValueGraph<N,V> graph)

Returns a view of graph with the direction (if any) of every edge reversed. All other properties remain intact, and further updates to graph will be reflected in the view.

transpose

public static <N,
E> Network<N,E> transpose(Network<N,E> network)

Returns a view of network with the direction (if any) of every edge reversed. All other properties remain intact, and further updates to network will be reflected in the view.

inducedSubgraph

public static <N> MutableGraph<N> inducedSubgraph(Graph<N> graph,
 Iterable<? extends N> nodes)

Returns the subgraph of graph induced by nodes. This subgraph is a new graph that contains all of the nodes in nodes, and all of the edges from graph for which both nodes are contained by nodes.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any element in nodes is not a node in the graph

inducedSubgraph

public static <N,
V> MutableValueGraph<N,V> inducedSubgraph(ValueGraph<N,V> graph,
 Iterable<? extends N> nodes)

Returns the subgraph of graph induced by nodes. This subgraph is a new graph that contains all of the nodes in nodes, and all of the edges (and associated edge values) from graph for which both nodes are contained by nodes.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any element in nodes is not a node in the graph

inducedSubgraph

public static <N,
E> MutableNetwork<N,E> inducedSubgraph(Network<N,E> network,
 Iterable<? extends N> nodes)

Returns the subgraph of network induced by nodes. This subgraph is a new graph that contains all of the nodes in nodes, and all of the edges from network for which the incident nodes are both contained by nodes.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any element in nodes is not a node in the graph

copyOf

public static <N> MutableGraph<N> copyOf(Graph<N> graph)

Creates a mutable copy of graph with the same nodes and edges.

copyOf

public static <N,
V> MutableValueGraph<N,V> copyOf(ValueGraph<N,V> graph)

Creates a mutable copy of graph with the same nodes, edges, and edge values.

copyOf

public static <N,
E> MutableNetwork<N,E> copyOf(Network<N,E> network)

Creates a mutable copy of network with the same nodes and edges.
