GRAPH - DISCRETE STRUCTURE AND ALGORITHM

Graph Representation
The following two are the most commonly used representations of a
graph.
1. Adjacency Matrix
2. Adjacency List
Adjacency matrix Representation
Adjacency matrix, also called bit matrix or Boolean matrix. If an edge exists
between two nodes it stores true (represented by 1) otherwise false (represented
by 0).
True or 1 if edge exist between I to j
v[i][j]
False or 0 otherwise

Example (Directed Graph)
Graph Adjacency matrix Representation

In above diagram A to B edge exist so in the matrix A to B is 1. A to C edge does not exist so in
the matrix A to C is 0.
Points to Remember-
In case of directed Graph, the sum of matrix is always equal to number of edges|E| or sum of in-degree of each vertex.
In above diagram
Number of edges= 7
Sum of matrix = 7
Number of edges = Sum of Matrix
1

Points to Remember-
In case of undirected Graph, the sum of matrix is always equal to twice the number of edges i.e. 2|E| or sum of degree of
each vertex.
In above diagram , Number of edges= 9,
Sum of matrix= 18
Sum of matrix=2|E|

Example (Weighted Directed Graph)
Graph Weight matrix Representation
In above diagram A to B edge exist so in the matrix A to B is 2. A to C edge does not exist so in the matrix A to C is 0.

Example (Weighted Undirected Graph)

Disadvantage of Adjacency matrix
No. of entries for directed graph= e
No. of entries for undirected graph= 2e
where e= edges of graph
total entries in matrix= n X n
where n=no. of vertex
Memory wasted for directed graph=n2 -e
Memory wasted for undirected graph= n2 -2e

Advantage of adjacency matrix
• Used efficiently for more entries
• Traversal or accessing of any node is easy

• Adjacency List:
An array of lists is used. The size of the array is equal to the number of
vertices. Let the array be an array[]. An entry array[i] represents the
list of vertices adjacent to the ith vertex.
• This representation can also be used to represent a weighted graph.
The weights of edges can be represented as lists of pairs.

GRAPH - DISCRETE STRUCTURE AND ALGORITHM

Disadvantage of adjacency list
• Checking the existence of an edge between two vertices i.e. i and e ,
is time consuming
• Calculations of the degree of the vertex is also time consuming

traversal algorithms
The graph has two types of traversal algorithms. These are called
• Breadth First Search (BFS)
• Depth First Search (DFS)

Traversal algorithms: Breadth First Search (BFS)
During the execution of our algorithms, each node N of G will be one of
three states, called the status of N, as follows:
STATUS=1: (Ready state) The initial state of the node N
STATUS =2: (Waiting state) The node N is on the Queue ,waiting to be processed
STATUS=3: (Processed state) The Node n has been processed

This algorithm executes a BFS on a Graph G beginning at a starting node A
Step1: Initialize all nodes to the ready state (STATUS=1).
Step 2 : Put the starting node A in QUEUE and change its status to the
waiting state (STATUS=2).
Step3: Repeat steps 4 & 5 until QUEUE is empty:
Step4: Remove the front node N of QUEUE . Process N and change
the status of N to the processed state (STATUS=3).
Step5: Add to the rear of QUEUE all the neighbors of N
that are in the steady state (STATUS=1) and change their
status to the waiting state (STATUS=2).
[End of Step3 loop]
Step6: Exit

Step5: Push on to STACK all the neighbors of N that are in the
steady state (STATUS=1) and change their status to the

Step6: Exit

Spanning Tree
A spanning tree is a subset of Graph G, which has all the vertices
covered with minimum possible number of edges. Hence, a spanning
tree does not have cycles and it cannot be disconnected.

We found three spanning trees off one complete graph. A complete
undirected graph can have maximum n(n-2) number of spanning trees,
where n is the number of nodes. In the above addressed example, n is
3, hence 3(3−2) = 3 spanning trees are possible.

General Properties of Spanning Tree
We now understand that one graph can have more than one spanning tree.
Following are a few properties of the spanning tree connected to graph G −
• A connected graph G can have more than one spanning tree.
• All possible spanning trees of graph G, have the same number of edges and
vertices.
• The spanning tree does not have any cycle (loops).
• Removing one edge from the spanning tree will make the graph disconnected, i.e.
the spanning tree is minimally connected.

Minimum Spanning Tree (MST)
In a weighted graph, a minimum spanning tree is a spanning tree that has
minimum weight than all other spanning trees of the same graph. In real-
world situations, this weight can be measured as distance, congestion, traffic
load or any arbitrary value denoted to the edges.
We shall learn about two most important spanning tree algorithms here −
Kruskal's Algorithm
Prim's Algorithm
Both are greedy algorithms.

Prim’s Minimum Spanning Tree and Kruskal’s
algorithm fails for directed graphs
• Prim’s algorithm assumes that all vertices are connected. But in a
directed graph, every node is not reachable from every other node.
So, Prim’s algorithm fails due to this reason.
As it is visible in the graph, no node is reachable from node 4. Directed
graphs fail the requirement that all vertices are connected.

Why Kruskal’s Algorithm fails for directed graph ?
• In Kruskal’s algorithm, In each step, it is checked that if the edges form a cycle
with the spanning-tree formed so far. But Kruskal’s algorithm fails to detect the
cycles in a directed graph as there are cases when there is no cycle between
the vertices but Kruskal’s Algorithm assumes it to cycle and don’t take consider
some edges due to which Kruskal’s Algorithm fails for directed graph.
For example:

Kruskal’s algorithm
Step1: set minimum spanning tree (MST) initially empty.
A=Ø
Step2: For each vertex V Ɛ V(G)
create (V) no. of tree where tree contain all vertex no edge.
Step3: Set the edges into ascending order according to their weights
and select the edge which has minimum weight.
Step4: if that forms cycles rejected it otherwise add it.
Step5: repeat until the single tree is formed.
Step 6: return MST.

Prims Algorithm
For a Graph G={V,E}
Assume S= Set of vertices in MST
A= Set of edges in MST
Step1: select any vertex ‘r’ and set S={r} and also set A= {Ø}
Step2: Find the smallest weight edge such that one end point in S and other in
{ V-S}.
Step3: Now add this edge into the set A and set another point into set S
Step 4:IF {V-S} =Ø then
Stop
and output is return i.e. MST
otherwise goto Step2.

Single Source Shortest path
For a given Graph G= (V, E), we want to find a shortest path from a give
source vetex S Ɛ V o every vertex v Ɛ V . A single source shortest path
may be computed with the following algorithms.
1. Dijkstra's Algorithm

Dijkstra's Algorithm
Dijakstra’s algo solves the single source shortest path problem on a
weighted , directed graph G=(V,E) for the case in which all edge
weights are non negative.
The Dijaksta’s algorithm uses a greedy strategies i.e. it always select
the lightest or closest vertex.

Transitive closure of a graph
• Given a directed graph, find out if a vertex j is reachable from another
vertex i for all vertex pairs (i, j) in the given graph. Here reachable
mean that there is a path from vertex i to j. The reach-ability matrix is
called the transitive closure of a graph.

Floyd Warshall Algorithm, find the shortest
path distance between every pair of vertices

Floyd Warshall Algorithm
Step1: We initialize the solution matrix same as the input graph matrix .
Step2: Then we update the solution matrix by considering all vertices as an
intermediate vertex. The idea is to one by one pick all vertices and updates
all shortest paths which include the picked vertex as an intermediate vertex
in the shortest path.
When we pick vertex number k as an intermediate vertex, we already have
considered vertices {0, 1, 2, .. k-1} as intermediate vertices. For every pair (i,
j) of the source and destination vertices respectively.
There are two possible cases:
Cae1:k is not an intermediate vertex in shortest path from i to j. We keep
the value of dist[i][j] as it is.
Case2: k is an intermediate vertex in shortest path from i to j. We update the
value of dist[i][j] as dist[i][k] + dist[k][j] if dist[i][j] > dist[i][k] + dist[k][j]
