This function implements the Goldberg-Tarjan algorithm for calculating value of the maximum flow in a directed or undirected graph. The algorithm was given in Andrew V. Goldberg, Robert E. Tarjan: A New Approach to the Maximum-Flow Problem, Journal of the ACM, 35(4), 921-940, 1988.
The input of the function is a graph, a vector of real numbers giving the capacity of the edges and two vertices of the graph, the source and the target. A flow is a function assigning positive real numbers to the edges and satisfying two requirements: (1) the flow value is less than the capacity of the edge and (2) at each vertex except the source and the target, the incoming flow (i.e. the sum of the flow on the incoming edges) is the same as the outgoing flow (i.e. the sum of the flow on the outgoing edges). The value of the flow is the incoming flow at the target vertex. The maximum flow is the flow with the maximum value.
Arguments:
|
The input graph, either directed or undirected. |
|
Pointer to a real number, the value of the maximum will be placed here, unless it is a null pointer. |
|
If not a null pointer, then it must be a pointer to an
initialized vector. The vector will be resized, and the flow
on each edge will be placed in it, in the order of the edge
ids. For undirected graphs this argument is bit trickier,
since for these the flow direction is not predetermined by
the edge direction. For these graphs the elements of the
|
|
A null pointer or a pointer to an initialized vector. If not a null pointer, then the minimum cut corresponding to the maximum flow is stored here, i.e. all edge ids that are part of the minimum cut are stored in the vector. |
|
A null pointer or a pointer to an initialized vector. If not a null pointer, then the first partition of the minimum cut that corresponds to the maximum flow will be placed here. The first partition is always the one that contains the source vertex. |
|
A null pointer or a pointer to an initialized vector. If not a null pointer, then the second partition of the minimum cut that corresponds to the maximum flow will be placed here. The second partition is always the one that contains the target vertex. |
|
The id of the source vertex. |
|
The id of the target vertex. |
|
Vector containing the capacity of the edges. If NULL, then every edge is considered to have capacity 1.0. |
|
Counts of the number of different operations preformed by the algorithm are stored here. |
Returns:
Error code. |
Time complexity: O(|V|^3). In practice it is much faster, but i
cannot prove a better lower bound for the data structure i've
used. In fact, this implementation runs much faster than the
hi_pr implementation discussed in
B. V. Cherkassky and A. V. Goldberg: On implementing the
push-relabel method for the maximum flow problem, (Algorithmica,
19:390--410, 1997) on all the graph classes i've tried.

This function implements the Goldberg-Tarjan algorithm for calculating value of the maximum flow in a directed or undirected graph. The algorithm was given in Andrew V. Goldberg, Robert E. Tarjan: A New Approach to the Maximum-Flow Problem, Journal of the ACM, 35(4), 921-940, 1988.
The input of the function is a graph, a vector of real numbers giving the capacity of the edges and two vertices of the graph, the source and the target. A flow is a function assigning positive real numbers to the edges and satisfying two requirements: (1) the flow value is less than the capacity of the edge and (2) at each vertex except the source and the target, the incoming flow (i.e. the sum of the flow on the incoming edges) is the same as the outgoing flow (i.e. the sum of the flow on the outgoing edges). The value of the flow is the incoming flow at the target vertex. The maximum flow is the flow with the maximum value.
According to a theorem by Ford and Fulkerson
(L. R. Ford Jr. and D. R. Fulkerson. Maximal flow through a
network. Canadian J. Math., 8:399-404, 1956.) the maximum flow
between two vertices is the same as the
minimum cut between them (also called the minimum s-t cut). So igraph_st_mincut_value() gives the same result in all cases as igraph_maxflow_value().
Note that the value of the maximum flow is the same as the minimum cut in the graph.

A flowgraph is a directed graph with a distinguished start (or root) vertex r, such that for any vertex v, there is a path from r to v. A vertex v dominates another vertex w (not equal to v), if every path from r to w contains v. Vertex v is the immediate dominator or w, v=idom(w), if v dominates w and every other dominator of w dominates v. The edges {(idom(w), w)| w is not r} form a directed tree, rooted at r, called the dominator tree of the graph. Vertex v dominates vertex w if and only if v is an ancestor of w in the dominator tree.
This function implements the Lengauer-Tarjan algorithm to construct the dominator tree of a directed graph. For details please see Thomas Lengauer, Robert Endre Tarjan: A fast algorithm for finding dominators in a flowgraph, ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS) I/1, 121--141, 1979.

A directed graph. If it is not a flowgraph, and it
contains some vertices not reachable from the root vertex,
then these vertices will be collected in the |

The id of the root (or source) vertex, this will be the root of the tree. |
|
Pointer to an initialized vector or a null pointer. If not a null pointer, then the immediate dominator of each vertex will be stored here. For vertices that are not reachable from the root, NaN is stored here. For the root vertex itself, -1 is added. |
|
Pointer to an uninitialized igraph_t, or NULL. If not a null pointer, then the dominator tree is returned here. The graph contains the vertices that are unreachable from the root (if any), these will be isolates. |

Pointer to an initialized vector object, or NULL. If not NULL, then the ids of the vertices that are unreachable from the root vertex (and thus not part of the dominator tree) are stored here. |

Returns:

Time complexity: very close to O(|E|+|V|), linear in the number of edges and vertices. More precisely, it is O(|V|+|E|alpha(|E|,|V|)), where alpha(|E|,|V|) is a functional inverse of Ackermann's function.

int igraph_st_mincut_value(const igraph_t *graph, igraph_real_t *value,
igraph_integer_t source, igraph_integer_t target,
const igraph_vector_t *capacity);
The minimum s-t cut in a weighted (=valued) graph is the
total minimum edge weight needed to remove from the graph to
eliminate all paths from a given vertex (source) to
another vertex (target). Directed paths are considered in
directed graphs, and undirected paths in undirected graphs.
The minimum s-t cut between two vertices is known to be same
as the maximum flow between these two vertices. So this function
calls igraph_maxflow_value() to do the calculation.

The input graph. |
|
Pointer to a real variable, the result will be stored here. |
|
The id of the source vertex. |
|
The id of the target vertex. |
|
Pointer to the capacity vector, it should contain non-negative numbers and its length should be the same the the number of edges in the graph. It can be a null pointer, then every edge has unit capacity. |
Returns:

This function lists all edge cuts between two vertices, in a directed graph, with minimum total capacity. Possibly, multiple cuts may have the same total capacity, although there is often only one minimum cut in weighted graphs. It is recommended to supply integer-values capacities. Otherwise, not all minimum cuts may be detected because of numerical roundoff errors. The implemented algorithm is described in JS Provan and DR Shier: A Paradigm for listing (s,t)-cuts in graphs, Algorithmica 15, 351--372, 1996.

Pointer to a real number, the value of the minimum cut is stored here, unless it is a null pointer. |

An initialized pointer vector, the cuts are stored
here. It is a list of pointers to igraph_vector_t
objects. Each vector will contain the ids of the edges in

igraph_vector_t *partition,
igraph_vector_t *partition2,
igraph_vector_t *cut,
const igraph_vector_t *capacity);
This function calculates the minimum cut in a graph.
The minimum cut is the minimum set of edges which needs to be
removed to disconnect the graph. The minimum is calculated using
the weights (capacity) of the edges, so the cut with the minimum
total capacity is calculated.
For directed graphs an implementation based on calculating 2|V|-2 maximum flows is used. For undirected graphs we use the Stoer-Wagner algorithm, as described in M. Stoer and F. Wagner: A simple min-cut algorithm, Journal of the ACM, 44 585-591, 1997.
The first implementation of the actual cut calculation for undirected graphs was made by Gregory Benison, thanks Greg.
Arguments:
|
The input graph. |
|
Pointer to a float, the value of the cut will be stored here. |
|
Pointer to an initialized vector, the ids of the vertices in the first partition after separating the graph will be stored here. The vector will be resized as needed. This argument is ignored if it is a NULL pointer. |
|
Pointer to an initialized vector the ids of the vertices in the second partition will be stored here. The vector will be resized as needed. This argument is ignored if it is a NULL pointer. |
|
Pointer to an initialized vector, the ids of the edges in the cut will be stored here. This argument is ignored if it is a NULL pointer. |
|
A numeric vector giving the capacities of the edges. If a null pointer then all edges have unit capacity. |
Returns:

Time complexity: for directed graphs it is O(|V|^4), but see the
remarks at igraph_maxflow(). For undirected graphs it is
O(|V||E|+|V|^2 log|V|). |V| and |E| are the number of vertices and
edges respectively.

int igraph_mincut_value(const igraph_t *graph, igraph_real_t *res,
const igraph_vector_t *capacity);
The minimum edge cut in a graph is the total minimum weight of the edges needed to remove from the graph to make the graph not strongly connected. (If the original graph is not strongly connected then this is zero.) Note that in undirected graphs strong connectedness is the same as weak connectedness.
The minimum cut can be calculated with maximum flow techniques, although the current implementation does this only for directed graphs and a separate non-flow based implementation is used for undirected graphs. See Mechthild Stoer and Frank Wagner: A simple min-cut algorithm, Journal of the ACM 44 585--591, 1997. For directed graphs the maximum flow is calculated between a fixed vertex and all the other vertices in the graph and this is done in both directions. Then the minimum is taken to get the minimum cut.

int igraph_gomory_hu_tree(const igraph_t *graph, igraph_t *tree,
igraph_vector_t *flows, const igraph_vector_t *capacity);
The Gomory-Hu tree is a concise representation of the value of all the maximum flows (or minimum cuts) in a graph. The vertices of the tree correspond exactly to the vertices of the original graph in the same order. Edges of the Gomory-Hu tree are annotated by flow values. The value of the maximum flow (or minimum cut) between an arbitrary (u,v) vertex pair in the original graph is then given by the minimum flow value (i.e. edge annotation) along the shortest path between u and v in the Gomory-Hu tree.
This implementation uses Gusfield's algorithm to construct the Gomory-Hu tree. See the following paper for more details:
Gusfield D: Very simple methods for all pairs network flow analysis. SIAM J Comput 19(1):143-155, 1990.
Arguments:
|
The input graph. |
|
Pointer to an uninitialized graph; the result will be stored here. |
|
Pointer to an uninitialized vector; the flow values corresponding to each edge in the Gomory-Hu tree will be returned here. You may pass a NULL pointer here if you are not interested in the flow values. |
|
Vector containing the capacity of the edges. If NULL, then every edge is considered to have capacity 1.0. |
Returns:
Error code. |
Time complexity: O(|V|^4) since it performs a max-flow calculation between vertex zero and every other vertex and max-flow is O(|V|^3).

Cohesive blocking is a method of determining hierarchical subsets of graph vertices based on their structural cohesion (or vertex connectivity). For a given graph G, a subset of its vertices S is said to be maximally k-cohesive if there is no superset of S with vertex connectivity greater than or equal to k. Cohesive blocking is a process through which, given a k-cohesive set of vertices, maximally l-cohesive subsets are recursively identified with l>k. Thus a hiearchy of vertex subsets is found, whith the entire graph G at its root. See the following reference for details: J. Moody and D. R. White. Structural cohesion and embeddedness: A hierarchical concept of social groups. American Sociological Review, 68(1):103--127, Feb 2003.
This function implements cohesive blocking and calculates the complete cohesive block hierarchy of a graph.
