Simple graphs #

This module defines simple graphs on a vertex type V as an irreflexive symmetric relation.

There is a basic API for locally finite graphs and for graphs with finitely many vertices.

Main definitions #

simple_graph is a structure for symmetric, irreflexive relations
neighbor_set is the set of vertices adjacent to a given vertex
neighbor_finset is the finset of vertices adjacent to a given vertex, if neighbor_set is finite
incidence_set is the set of edges containing a given vertex
incidence_finset is the finset of edges containing a given vertex, if incidence_set is finite

Implementation notes #

A locally finite graph is one with instances ∀ v, fintype (G.neighbor_set v).
Given instances decidable_rel G.adj and fintype V, then the graph is locally finite, too.

Naming Conventions #

If the vertex type of a graph is finite, we refer to its cardinality as card_verts.

TODO: This is the simplest notion of an unoriented graph. This should eventually fit into a more complete combinatorics hierarchy which includes multigraphs and directed graphs. We begin with simple graphs in order to start learning what the combinatorics hierarchy should look like.

TODO: Part of this would include defining, for example, subgraphs of a simple graph.

A simple graph is an irreflexive symmetric relation adj on a vertex type V. The relation describes which pairs of vertices are adjacent. There is exactly one edge for every pair of adjacent edges; see simple_graph.edge_set for the corresponding edge set.
