Yargraph

Yet another Ruby graphing library. Implements some graph/vertex/edge related algorithms. Currently operates only on undirected graphs.

  • find all Hamiltonian cycles in a graph using an exponential time algorithm (hamiltonian_cycles, dynamic programming method of Bellman, Held, and Karp).
  • find edges that are a part of all Hamiltonian cycles (edges_in_all_hamiltonian_cycles, requires exponential time so may be very slow)
  • find only some edges that are a part of all Hamiltonian cycles (some_edges_in_all_hamiltonian_cycles, faster but may not find all edges)

Soon to be implemented:

  • finding bridges (bridges, requires linear time using Schmidt's chain decompositions method)
  • determining 3-edge-connectivity and if 3-edge-connected (but not 4- or more), determine pairs of edges whose removal disconnects the graph (three_edge_connected?, three_edge_connections, algorithm runs in O(n^2))

Contributions are most welcome.
