list manipulation - Computing the equivalence classes of the symmetric transitive closure of a relation


I have a list of pairs, for example:


pairs={{13, 10}, {12, 14}, {10, 36}, {35, 11}, {3, 5}, {1, 6},

{20, 24}, {21, 22}, {33, 7}, {31, 8}, {31, 27}, {32, 25}, 
{21, 35}, {34, 19}, {18, 15}, {14, 16}, {9, 5}, {4, 7}, 
{1, 13}, {15, 2}, {6, 36}, {4, 34}, {8, 2}, {9, 3}, {25, 20},
{19, 26}, {22, 11}, {23, 12}, {32, 28}, {30, 33}, {23, 16},
{24, 17}, {29, 27}, {26, 30}, {17, 28}, {18, 29}};

pairs can be seen as the definition of a relation $R$. $x$ and $y$ satisfy the relation if and only if {x,y} $\in$ pairs. I need to compute the equivalence classes of the symmetric transitive closure of $R$.


In other words, I need to compute a list eqvclss. The elements of eqvclss are lists themselves. For example, 13, 10, 36, 6, 1, ... should all be in the same list in eqvclss. (If you understand that, then I explained the question properly; if you don't, say so in the comments so I can try to improve).

ConnectedComponents



Using Daniel Lichtblau's answer to a related question


ConnectedComponents[pairs] //Sort /@ # & //Sort (* thanks: CarlWoll *)


{{3, 5, 9},
{11, 21, 22, 35},
{12, 14, 16, 23},
{1, 6, 10, 13, 36},
{17, 20, 24, 25, 28, 32},
{2, 8, 15, 18, 27, 29, 31},

{4, 7, 19, 26, 30, 33, 34}}



In versions prior to 10.3 use


 ConnectedComponents[Graph[UndirectedEdge @@@ pairs]] //Sort /@ # & //Sort

MatrixPower


Implementing transitive closure using MatrixPower:


m = Max@pairs;

(*the adjacency matrix of atomic elements in pairs:*)

SparseArray[pairs ~Append~ {i_, i_} -> 1, {m, m}];

(*symmetrize the adjacency matrix:*)
% + %\[Transpose] // Sign;

(*find the transitive closure:*)
Sign @ MatrixPower[N@%, m];

(*eliminate duplicate rows,and extract the atomic elements of pairs in each row:*)
Select[DeleteDuplicates @ Normal @ %, Tr@# > 1 &];

Join @@ Position[#, 1] & /@ %;

(*organize:*)
Sort[Sort /@ %]


{{3, 5, 9},
{11, 21, 22, 35},
{12, 14, 16, 23},
{1, 6, 10, 13, 36},

{17, 20, 24, 25, 28, 32},
{2, 8, 15, 18, 27, 29, 31},
{4, 7, 19, 26, 30, 33, 34}}

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

How to thread a list

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
