How do I "read out" the vertex names on this graph?


While working to self-answer FindCurvePath for lines (rather than points) using Graph functions I came upon a seemingly silly conundrum: how do I programmatically list the vertex names of a PathGraph-like-graph in order? For example I have:

How can I extract {9, 10, 1, 2, 4, ..., 41, 34, 33} from this?


I am using version 10.1.0 and I do not have FindHamiltonianPath as proposed by Jason. I suppose that is the canonical approach in recent versions.


Code:


Graph[{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 
22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41,
42, 43, 44}, {Null,
SparseArray[Automatic, {44, 44},
0, {1, {{0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35,
37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49, 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, 61, 63, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72,
74, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84,

86}, {{2}, {10}, {1}, {4}, {4}, {8}, {2}, {3}, {6}, {24}, {5}, {7}, {6}, {8}, \
{3}, {7}, {10}, {1}, {9}, {12}, {20}, {11}, {16}, {14}, {15}, {13}, {18}, {13}, \
{16}, {12}, {15}, {18}, {22}, {14}, {17}, {20}, {42}, {11}, {19}, {22}, {28}, {17}, \
{21}, {24}, {25}, {5}, {23}, {23}, {26}, {25}, {29}, {28}, {32}, {21}, {27}, {26}, \
{30}, {29}, {37}, {32}, {36}, {27}, {31}, {34}, {33}, {41}, {36}, {44}, {31}, {35}, \
{30}, {38}, {37}, {39}, {38}, {40}, {39}, {43}, {34}, {42}, {19}, {41}, {40}, {44}, \

Answer



We can use GraphPeriphery to get the start and endpoints, and then use these in FindPath:


periphery = GraphPeriphery[g]


FindPath[g, ##]& @@ periphery


{9,33}


{{9,10,1,2,4,3,8,7,6,5,24,23,25,26,29,30,37,38,39,40,43,44,35,36,31,32,27,28,21,22,17,18,14,13,15,16,12,11,20,19,42,41,34,33}}

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

How to thread a list

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-...
