matrix - Cell-adjacency Graph of a Square Mesh


Consider the list of points


pts = {{1, 1}, {1, 2}, {2, 1}, {2, 2}}

I want to use them to define a 2x2 square mesh using VoronoiMesh, where each cell has two neighbours. Following the discussion in this question, consider the following code


mesh = VoronoiMesh[pts, ImageSize -> Medium];
conn = mesh["ConnectivityMatrix"[2, 1]];
adj = conn.Transpose[conn];
centers = PropertyValue[{mesh, 2}, MeshCellCentroid];
g = AdjacencyGraph[adj, PlotTheme -> "Scientific",

VertexCoordinates -> centers];
Show[mesh, g]

As one can see, unlike other meshes, this one does not seem to work exactly as I want, since the diagonal edge should not appear. Why is this happening? Any way of avoiding that edge and get

as one would expect from a square lattice?


Edit: As noticed in the comment section, some of the polygons seem to have sharing edges that are single points, which is enough for them to be considered neighbouring cells. This effect is unchanged with the size of the lattice. If I consider, for example, the points


pts = Flatten[Table[{i, j}, {i, 7}, {j, 5}], 1];


I get

Any ideas on how to solve this? Maybe omit the extra edge in a way that doesn't this or other non-square meshes. For example, considering a random VoronoiMesh, nothing seems to wrong, though it could, theoretically, go

Answer



We can delete the rows in our incidence matrix that correspond to these edges of length 0.


pts = Flatten[Table[{i, j}, {i, 7}, {j, 5}], 1];

mesh = VoronoiMesh[pts, ImageSize -> Medium];
conn = mesh["ConnectivityMatrix"[1, 2]];


lens = PropertyValue[{mesh, 1}, MeshCellMeasure];
$threshold = 0.;
keep = Pick[Range[MeshCellCount[mesh, 1]], UnitStep[Subtract[$
threshold, lens]], 0];
conn = conn[[keep]];

adj = Transpose[conn].conn;
centers = PropertyValue[{mesh, 2}, MeshCellCentroid];
g = AdjacencyGraph[adj, PlotTheme -> "Scientific", VertexCoordinates -> centers];


Show[mesh, g]

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...

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-...
