functions - Vertex descendants subgraph


Keywords: vertex, ancestors, descendants, subgraph, directed graph, flow subtree




So let's say we have a TreeGraph:


opts = Sequence[
   EdgeShapeFunction -> GraphElementData["FilledArrow", "ArrowSize" -> 0.02], 
   VertexLabels      -> "Name"
];

data = RandomInteger[#] -> # + 1 & /@ Range[0, 10];

g = TreeGraph[data, opts]


enter image description here


Question


What's the proper/functional way to get subgraph containing only successors of given node with respect to the flow.


I'm not very familiar with graphs so I have a solution (bottom) but I suppose I'm missing some basic graph related functions.


Example


for 0 it would be the whole graph


for 4 it would be {4->5, 5->8, 8->9}


Problem


I can't find appriopriate function and AdjacencyList/IncidenceList don't respect the direction of the flow:


topV = 4;

HighlightGraph[g, 
  {Style[topV, Blue], AdjacencyList[g, topV, 2], IncidenceList[g, topV, 2]}
]

enter image description here


My brute force but not so stupid solution:


let's cut the inflow! so the AdjacencyList won't leave this way :)


subTreeWF[g, 4] // TreeGraph[#, opts] &

enter image description here



I'm assuming here that the topNode is not the final one, in such case additional check is needed.


subTreeWF[treeGraph_, topNode_] := Module[{edges},
  edges = EdgeList @ treeGraph;
  edges = DeleteCases[  edges, 
     (Rule | DirectedEdge | UndirectedEdge)[_, topNode]
  ];

  IncidenceList[Graph @ edges, topNode, \[Infinity]]

]



g = Graph[RandomInteger[#] -> # + 1 & /@ Range[0, 30], opts];

topV = 5;

HighlightGraph[g, {Style[topV, Blue], subTreeWF[g, topV]}]

enter image description here



Answer




You are looking for VertexOutComponent.


VertexOutComponent[g, 4]

gives you the successors of 4. Use Subgraph to get an actual graph out of those. With HighlightGraph, you can also use a subgraph, it will highlight both vertices and edges: HighlightGraph[g, Subgraph[g, VertexOutComponent[g, 4]]].


For visualizing the graph, use GraphLayout -> "LayeredDigraphEmbedding", which will place the root at the topmost position. Some other tree layouts have a "RootVertex" suboptions to achieve this (e.g. for undirected where anything can be the "root").

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

equation solving - Invert and fit implicitly defined curve

I need to fit an implicitly defined curve. I thought I could get some data out of Solve , and then using FindFit . Therefore, I would like to find the relation the parametric curve defined by $F(x,y)=0$: Solve[-(1/2) + 1/2 (0.41202 BesselK[0, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]] + (0.101483 x BesselK[1, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]])/Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]) == 0, y] But I can't get an output: Solve was unable to solve the system with inexact coefficients or the system obtained by direct rationalization of inexact numbers present in the system. Since many of the methods used by Solve require exact input, providing Solve with an exact version of the system may help. >> Edit: In particular, I would like to fit the data coming from the curve with the expression of another curve, and not with a function $f(x)$. In particular, since this clearly looks like a cardioid , I would like it to fit to something like it. What other strategies could I try?

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...
