How to find those missing edges in a grid graph


I want to find a new method for this question.Suppose I have a such graph


graph = Graph[{1 <-> 2, 1 <-> 6, 2 <-> 3, 2 <-> 7, 3 <-> 4, 3 <-> 17, 
4 <-> 5, 4 <-> 9, 5 <-> 10, 6 <-> 7, 7 <-> 17, 7 <-> 12, 17 <-> 9,
17 <-> 13, 9 <-> 10, 9 <-> 14, 11 <-> 12, 11 <-> 16, 12 <-> 13,
12 <-> 8, 13 <-> 14, 13 <-> 18, 14 <-> 24, 14 <-> 19, 24 <-> 20,

16 <-> 8, 16 <-> 21, 8 <-> 18, 8 <-> 22, 18 <-> 19, 18 <-> 23,
19 <-> 20, 19 <-> 15, 20 <-> 25, 21 <-> 22, 21 <-> 26, 22 <-> 23,
22 <-> 27, 23 <-> 15, 23 <-> 28, 15 <-> 29, 25 <-> 30, 26 <-> 27,
27 <-> 28, 28 <-> 29, 29 <-> 30}, VertexLabels -> "Name"]

How to find those missing edges,such as {6<->11,10<->24,15<->25}?



Answer



If only edges are missing, you can first generate a list of candidate grid graphs with the same number of nodes as in graph, then see which one contains graph as a subgraph. IGraph/M has subgraph finding functionality.


It could be derived from any of these grids, as they all have the same number of nodes:



candidateGrids =
With[{vc = VertexCount[graph]},
GridGraph[{#, vc/#}] & /@ Select[Divisors[vc], # <= Sqrt[vc] &]
]

Mathematica graphics


Select the first one of these which contains graph as a subgraph:


<< IGraphM`
completeGrid = SelectFirst[candidateGrids, IGSubisomorphicQ[graph, #] &]


We can find one mapping between the vertices of graph and completeGrid using IGVF2GetSubisomorphism:


mapping = First@IGVF2GetSubisomorphism[graph, completeGrid]
(* <|1 -> 1, 2 -> 2, 6 -> 6, 3 -> 3, 7 -> 7, 4 -> 4, 17 -> 8,
5 -> 5, 9 -> 9, 10 -> 10, 12 -> 12, 13 -> 13, 14 -> 14, 11 -> 11,
16 -> 16, 8 -> 17, 18 -> 18, 24 -> 15, 19 -> 19, 20 -> 20, 21 -> 21,
22 -> 22, 23 -> 23, 15 -> 24, 25 -> 25, 26 -> 26, 27 -> 27, 28 -> 28,
29 -> 29, 30 -> 30|> *)

Then you can retrieve whatever you like: vertex coordinates, missing edges, etc.


coords = PropertyValue[{completeGrid, #}, VertexCoordinates] & /@ 

Lookup[mapping, VertexList[graph]]

SetProperty[
graph,
VertexCoordinates -> Thread[VertexList[graph] -> coords]
]

Mathematica graphics


Or missing edges:


reverseMapping = Reverse /@ Normal[mapping];


missing =
Block[{UndirectedEdge},
SetAttributes[UndirectedEdge, Orderless];
Complement[
EdgeList[completeGrid] /. reverseMapping,
EdgeList[graph]
]
]
(* {6 <-> 11, 10 <-> 24, 15 <-> 25} *)


(The Orderless attribute is temporarily set on UndirectedEdge to make sure that a <-> b is considered the same as b <-> a.)


HighlightGraph[
VertexReplace[completeGrid, reverseMapping],
missing,
GraphHighlightStyle -> "Dashed",
Options[completeGrid, GraphLayout]
]

Mathematica graphics





This will, of course, be quite slow due to the difficulty of finding subgraphs. It will only work well for small grids like the one in your example.


To get all possible mappings instead of just one, use IGVF2FindSubisomorphisms. There will always be at least 4 possible mapping due to the symmetries of grid graphs.

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1....
