Generic graph (and tree) algorithms.

graph-ancestry

Generic graph ancestry algorithms.

And their supporting general algorithms.

Requirements

• Boost.
  • Concept - concept checking
  • Multi-Array - Sparse Table data structure
  • Graph - graph/tree algorithms and data structures
  • Test, Timer - unit tests and measurements

Contents

1. Graph algorithms
2. lowest_common_ancestor (LCA), <Θ(n lg n), Θ(1)> * By reduction to RMQ. * Requires the graph to be a tree.
3. common_ancestor_existence, <O(|V|⋅|E|), Θ(1)> * Uses reflect_through_sources and transitive_closure to produce an adjacency_matrix that can be queried in Θ(1).
4. reflect_through_sources, O(|V|⋅|E|) * Produces graph F, which given input graph G, let G' be the reverse graph of G; then F is the result of attaching the sources of G to the sinks of G'.
5. Graph visitors
   1. eulerian_path outputs Eulerian path of a graph.
   2. vertex_depth outputs vertex depth (for same sequence as Eulerian path).
6. General algorithms
   1. range minimum query (RMQ), <Θ(n lg n), Θ(1)>
   • The Sparse Table implementation.

Early results

On a moderately large input (4 million integers) RMQ preprocesses in ~0.402 seconds (96 ns per element).

On a smaller input (1 million vertices), LCA preprocesses in ~0.883 seconds (842 ns per element).

Queries for both are in ~7-16 nanoseconds.

Measured on my humble Intel Core i5 mobile.
