=== Survey of Existing Software ===
 * [http://sage.math.washington.edu:9001/graph_survey Link]
 * We have attempted to make a complete list of existing graph theory software. We posted functionality lists and some algorithm/construction summaries. We are very interested in feedback!
=== Benchmarks ===
 * [http://sage.math.washington.edu:9001/graph_benchmark Link]
 * Our initial tests are designed to compare the constructions and very basic functionality found in our survey of existing software. At this stage in the game, we are testing to find the best way to represent graph objects in SAGE.
 * We will post results on the wiki as we get them. And as always, we love feedback!

The SAGE Graph Theory Project

Introduction

  • We are implementing graph objects and algorithms in ["SAGE"]. The main people working on this project are Emily Kirkman and Robert Miller.

Current Status

  • NetworkX base classes have been interfaced, and all functions are soon to follow.
  • Jason Grout's (Brigham Young) SQL lite graph database is almost finished, and when it is done, it will be interfaced by Emily.

  • Jim Morrow (UW) has expressed interest in using SAGE for his [http://www.math.washington.edu/~morrow/reu07/reu.html summer REU] on graphs. Robert is working on implementing electrical networks, which includes implementing edge weights and graphs with boundary.

  • Chris Godsil (Waterloo) has expressed interest in helping design a more general discrete math package in SAGE.

  • Brendan McKay's isomorphism algorithm has been replicated for the open source community (it is called "nice", as opposed to "nauty").

  • Graph plotting has been implemented in two dimensions: 

C = graphs.CubeGraph(9)
color = {}
for v in C.vertices():
    b = v.count('1')/9
    g = 1 - b
    if color.has_key((0, g, b)): color[(0, g, b)].append(v)
    else: color[(0, g, b)] = [v]
C.show(vertex_labels=False, node_size=60, graph_border=True, color_dict=color, figsize=[9,8])
