Info
 * The Petersen Graph is a named graph that consists of 10 vertices and 14 edges, usually drawn as a five-point star embedded in a pentagon.
 * The Petersen Graph is a common counterexample. For example, it is not Hamiltonian.
       
Plotting
 * When plotting the Petersen graph with the spring-layout algorithm, we see that this graph is not very symmetric and thus the display may not be very meaningful. Efficiency of construction and plotting is not an issue, as the Petersen graph
only has 10 vertices and 14 edges.
 * Our labeling convention here is to start on the outer pentagon from the top, moving counterclockwise. Then the nodes on the inner star, starting at the top and moving counterclockwise.

Info
 * Returns a complete graph on n nodes.
 * A Complete Graph is a graph in which all nodes are connected to all other nodes.
 * This constructor is dependant on vertices numbered 0 through n-1 in NetworkX complete_graph()
        
Plotting
 * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, each complete graph will be displayed with the first (0) node at the top, with the rest following in a counterclockwise manner.
 * In the complete graph, there is a big difference visually in using the spring-layout algorithm vs. the position dictionary used in this constructor. The position dictionary flattens the graph, making it clear which nodes an edge is connected to. But the complete graph offers a good example of how the spring-layout works. The edges push outward (everything is connected), causing the graph to appear as a 3-dimensional pointy ball. (See examples below).
 * Filling the position dictionary in advance adds O(n) to the constructor. Feel free to race the constructors below in the examples section. The much larger difference is the time added by the spring-layout algorithm when plotting. (Also shown in the example below). The spring model is typically described as O(n^3), as appears to be the case in the NetworkX source code.

Info
  * Returns a barbell graph with 2*n1 + n2 nodes. n1 must be greater than or equal to 2.
        
  * A barbell graph is a basic structure that consists of a path graph of order n2 connecting two complete graphs of order n1 each.
        
  * This constructor depends on NetworkX numeric labels. In this case, the (n1)th node connects to the path graph from one complete graph and the (n1+n2+1)th node connects to the path graph from the other complete graph.
        
Plotting

  * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, each barbell graph will be displayed with the two complete graphs in the lower-left and upper-right corners, with the path graph connecting diagonally between the two. Thus the (n1)th node will be drawn at a 45 degree angle from the horizontal right center of the first complete graph, and the (n1+n2+1)th node will be drawn 45 degrees below the left horizontal center of the second complete graph.

Code

  * Returns a bull graph with 5 nodes.
        
  * A bull graph is named for its shape. It's a triangle with horns.
        
  * This constructor depends on NetworkX numeric labeling.

Info

  * Returns a circular ladder graph with 2*n nodes.

  * A Circular ladder graph is a ladder graph that is connected at the ends, i.e.: a ladder bent around so that top meets bottom. Thus it can be described as two parrallel cycle graphs connected at each corresponding node pair.
        
  * This constructor depends on NetworkX numeric labels.

Plotting

  * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, the circular ladder graph is displayed as an inner and outer cycle pair, with the first n nodes drawn on the inner circle. The first (0) node is drawn at the top of the inner-circle, moving clockwise after that. The outer circle is drawn with the (n+1)th node at the top, then counterclockwise as well.

Info

 * Returns a cycle graph with n nodes.
 * A cycle graph is a basic structure which is also typically called an n-gon.
 * This constructor is dependant on vertices numbered 0 through n-1 in NetworkX cycle_graph()

Plotting
 * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, each cycle graph will be displayed with the first (0) node at the top, with the rest following in a counterclockwise manner.

 * The cycle graph is a good opportunity to compare efficiency of filling a position dictionary vs. using the spring-layout algorithm for plotting. Because the cycle graph is very symmetric, the resulting plots should be similar (in cases of small n).

 * Filling the position dictionary in advance adds O(n) to the constructor. Feel free to race the constructors below in the examples section. The much larger difference is the time added by the spring-layout algorithm when plotting. (Also shown in the example below). The spring model is typically described as O(n^3), as appears to be the case in the NetworkX source code.

=== Grid2d Graphs ===
Info

  * A 2d grid graph resembles a 2 dimensional grid. All inner nodes are connected to their 4 neighbors. Outer (non-corner) nodes are connected to their 3 neighbors. Corner nodes are connected to their 2 neighbors.

  * This constructor depends on NetworkX numeric labels.

Plotting

  * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, nodes are labelled in (row, column) pairs with (0, 0) in the top left corner. Edges will always be horizontal and vertical - another advantage of filling the position dictionary.

Code
{{{
 pos_dict = {}

Info
  * Returns a Krackhardt kite graph with 10 nodes.

  * This constructor depends on NetworkX numeric labeling.

  * The Krackhardt kite graph was originally developed by David Krackhardt for the purpose of studying social networks. It is used to show the distinction between: degree centrality, betweeness centrality, and closeness centrality. For more information read the plotting section below in conjunction with the example.

References
  * Kreps, V. (2002). "Social Network Analysis". [http://www.fsu.edu/~spap/water/network/intro.htm Link]

Plotting
  * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, the graph is drawn left to right, in top to bottom row sequence of [2, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1] nodes on each row. This places the fourth node (3) in the center of the kite, with the highest degree.

  * But the fourth node only connects nodes that are otherwise connected, or those in its clique (i.e.: Degree Centrality).

  * The eigth (7) node is where the kite meets the tail. It has degree = 3, less than the average, but is the only connection between the kite and tail (i.e.: Betweenness Centrality).

  * The sixth and seventh nodes (5 and 6) are drawn in the third row and have degree = 5. These nodes have the shortest path to all other nodes in the graph (i.e.: Closeness Centrality). Please execute the example for visualization.

=== Star Graphs ===

Info

 * Returns a star graph with n+1 nodes.
 * A Star graph is a basic structure where one node is connected to all other nodes.
 * This constructor is dependant on NetworkX numeric labels.

Plotting

 * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, each star graph will be displayed with the first (0) node in the center, the second node (1) at the top, with the rest following in a counterclockwise manner. (0) is the node connected to all other nodes.
        
 * The star graph is a good opportunity to compare efficiency of filling a position dictionary vs. using the spring-layout algorithm for plotting. As far as display, the spring-layout should push all other nodes away from the (0) node, and thus look very similar to this constructor's positioning.

 * Filling the position dictionary in advance adds O(n) to the constructor. Feel free to race the constructors below in the examples section. The much larger difference is the time added by the spring-layout algorithm when plotting. (Also shown in the example below). The spring model is typically described as O(n^3), as appears to be the case in the NetworkX source code.

Code
{{{
 import networkx as NX
 pos_dict = {}
 pos_dict[0] = [0,0]
 for i in range(n+1)[1:]:
     x = float(functions.cos((pi/2) + ((2*pi)/n)*(i-1)))
     y = float(functions.sin((pi/2) + ((2*pi)/n)*(i-1)))
     pos_dict[i] = [x,y]
 G = NX.star_graph(n)
 return graph.Graph(G, pos=pos_dict, name="Star graph on %d vertices"%(n+1))

=== Wheel Graphs ===

Info

 * Returns a Wheel graph with n nodes.
 * A Wheel graph is a basic structure where one node is connected to all other nodes and those (outer) nodes are connected cyclically.
 * This constructor depends on NetworkX numeric labels.
        
Plotting

 * Upon construction, the position dictionary is filled to override the spring-layout algorithm. By convention, each wheel graph will be displayed with the first (0) node in the center, the second node at the top, and the rest following in a counterclockwise manner.
 * With the wheel graph, we see that it doesn't take a very large n at all for the spring-layout to give a counter-intuitive display. (See Graphics Array examples below).
 * Filling the position dictionary in advance adds O(n) to the constructor. Feel free to race the constructors below in the examples section. The much larger difference is the time added by the spring-layout algorithm when plotting. (Also shown in the example below). The spring model is typically described as O(n^3), as appears to be the case in the NetworkX source code.

Emily Kirkman is working on this project. [http://sage.math.washington.edu:9001/graph Back to main wiki.]

The goal of the Graph Generators Class is to implement constructors for many common graphs, as well as thorough docstrings that can be used for reference. The graph generators will grow as the Graph Theory Project does. So please check back for additions and feel free to leave requests in the suggestions section.

We currently have 30 constructors of named graphs and basic structures. Most of these graphs are constructed with a preset dictionary of x-y coordinates of each node. This is advantageous for both style and time. (The default graph plotting in SAGE uses the spring-layout algorithm). SAGE graphs all have an associated graphics object, and examples of plotting options are shown on the graphs below.

As we implement algorithms into the Graph Theory Package, the constructors of known graphs would set their properties upon instantiation as well. For example, if someone created a very large complete bipartite graph and then asked if it is a bipartite graph (not currently implemented), then instead of running through an algorithm to check it, we could return a value set at instantiation. Further, this will improve the reference use of the docstrings as we would list the properties of each named graph.

Due to the volume of graphs now in the generators class, this wiki page is now intended to give status updates and serve as a gallery of graphs currently implemented. To see information on a specific graph, run SAGE or the SAGE [http://sage.math.washington.edu:8100 notebook]. For a list of graph constructos, type "graphs." and hit tab. For docstrings, type the graph name and one question mark (i.e.: "graphs.CubeGraph?") then shift + enter. For source code, do likewise with two question marks.
