Number of automorphisms

Calculate the number of automorphisms of a graph, i.e. the number of isomorphisms to itself.

Keywords
graphs
Usage
graph.automorphisms(graph, sh="fm")
Arguments
graph
The input graph, it is treated as undirected.
sh
The splitting heuristics for the BLISS algorithm. Possible values are: f: first non-singleton cell, fl: first largest non-singleton cell, fs: first small
Details

An automorphism of a graph is a permutation of its vertices which brings the graph into itself.

This function calculates the number of automorphism of a graph using the BLISS algorithm. See also the BLISS homepage at http://www.tcs.hut.fi/Software/bliss/index.html.

Value

• A named list with the following members:
• group_sizeThe size of the automorphism group of the input graph, as a string. This number is exact if igraph was compiled with the GMP library, and approximate otherwise.
• nof_nodesThe number of nodes in the search tree.
• nof_leaf_nodesThe number of leaf nodes in the search tree.
• nof_bad_nodesNumber of bad nodes.
• nof_canupdatesNumber of canrep updates.
• max_levelMaximum level.

Examples
## A ring has n*2 automorphisms, you can "turn" it by 0-9 vertices
## and each of these graphs can be "flipped"
g <- graph.ring(10)
