make_line_graph

Line graph of a graph

This function calculates the line graph of another graph.

Usage

make_line_graph(graph)
line_graph(...)

Details

The line graph L(G) of a G undirected graph is defined as follows. L(G) has one vertex for each edge in G and two vertices in L(G) are connected by an edge if their corresponding edges share an end point.

The line graph L(G) of a G directed graph is slightly different, L(G) has one vertex for each edge in G and two vertices in L(G) are connected by a directed edge if the target of the first vertex's corresponding edge is the same as the source of the second vertex's corresponding edge.

make_line_graph(make_line_graph(make_line_graph(g)))
