Depending on the underlying graph, you also need to handle cycles intelligently. In social networks, mutual relationships are ...

Graphs are everywhere. In discrete mathematics, they are structures that show the connections between points, much like a ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

A puzzle that has long flummoxed computers and the scientists who program them has suddenly become far more manageable. A new algorithm efficiently solves the graph isomorphism problem, computer ...

Graph algorithms constitute a fundamental area of computational research that focuses on the analysis and manipulation of graph structures, which represent systems of interconnected entities. In ...

A couple of weeks ago, I attended and spoke at the first stop in the Neo4j GraphTour in Washington D.C. and I was able to get the best answer yet to a question that I’d been pondering: what’s the ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...
