Finding all the elementary circuits of a directed graph ------------------------------------------------------- Algorithm by D. B. Johnson Finding all the elementary circuits of a directed graph. D. B. Johnson, SIAM Journal on Computing 4, no. 1, 77-84, 1975. http://dx.doi.org/10.1137/0204007 Usage ----- make java de.normalisiert.utils.graphs.TestCycles 4 0,1 0,2 1,0 1,3 2,0 3,0 3,1 3,2 First argument is the number of vertices. Subsequent arguments are ordered pairs of comma separated vertices that make up the directed edges of the graph. DOT file input -------------- For simplicity, there is no DOT file parser included but the following allows to create a suitable argument string for simple DOT graphs. Given a DOT file of a simple (no labels, colors, styles, only pairs of vertices...) directed graph, the following line produces commandline arguments in the above format for that graph. echo `sed -n -e '/^\s*[0-9]\+;$/p' graph.dot | wc -l` `sed -n -e 's/^\s*\([0-9]\) -> \([0-9]\);$/\1,\2/p' graph.dot` The above line works on DOT files like the following: digraph G { 0; 1; 2; 0 -> 1; 0 -> 2; 1 -> 0; 2 -> 0; 2 -> 1; } It would produce the following output: 3 0,1 0,2 1,0 2,0 2,1
