Graph Traversals Depth-first search and breadth-first search Both traversals result in a spanning tree, which can be modeled using a class.

The root of the tree.

Constructs a tree with the specified root, parent, and
searchOrder.
Returns the root of the tree.
Returns the order of vertices searched.
Returns the parent for the specified vertex index.
Returns the number of vertices searched.
Returns a list of vertices from the specified vertex index
to the root.

Displays tree with the root and all edges.
Depth-First Search The depth-first search of a graph is like the depth-first search of a tree discussed in §25.2.3, “Tree Traversal.” In the case of a tree, the search starts from the root. In a graph, the search can start from any vertex.
Input: G = (V, E) and a starting vertex v
Output: a DFS tree rooted at v
Tree dfs(vertex v) {
visit v;
for each neighbor w of v
if (w has not been visited) {
set v as the parent for w;
dfs(w);
}
}
Depth-First Search Example
Depth-First Search Example
Applications of the DFS ▪ Detecting whether a graph is connected. Search the graph starting from
any vertex. If the number of vertices searched is the same as the number of vertices in the graph, the graph is connected. Otherwise, the graph is not connected.
▪ Detecting whether there is a path between two vertices. ▪ Finding a path between two vertices. ▪ Finding all connected components. A connected component is a
maximal connected subgraph in which every pair of vertices are connected by a path.
▪ Detecting whether there is a cycle in the graph. ▪ Finding a cycle in the graph.
The Connected Circles Problem
ConnectedCircles
Breadth-First Search
The breadth-first traversal of a graph is like the breadth- first traversal of a tree discussed in §25.2.3, “Tree Traversal.” With breadth-first traversal of a tree, the nodes are visited level by level. First the root is visited, then all the children of the root, then the grandchildren of the root from left to right, and so on.
Breadth-First Search Algorithm Input: G = (V, E) and a starting vertex v Output: a BFS tree rooted at v
bfs(vertex v) {
create an empty queue for storing vertices to be visited;
add v into the queue;
mark v visited;
while the queue is not empty {
dequeue a vertex, say u, from the queue
process u;
for each neighbor w of u
if w has not been visited {
add w into the queue;
set u as the parent for w;
mark w visited;
}
}
}
Breadth-First Search Example
Applications of the BFS
▪ Detecting whether a graph is connected. A graph is connected if there is a path between any two vertices in the graph.
▪ Detecting whether there is a path between two vertices. ▪ Finding a shortest path between two vertices. You can prove that the path
between the root and any node in the BFS tree is the shortest path between the root and the node.
▪ Finding all connected components. A connected component is a maximal connected subgraph in which every pair of vertices are connected by a path.
▪ Detecting whether there is a cycle in the graph. ▪ Finding a cycle in the graph. ▪ Testing whether a graph is bipartite. A graph is bipartite if the vertices of the
graph can be divided into two disjoint sets such that no edges exist between vertices in the same set.
The Nine Tail Problem The problem is stated as follows. Nine coins are placed in a three by three matrix with some face up and some face down. A legal move is to take any coin that is face up and reverse it, together with the coins adjacent to it (this does not include coins that are diagonally adjacent). Your task is to find the minimum number of the moves that lead to all coins face down.
