WeaklyConnectedGraphQ

WeaklyConnectedGraphQ[g]

yields True if the graph g is weakly connected, and False otherwise.

Details

  • WeaklyConnectedGraphQ works for any graph object.
  • A graph is weakly connected if there is a sequence of edges joining every pair of vertices.
  • A graph is weakly connected if there is a sequence of edges joining every pair of vertices when the graph is considered undirected.

Basic Examples  (2)

Test whether a graph is weakly connected:

A graph with isolated vertices is not weakly connected:

Scope  (6)

Test undirected graphs:

Mixed graphs:

WeaklyConnectedGraphQ gives False for anything that is not a weakly connected graph:

WeaklyConnectedGraphQ works with large graphs:
