Scilab function

cycle_basis - basis of cycle of a simple undirected graph

Calling Sequence

spc = cycle_basis(g)

Parameters

Description

First a spanning tree is found by using min_weight_tree and then used to find all fundamental cycles with respect to this tree. They are returned as a set of cycles, each cycle being represented by a set of edges. These cycles are returned in a sparse matrix spc: each line of this matrix corresponds to a cycle.

The graph g is supposed to be a simple undirected and connected graph (cycle_basis does not check that the graph is simple, use graph_simp before calling it if necessary).
