edges2vees: List Dihedral Triples in a Graph

Description

Given a list of edges between vertices, compile a list of all ‘vees’ or dihedral triples formed by these edges.

Usage

edges2vees(iedge, jedge, nvert=max(iedge, jedge), …,
                check=TRUE)

Arguments

iedge,jedge

Integer vectors, of equal length, specifying the edges.

nvert

Number of vertices in the network.

…

Ignored

check

Logical. Whether to check validity of input data.

Value

A 3-column matrix of integers, in which each row represents a triple of vertices, with the first vertex joined to the other two vertices.

Details

Given a finite graph with nvert vertices and with edges specified by iedge, jedge, this low-level function finds all ‘vees’ or ‘dihedral triples’ in the graph, that is, all triples of vertices (i,j,k) where i and j are joined by an edge and i and k are joined by an edge.

The interpretation of iedge, jedge is that each successive pair of entries specifies an edge in the graph. The \(k\)th edge joins vertex iedge[k] to vertex jedge[k]. Entries of iedge and jedge must be integers from 1 to nvert.
