IncidenceMatrix(G)

IncidenceMatrix(G, reverse)

Parameters

G

-

graph

reverse

-

(literal) reverse the sign convention for digraphs

Description

• 

IncidenceMatrix(G) returns the incidence matrix of a graph G whose rows are indexed by the vertices and columns by the edges of G.  The order of the edges is defined by Edges(G).

• 

If G is undirected the entry i,j of this 0,1-matrix is 1 iff vertex i is incident to edge j.

• 

If G is directed the entry i,j of this −1,0,1-matrix is 1 iff vertex i is the head of arc j and −1 iff vertex i is the tail of arc j.

• 

If G is directed and reverse is specified, the entry i,j of this −1,0,1-matrix is −1 iff vertex i is the head of arc j and 1 iff vertex i is the tail of arc j.
