spanning trees algorithm

  • 1Spanning tree (mathematics) — In the mathematical field of graph theory, a spanning tree T of a connected, undirected graph G is a tree composed of all the vertices and some (or perhaps all) of the edges of G . Informally, a spanning tree of G is a selection of edges of G… …

  • 2Minimum spanning tree — The minimum spanning tree of a planar graph. Each edge is labeled with its weight, which here is roughly proportional to its length. Given a connected, undirected graph, a spanning tree of that graph is a subgraph that is a tree and connects all… …

  • 3Kruskal's algorithm — is an algorithm in graph theory that finds a minimum spanning tree for a connected weighted graph. This means it finds a subset of the edges that forms a tree that includes every vertex, where the total weight of all the edges in the tree is… …

  • 4Euclidean minimum spanning tree — The Euclidean minimum spanning tree or EMST is a minimum spanning tree of a set of points in the plane (or more generally in Bbb{R}^n), where the weight of the edge between each pair of points is the distance between those two points. In simpler… …
