The transitive reduction of a finite directed graph G is a graph with the fewest possible edges that has the same reachability relation as the original graph. That is, if there is a path from a vertex x to a vertex y in graph G, there must also be a path from x to y in the transitive reduction of G, and vice versa.
The transitive closure of a DAG is the graph with the most edges that has the same reachability relation as the DAG. It has an edge u → v for every pair of vertices ( u , v ) in the reachability relation ≤ of the DAG, and may therefore be thought of as a direct translation of the reachability relation ≤ into graph-theoretic terms.
The transitive closure of this relation is a different relation, namely "there is a sequence of direct flights that begins at city x and ends at city y". Every relation can be extended in a similar way to a transitive relation. An example of a non-transitive relation with a less meaningful transitive closure is "x is the day of the week after y".
Specifically, taking a strict partial order relation (, <), a directed acyclic graph (DAG) may be constructed by taking each element of to be a node and each element of < to be an edge. The transitive reduction of this DAG [b] is then the Hasse diagram. Similarly this process can be reversed to construct strict partial orders from certain DAGs.
A transitive reduction of a graph is a minimal graph having the same transitive closure; directed acyclic graphs have a unique transitive reduction. A transitive orientation is an orientation of a graph that is its own transitive closure; it exists only for comparability graphs. transpose
President Biden acknowledged concerns about his age, stamina and ability to have served a second term in an interview with USA Today in the Oval Office.
A Hasse diagram of the factors of 60 ordered by the is-a-divisor-of relation. In order theory, a Hasse diagram (/ ˈ h æ s ə /; German:) is a type of mathematical diagram used to represent a finite partially ordered set, in the form of a drawing of its transitive reduction.
A woman in Germany was sentenced to life in prison for murdering her "doppelgänger" in 2022. The victim's family in Algeria found out about the verdict three weeks later.
