Adjacency Matrix - Examples

Examples

The convention followed here is that an adjacent edge counts 1 in the matrix for an undirected graph.

Labeled graph Adjacency matrix
\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0\\ 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1\\ 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0\\ \end{pmatrix}

Coordinates are 1-6.


The Nauru graph


Coordinates are 0-23.
White fields are zeros, colored fields are ones.


Directed Cayley graph of S4


As the graph is directed,
the matrix is not symmetric.
  • The adjacency matrix of a complete graph is all 1's except for 0's on the diagonal.
  • The adjacency matrix of an empty graph is a zero matrix.

Famous quotes containing the word examples:

    “No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.”
    —André Breton (1896–1966)

    “Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.”
