A Henneberg-based algorithm for generating tree-decomposable minimally rigid graphs
In this work we describe an algorithm to generate tree-decomposable minimally rigid graphs on a given set of vertices V. The main idea is based on the well-known fact that all minimally rigid graphs, also known as Laman graphs, can be generated via Henneberg sequences. Given that not each minimally...

| Summary: | In this work we describe an algorithm to generate tree-decomposable minimally rigid graphs on a given set of vertices V. The main idea is based on the well-known fact that all minimally rigid graphs, also known as Laman graphs, can be generated via Henneberg sequences. Given that not each minimally rigid graph is tree-decomposable, we identify a set of conditions on the way Henneberg steps are applied so that the resulting graph is tree decomposable. We show that the worst case running time of the algorithm is O (vertical bar V vertical bar(3)). (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
