Overview

Connected components with edge direction ignored. For directed graphs, this is the weakly connected component decomposition. For strongly connected components, use strongly_connected_components.

Two vertices are in the same connected component if there is a path between them after ignoring edge directions. Internally this function uses DSU, merging the endpoints of every logical edge.

Use this when you need to split a graph into independent pieces, count components, check ordinary connectivity, or process each connected block separately.

Graph Orientation

Direction is ignored. On a directed graph, this computes weakly connected components. For strongly connected components, use strongly_connected_components.

How to Use It

Call connected_components(g).

The result contains these members:

Member	Type / Signature	Meaning
count	int	Number of connected components.
comp	std::vector<int>	comp[v] is the component id of vertex v.
groups	std::vector<std::vector<int>>	groups[c] is the list of vertices in component c.
same	bool same(int u, int v) const	Returns whether u and v are in the same component.

For undirected graphs, build with add_edge. For directed graphs, remember that the decomposition is weak connectivity; reachability direction is ignored.

Functions

Function	Signature	Description	Complexity
connected_components	template <class T> ConnectedComponents connected_components(const Graph<T>& g)	Returns component ids and groups.	$O(N + M)$

Example

#include "graph/connected_components.hpp"
#include "graph/graph.hpp"
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    m1une::graph::Graph<> g(5);
    g.add_edge(0, 1);
    g.add_edge(2, 3);

    auto cc = m1une::graph::connected_components(g);
    std::cout << cc.count << "\n";      // 3
    std::cout << cc.same(0, 1) << "\n"; // 1
    std::cout << cc.same(0, 2) << "\n"; // 0
}
