Dsa Graph Bipartite

DodaTech 1 min read

In this tutorial, you'll learn about How to Fix Bipartite Graph Errors. We cover key concepts, practical examples, and best practices.

Fix bipartite graph errors when coloring doesn't propagate or odd cycle detection fails.

Quick Fix

Wrong

def bip(g):
    c={}
    for v in g:
        if v not in c:
            q=[v]; c[v]=0
            while q:
                u=q.pop(0)
                for n in g[u]:
                    if c.get(n,c[u])!=c[u]: return False
    return True

Wrong: c.get(n,c[u]) always creates new entry with same color. Colors never alternate.

def bip(g):
    c={}
    for v in g:
        if v not in c:
            q=[v]; c[v]=0
            while q:
                u=q.pop(0)
                for n in g[u]:
                    if n in c:
                        if c[n]==c[u]: return False
                    else: c[n]=1-c[u]; q.append(n)
    return True
Graph {0:[1,3],1:[0,2],2:[1,3],3:[0,2]} -> True (bipartite). O(V+E).

Prevention

BFS/DFS color graph with two colors. If neighbor has same color, not bipartite.

FAQ

What is bipartite?

Graph whose vertices can be split into two sets with all edges crossing between sets.

Odd cycle?

Odd cycle makes graph non-bipartite. Even cycle is bipartite.

Applications?

Two-coloring problems, scheduling, matchmaking.
