HW 2 solutions at the end of the lecture

Mid term: Oct 16, in class

Breath First Search (BFS)

Is s connected to t?

Build layers of vertices connected to s

L0 = {s}

Assume L0,..,Lj have been constructed

Lj+1 set of vertices not chosen yet but are connected to Lj

Stop when new layer is empty

Lj : all nodes at distance j from sLj : all nodes at

distance j from s

BFS TreeBFS naturally defines a tree rooted at s

Lj forms the jth “level” in the tree

u in Lj+1 is child of v in Lj from which it was “discovered”

Add non-tree edgesAdd non-

tree edges

Connected ComponentConnected component (of s) is the set of all nodes connected to s

Today’s agenda

Every edge is between consecutive layers
