Explanation of Solution

Here, in the graph G , if the updation of transitive closure takes O ( V2 ) time. To understand this scenario, suppose, addition of an edge ( x1 , x2 ) is performed in the graph G . Now, take the set of vertices ( u, v ) in order to get the path from u to x1 and x2 to v . If there is a possibility of having an edge that contains vertices in such manner like ( u , x1 ) and ( x2 , v ).

Therefore, perform addition of an edge ( u, v ) in transitive closure only if the closure holds the edges in ( u, x1 ) and ( x2, v ) manner. So, the consideration of pair required only once and the total run time of this procedure will be O ( V2 ).

(b)

Program Plan Intro

To give an example that the update of transitive closer will take O ( V2 ) time, when a new edge ‘ e’ is added to the graph G .

(b)

Explanation of Solution

Consider the condition where there aretwo strongly connected components with sizes | V |/2 and there is no common edge between them. The transitive closure can be computed by adding these two connected components of the graph.

Now, perform addition of a single edge between two connected components that provide connectivity between two separate components of the graph. Here, it is clearly visible that the total no. of edges will be increased by | V |/4 and the total no of edges will be [| V |/2 + | V |/4]. So, every time while adding a new edge required a constant time at least.

Therefore, the update of transitive closer will take O ( V2 ) time, when a new edge ‘ e’ is added to the graph G .

(c)

Program Plan Intro

To define an algorithm that takes O ( V3 ) time to update the transitive closure of graph G , when an edge is inserted in to the graph.

(c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Consider a set of vertices in the graphG , and there is a path between every pair of vertices. Now, while performing an addition of an edge ( u, v ), look at the ancestor of vertex u and add it there. The reason of looking at the ancestor of an edge is to explore the branches of the tree. This procedure will also applicable for the vertex v. through this, it will be very easy to get the already added edges and will only consider those edges in n times mostly.

Since, the edges in the tree required O ( V2 ) time for consideration. Therefore, the total time taken by the algorithm will be O ( V3 ).
