Description (last modified by )
This ticket is used to keep track of the progress towards python3 in graphs.
Major issues
- methods
.vertices()
and.edges()
use sort by default - direct comparison of vertex labels (e.g., in method
iterator_edges
ofbase/sparse_graph.pyx
) - all
min_spanning_tree
methods sort edges before returning the result - #26940 is attempt to stop sorting returned list of edges

May I ask in which ticket, if any, you do touch the "is_isomorphic" method ?
I would really like this to work with python 3:
sage: G = Graph() sage: G.add_edge((1,'a')) sage: G Graph on 2 vertices sage: G.is_isomorphic(G)
comment:10 Changed 4 years ago by
I have not touched any method related to isomorphism. I have only opened a ticket to show a bug with canonical_label
#26800.
comment:11 Changed 4 years ago by
ok.. Then either we wait for all these tickets to be closed (and this may take a lot of time) or we can try to fix this isomorphism problem now..
comment:12 Changed 4 years ago by
We can start working on it. In the worst case, I will have to fix some merge conflicts.
comment:13 Changed 4 years ago by
I have made a first tentative at u/chapoton/graphe_iso
comment:14 Changed 4 years ago by
I'm not good enough with git to know what you have changed, except the first 2 calls to .vertices()
. It seems ok. Note that the function has 2 more calls to .vertices()
that are clearly useless. I think the proposed change fix some doctests, so you should open a ticket.

comment:35 Changed 4 years ago by
I would like to ask some questions about how to deal with simplicial complexes.
- The
is_isomorphic
method for simplicial complexes translates each complex to a graph and then asks whether they are isomorphic, preserving edge labels. Some edges are labeled and some are not: the edge labels look likesage: g.edge_labels() [None, None, 'special_edge', 'special_edge']
This fails in Python 3 because it tries to sort edges, and it can't sortstr
andNoneType
. It is easy enough to provide labels in this case, but should the graphis_isomorphic
method deal well with graphs where some edges have labels and some don't? (I don't have an opinion and I will fix the simplicial complex code separately.)
- Again with the
is_isomorphic
method for simplicial complexes: it defines a graph with vertices labeled by the vertices of the complex and its facets, and it adds an edge between a vertexv
and a facetf
ifv
is inf
. The graph code tries to sort the vertices, and since the vertices in a simplicial complex can be integers, strings, whatever, the sorting goes badly. Again, I think I can handle this for simplicial complexes by translating everything to something sortable, then sorting, and then translating back at the end, but should the graphis_isomorphic
method handle these sorts of cases better?
- Consider this:
sage: S1 = simplicial_complexes.Sphere(1) sage: g = S1.wedge(S1).graph() sage: g Graph on 5 vertices sage: g.vertices() [0, 'L1', 'L2', 'R1', 'R2']

Once again, I could probably get around this by translating all of the vertices to something sortable and then translating back, but I do think that the graph theory code should be able to handle graphs whose vertices are a combination ofint
andstr
and anything else. I would like to put in a request for fixing this particular problem.
comment:36 Changed 4 years ago by
Maybe one of these (the second one, I think) was taken care of by #27027.
comment:37 Changed 4 years ago by
See #27067 for simplicial complexes fixes for the first two items.
comment:38 Changed 4 years ago by
- Milestone changed from sage-8.7 to sage-pending
I fully agree that the graph theory code should be able to handle vertices of different types. We have done significant progresses recently, and many methods are no longer sorting vertices. But a lot remains to be done since a huge part of the code uses vertex ids instead of internal int labels. We have to find solutions for instance for listing edges as end points are currently sorted...
Note that I'm not able to try your example with py3 as this S1.wedge(S1).graph()
already raises an error.
comment:39 Changed 4 years ago by
First, you have all done great work with graphs, and you've made a tremendous amount of progress. Partly my questions were because I don't know whether some of these things have been done in tickets which have not yet been merged, but I think that's not the case.
Speaking of things which have not yet been merged, you need #26966 to be able to do S1.wedge(S1).graph()
. Sorry, I hadn't realized that when I posted my example.
comment:40 Changed 4 years ago by
Also, as I hope was clear in my questions, the first two are not critiques but honest questions: I don't know how Sage should handle those situations. The fact that things happen to work in Python 2 does not mean that they should automatically work in Python 3. For example, if you explicitly ask for isomorphisms preserving edge labels, an argument could be made that you should actually label all of the edges. The last item on my list was an explicit request, which it sounds like you agree with but also sounds like it take some work.

I'm answering here the question of #26567#comment:9 about how to make
iterator_edges
ofsparse_graph.pyx
py3 compatible, and if something similar to #26567 fordense_graph.pyx
can be done forsparse_graph.pyx
.So far, I don't know what's the best option.
get_vertex_label
(that we already have but rarely use) only when the user wants to display lists of vertices/edges. I think networkx is now doing something like that.All these options have pros and cons, and each of them will require a significant amount of work to fix doctests and algorithms.
In the last months, we did significant progresses on reducing the dependency on ordering, but this is not enough and this central issue is very complex to fix. Which is the best option in the short/long term ?
