MinimumVertexCover[g]

finds a minimum vertex cover of graph g.

Details and Options

  • MinimumVertexCover functionality is now available in the built-in Wolfram Language function FindVertexCover.
  • To use MinimumVertexCover, you first need to load the Combinatorica Package using Needs["Combinatorica`"].
  • For bipartite graphs, the function uses the polynomial-time Hungarian algorithm. For everything else, the function uses brute force.
