VertexAdd

VertexAdd[g,v]

makes a graph by adding the vertex v to the graph g.

VertexAdd[g,{v1,v2,…}]

adds a collection of vertices to g.

VertexAdd[{vw,…},…]

uses rules vw to specify the graph g.

Details and Options

  • VertexAdd is also known as vertex insertion.
  • VertexAdd[g,v] will add the vertex v only if it does not already exist in g.
  • VertexAdd works with undirected graphs, directed graphs, multigraphs, and mixed graphs.
