[docs] @nx._dispatchable(returns_graph=True) def line_graph(G, create_using=None): r"""Returns the line graph of the graph or digraph `G`. The line graph of a graph `G` has a node for each edge in `G` and an edge joining those nodes if the two edges in `G` share a common node. For directed graphs, nodes are adjacent exactly when the edges they represent form a directed path of length two. The nodes of the line graph are 2-tuples of nodes in the original graph (or 3-tuples for multigraphs, with the key of the edge as the third element). For information about self-loops and more discussion, see the **Notes** section below. Parameters ---------- G : graph A NetworkX Graph, DiGraph, MultiGraph, or MultiDigraph. create_using : NetworkX graph constructor, optional (default=nx.Graph) Graph type to create. If graph instance, then cleared before populated. Returns ------- L : graph The line graph of G. Examples -------- >>> G = nx.star_graph(3) >>> L = nx.line_graph(G) >>> print(sorted(map(sorted, L.edges()))) # makes a 3-clique, K3 [[(0, 1), (0, 2)], [(0, 1), (0, 3)], [(0, 2), (0, 3)]] Edge attributes from `G` are not copied over as node attributes in `L`, but attributes can be copied manually: >>> G = nx.path_graph(4) >>> G.add_edges_from((u, v, {"tot": u + v}) for u, v in G.edges) >>> G.edges(data=True) EdgeDataView([(0, 1, {'tot': 1}), (1, 2, {'tot': 3}), (2, 3, {'tot': 5})]) >>> H = nx.line_graph(G) >>> H.add_nodes_from((node, G.edges[node]) for node in H) >>> H.nodes(data=True) NodeDataView({(0, 1): {'tot': 1}, (2, 3): {'tot': 5}, (1, 2): {'tot': 3}}) Notes ----- Graph, node, and edge data are not propagated to the new graph. For undirected graphs, the nodes in G must be sortable, otherwise the constructed line graph may not be correct. *Self-loops in undirected graphs* For an undirected graph `G` without multiple edges, each edge can be written as a set `\{u, v\}`. Its line graph `L` has the edges of `G` as its nodes. If `x` and `y` are two nodes in `L`, then `\{x, y\}` is an edge in `L` if and only if the intersection of `x` and `y` is nonempty. Thus, the set of all edges is determined by the set of all pairwise intersections of edges in `G`. Trivially, every edge in G would have a nonzero intersection with itself, and so every node in `L` should have a self-loop. This is not so interesting, and the original context of line graphs was with simple graphs, which had no self-loops or multiple edges. The line graph was also meant to be a simple graph and thus, self-loops in `L` are not part of the standard definition of a line graph. In a pairwise intersection matrix, this is analogous to excluding the diagonal entries from the line graph definition. Self-loops and multiple edges in `G` add nodes to `L` in a natural way, and do not require any fundamental changes to the definition. It might be argued that the self-loops we excluded before should now be included. However, the self-loops are still "trivial" in some sense and thus, are usually excluded. *Self-loops in directed graphs* For a directed graph `G` without multiple edges, each edge can be written as a tuple `(u, v)`. Its line graph `L` has the edges of `G` as its nodes. If `x` and `y` are two nodes in `L`, then `(x, y)` is an edge in `L` if and only if the tail of `x` matches the head of `y`, for example, if `x = (a, b)` and `y = (b, c)` for some vertices `a`, `b`, and `c` in `G`. Due to the directed nature of the edges, it is no longer the case that every edge in `G` should have a self-loop in `L`. Now, the only time self-loops arise is if a node in `G` itself has a self-loop. So such self-loops are no longer "trivial" but instead, represent essential features of the topology of `G`. For this reason, the historical development of line digraphs is such that self-loops are included. When the graph `G` has multiple edges, once again only superficial changes are required to the definition.
