k_crust
(G, k=None, core_number=None)[source]¶ Returns the k-crust of G.
The k-crust is the graph G with the k-core removed.
- Parameters
G (NetworkX graph) – A graph or directed graph.
k (int, optional) – The order of the shell. If not specified return the main crust.
core_number (dictionary, optional) – Precomputed core numbers for the graph G.
- Returns
G – The k-crust subgraph
- Return type
NetworkX graph
- Raises
NetworkXError – The k-crust is not implemented for graphs with self loops or parallel edges.
Notes
This definition of k-crust is different than the definition in 1. The k-crust in 1 is equivalent to the k+1 crust of this algorithm.
Not implemented for graphs with parallel edges or self loops.
For directed graphs the node degree is defined to be the in-degree + out-degree.
Graph, node, and edge attributes are copied to the subgraph.
