dwave_networkx.is_clique#

is_clique(G, clique_nodes)[source]#

Determines whether the given nodes form a clique.

A clique is a subset of nodes of an undirected graph such that every two distinct nodes in the clique are adjacent.

Parameters:

  • G (NetworkX graph) – The graph on which to check the clique nodes.

  • clique_nodes (list) – List of nodes that form a clique, as determined by the given sampler.

Returns:

is_clique – True if clique_nodes forms a clique.

Return type:

bool

Example

This example checks two sets of nodes, both derived from a single Chimera unit cell, for an independent set. The first set is the horizontal tile’s nodes; the second has nodes from the horizontal and verical tiles.

>>> import dwave_networkx as dnx
>>> G = dnx.chimera_graph(1, 1, 4)
>>> dnx.is_clique(G, [0, 1, 2, 3])
False
>>> dnx.is_clique(G, [0, 4])
True
