Suppose are you given an undirected graph G = (V, E) along with three distinct designated vertices u, v, and w. Describe and analyze a polynomial time algorithm that determines whether or not there is a simple path from u to w that passes through v. [Hint: By definition, each vertex of G must appear in the path at most once.]
Given a directed graph G(V, E), find an O(|V | + |E|) algorithm that deletes at most half of its edges so that the resulting graph doesn’t contain any directed cycles.
Also follow up with proof of correctness.
Prove that in a breadth-first search on a undirected graph G, every edge iseither a tree edge or a cross edge, where x is neither an ancestor nor descendant of y, in cross edge (x, y).
