/**
@defgroup graphs Graph Structures
@ingroup datas
\brief Graph structures implemented in LEMON.

The implementation of combinatorial algorithms heavily relies on
efficient graph implementations. LEMON offers data structures which are
planned to be easily used in an experimental phase of implementation studies,
and thereafter the program code can be made efficient by small modifications.

The most efficient implementation of diverse applications require the
usage of different physical graph implementations. These differences
appear in the size of graph we require to handle, memory or time usage
limitations or in the set of operations through which the graph can be
accessed.  LEMON provides several physical graph structures to meet
the diverging requirements of the possible users.  In order to save on
running time or on memory usage, some structures may fail to provide
some graph features like arc/edge or node deletion.

Alteration of standard containers need a very limited number of
operations, these together satisfy the everyday requirements.
In the case of graph structures, different operations are needed which do
not alter the physical graph, but gives another view. If some nodes or
arcs have to be hidden or the reverse oriented graph have to be used, then
this is the case. It also may happen that in a flow implementation
the residual graph can be accessed by another algorithm, or a node-set
is to be shrunk for another algorithm.
LEMON also provides a variety of graphs for these requirements called
\ref graph_adaptors "graph adaptors". Adaptors cannot be used alone but only
in conjunction with other graph representations.

You are free to use the graph structure that fit your requirements
the best, most graph algorithms and auxiliary data structures can be used
with any graph structure.

/**
@defgroup graph_adaptors Adaptor Classes for Graphs
@ingroup graphs
\brief Adaptor classes for digraphs and graphs

This group contains several useful adaptor classes for digraphs and graphs.

The main parts of LEMON are the different graph structures, generic
graph algorithms, graph concepts, which couple them, and graph
adaptors. While the previous notions are more or less clear, the
latter one needs further explanation. Graph adaptors are graph classes
which serve for considering graph structures in different ways.

A short example makes this much clearer.  Suppose that we have an
instance \c g of a directed graph type, say ListDigraph and an algorithm
\code
template <typename Digraph>
int algorithm(const Digraph&);
\endcode
is needed to run on the reverse oriented graph.  It may be expensive
(in time or in memory usage) to copy \c g with the reversed
arcs.  In this case, an adaptor class is used, which (according
to LEMON \ref concepts::Digraph "digraph concepts") works as a digraph.
The adaptor uses the original digraph structure and digraph operations when
methods of the reversed oriented graph are called.  This means that the adaptor
have minor memory usage, and do not perform sophisticated algorithmic
actions.  The purpose of it is to give a tool for the cases when a
graph have to be used in a specific alteration.  If this alteration is
obtained by a usual construction like filtering the node or the arc set or
considering a new orientation, then an adaptor is worthwhile to use.
To come back to the reverse oriented graph, in this situation
\code
template<typename Digraph> class ReverseDigraph;
\endcode
template class can be used. The code looks as follows
\code
ListDigraph g;
ReverseDigraph<ListDigraph> rg(g);
int result = algorithm(rg);
\endcode
During running the algorithm, the original digraph \c g is untouched.
This techniques give rise to an elegant code, and based on stable
graph adaptors, complex algorithms can be implemented easily.

In flow, circulation and matching problems, the residual
graph is of particular importance. Combining an adaptor implementing
this with shortest path algorithms or minimum mean cycle algorithms,
a range of weighted and cardinality optimization algorithms can be
obtained. For other examples, the interested user is referred to the
detailed documentation of particular adaptors.

The behavior of graph adaptors can be very different. Some of them keep
capabilities of the original graph while in other cases this would be
meaningless. This means that the concepts that they meet depend
on the graph adaptor, and the wrapped graph.
For example, if an arc of a reversed digraph is deleted, this is carried
out by deleting the corresponding arc of the original digraph, thus the
adaptor modifies the original digraph.
However in case of a residual digraph, this operation has no sense.

Let us stand one more example here to simplify your work.
ReverseDigraph has constructor
\code
ReverseDigraph(Digraph& digraph);
\endcode
This means that in a situation, when a <tt>const %ListDigraph&</tt>
reference to a graph is given, then it have to be instantiated with
<tt>Digraph=const %ListDigraph</tt>.
\code
int algorithm1(const ListDigraph& g) {
  ReverseDigraph<const ListDigraph> rg(g);
  return algorithm2(rg);
}
\endcode

values to the nodes and arcs/edges of graphs.

\c EdgeMap), see the \ref graph_concepts "Graph Structure Concepts".
*/

/**
\defgroup map_adaptors Map Adaptors
\ingroup maps
\brief Tools to create new maps from existing ones

This group contains map adaptors that are used to create "implicit"
maps from other maps.

Most of them are \ref concepts::ReadMap "read-only maps".
They can make arithmetic and logical operations between one or two maps
(negation, shifting, addition, multiplication, logical 'and', 'or',
'not' etc.) or e.g. convert a map to another one of different Value type.

The typical usage of this classes is passing implicit maps to
algorithms.  If a function type algorithm is called then the function
type map adaptors can be used comfortable. For example let's see the
usage of map adaptors with the \c graphToEps() function.
\code
  Color nodeColor(int deg) {
    if (deg >= 2) {
      return Color(0.5, 0.0, 0.5);
    } else if (deg == 1) {
      return Color(1.0, 0.5, 1.0);
    } else {
      return Color(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
    }
  }

  Digraph::NodeMap<int> degree_map(graph);

  graphToEps(graph, "graph.eps")
    .coords(coords).scaleToA4().undirected()
    .nodeColors(composeMap(functorToMap(nodeColor), degree_map))
    .run();
\endcode
The \c functorToMap() function makes an \c int to \c Color map from the
\c nodeColor() function. The \c composeMap() compose the \c degree_map
and the previously created map. The composed map is a proper function to
get the color of each node.

The usage with class type algorithms is little bit harder. In this
case the function type map adaptors can not be used, because the
function map adaptors give back temporary objects.
\code
  Digraph graph;

  typedef Digraph::ArcMap<double> DoubleArcMap;
  DoubleArcMap length(graph);
  DoubleArcMap speed(graph);

  typedef DivMap<DoubleArcMap, DoubleArcMap> TimeMap;
  TimeMap time(length, speed);

  Dijkstra<Digraph, TimeMap> dijkstra(graph, time);
  dijkstra.run(source, target);
\endcode
We have a length map and a maximum speed map on the arcs of a digraph.
The minimum time to pass the arc can be calculated as the division of
the two maps which can be done implicitly with the \c DivMap template
class. We use the implicit minimum time map as the length map of the
\c Dijkstra algorithm.

/**
@defgroup max_flow Maximum Flow Algorithms
@ingroup algs
\brief Algorithms for finding maximum flows.

This group contains the algorithms for finding maximum flows and
feasible circulations \ref clrs01algorithms, \ref amo93networkflows.

The \e maximum \e flow \e problem is to find a flow of maximum value between
a single source and a single target. Formally, there is a \f$G=(V,A)\f$
digraph, a \f$cap: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}^+_0\f$ capacity function and
\f$s, t \in V\f$ source and target nodes.
A maximum flow is an \f$f: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}^+_0\f$ solution of the
following optimization problem.

\f[ \max\sum_{sv\in A} f(sv) - \sum_{vs\in A} f(vs) \f]
\f[ \sum_{uv\in A} f(uv) = \sum_{vu\in A} f(vu)
    \quad \forall u\in V\setminus\{s,t\} \f]
\f[ 0 \leq f(uv) \leq cap(uv) \quad \forall uv\in A \f]

LEMON contains several algorithms for solving maximum flow problems:
- \ref EdmondsKarp Edmonds-Karp algorithm
  \ref edmondskarp72theoretical.
- \ref Preflow Goldberg-Tarjan's preflow push-relabel algorithm
  \ref goldberg88newapproach.
- \ref DinitzSleatorTarjan Dinitz's blocking flow algorithm with dynamic trees
  \ref dinic70algorithm, \ref sleator83dynamic.
- \ref GoldbergTarjan !Preflow push-relabel algorithm with dynamic trees
  \ref goldberg88newapproach, \ref sleator83dynamic.

In most cases the \ref Preflow algorithm provides the
fastest method for computing a maximum flow. All implementations
also provide functions to query the minimum cut, which is the dual
problem of maximum flow.

\ref Circulation is a preflow push-relabel algorithm implemented directly
for finding feasible circulations, which is a somewhat different problem,
but it is strongly related to maximum flow.

*/

/**
@defgroup min_cost_flow_algs Minimum Cost Flow Algorithms
@ingroup algs

\brief Algorithms for finding minimum cost flows and circulations.

This group contains the algorithms for finding minimum cost flows and
circulations \ref amo93networkflows. For more information about this
problem and its dual solution, see \ref min_cost_flow
"Minimum Cost Flow Problem".

LEMON contains several algorithms for this problem.
 - \ref NetworkSimplex Primal Network Simplex algorithm with various
   pivot strategies \ref dantzig63linearprog, \ref kellyoneill91netsimplex.
 - \ref CostScaling Cost Scaling algorithm based on push/augment and
   relabel operations \ref goldberg90approximation, \ref goldberg97efficient,
   \ref bunnagel98efficient.
 - \ref CapacityScaling Capacity Scaling algorithm based on the successive
   shortest path method \ref edmondskarp72theoretical.
 - \ref CycleCanceling Cycle-Canceling algorithms, two of which are
   strongly polynomial \ref klein67primal, \ref goldberg89cyclecanceling.

In general, \ref NetworkSimplex and \ref CostScaling are the most efficient
implementations.
\ref NetworkSimplex is usually the fastest on relatively small graphs (up to
several thousands of nodes) and on dense graphs, while \ref CostScaling is
typically more efficient on large graphs (e.g. hundreds of thousands of
nodes or above), especially if they are sparse.
However, other algorithms could be faster in special cases.
For example, if the total supply and/or capacities are rather small,
\ref CapacityScaling is usually the fastest algorithm (without effective scaling).

These classes are intended to be used with integer-valued input data
(capacities, supply values, and costs), except for \ref CapacityScaling,
which is capable of handling real-valued arc costs (other numerical
data are required to be integer).

/**
@defgroup min_cut Minimum Cut Algorithms
@ingroup algs

\brief Algorithms for finding minimum cut in graphs.

This group contains the algorithms for finding minimum cut in graphs.

The \e minimum \e cut \e problem is to find a non-empty and non-complete
\f$X\f$ subset of the nodes with minimum overall capacity on
outgoing arcs. Formally, there is a \f$G=(V,A)\f$ digraph, a
\f$cap: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}^+_0\f$ capacity function. The minimum
cut is the \f$X\f$ solution of the next optimization problem:

\f[ \min_{X \subset V, X\not\in \{\emptyset, V\}}
    \sum_{uv\in A: u\in X, v\not\in X}cap(uv) \f]

LEMON contains several algorithms related to minimum cut problems:

- \ref HaoOrlin "Hao-Orlin algorithm" for calculating minimum cut
  in directed graphs.
- \ref NagamochiIbaraki "Nagamochi-Ibaraki algorithm" for
  calculating minimum cut in undirected graphs.
- \ref GomoryHu "Gomory-Hu tree computation" for calculating
  all-pairs minimum cut in undirected graphs.

see the \ref max_flow "maximum flow problem".

/**
@defgroup min_mean_cycle Minimum Mean Cycle Algorithms
@ingroup algs
\brief Algorithms for finding minimum mean cycles.

This group contains the algorithms for finding minimum mean cycles
\ref amo93networkflows, \ref karp78characterization.

The \e minimum \e mean \e cycle \e problem is to find a directed cycle
of minimum mean length (cost) in a digraph.
The mean length of a cycle is the average length of its arcs, i.e. the
ratio between the total length of the cycle and the number of arcs on it.

This problem has an important connection to \e conservative \e length
\e functions, too. A length function on the arcs of a digraph is called
conservative if and only if there is no directed cycle of negative total
length. For an arbitrary length function, the negative of the minimum
cycle mean is the smallest \f$\epsilon\f$ value so that increasing the
arc lengths uniformly by \f$\epsilon\f$ results in a conservative length
function.

LEMON contains three algorithms for solving the minimum mean cycle problem:
- \ref KarpMmc Karp's original algorithm \ref karp78characterization.
- \ref HartmannOrlinMmc Hartmann-Orlin's algorithm, which is an improved
  version of Karp's algorithm \ref hartmann93finding.
- \ref HowardMmc Howard's policy iteration algorithm
  \ref dasdan98minmeancycle, \ref dasdan04experimental.

In practice, the \ref HowardMmc "Howard" algorithm turned out to be by far the
most efficient one, though the best known theoretical bound on its running
time is exponential.
Both \ref KarpMmc "Karp" and \ref HartmannOrlinMmc "Hartmann-Orlin" algorithms
run in time O(ne) and use space O(n<sup>2</sup>+e), but the latter one is
typically faster due to the applied early termination scheme.

/**
@defgroup matching Matching Algorithms
@ingroup algs
\brief Algorithms for finding matchings in graphs and bipartite graphs.

This group contains the algorithms for calculating
matchings in graphs and bipartite graphs. The general matching problem is
finding a subset of the edges for which each node has at most one incident
edge.

There are several different algorithms for calculate matchings in
graphs.  The matching problems in bipartite graphs are generally
easier than in general graphs. The goal of the matching optimization
can be finding maximum cardinality, maximum weight or minimum cost
matching. The search can be constrained to find perfect or
maximum cardinality matching.
