What is an example of a minimal spanning tree?
A minimum spanning tree is a special kind of tree that minimizes the lengths (or “weights”) of the edges of the tree. An example is a cable company wanting to lay line to multiple neighborhoods; by minimizing the amount of cable laid, the cable company will save money.

What is minimum spanning tree of a graph example?
Given a graph G=(V,E), a subgraph of G that is connects all of the vertices and is a tree is called a spanning tree . For example, suppose we start with this graph: We can remove edges until we are left with a tree: the result is a spanning tree. Clearly, a spanning tree will have V-1 edges, like any other tree.
A spanning tree is a subset of Graph G, which has all the vertices covered with minimum possible number of edges. Hence, a spanning tree does not have cycles and it cannot be disconnected.. By this definition, we can draw a conclusion that every connected and undirected Graph G has at least one spanning tree.

MINIMUM SPANNING TREES

Weight of an edge: Weight of an edge is just of the value of the edge or the cost of the edge. For example, a graph representing cities, has the distance between two cites as the edge cost or its weight. Network: A graph with weighted edges is called a network. Spanning Tree: Any tree consisting of edges in the graph G and including all vertices in G is called a spanning tree. Given a network, we should try to connect all the nodes in the nodes in the graph with minimum number of edges, such that the total weight is minimized. To solve this problem, we shall devise an algorithm that converts a network into to tree structures called the minimum spanning tree of the network. Given a network, the edges for the minimum spanning tree are chosen in such a way that: (1) Every node in the network must be included in the spanning tree. (2) The overall edge weight of the spanning tree is the minimum possible that will allow the existence of a path between any 2 nodes in the tree. The two algorithms which are used for finding the minimum spanning tree for a graph are:

1. Kruskal's Algorithm

2. Prim's Algorithm

3. Sollin's Algorithm

KRUSKAL'S ALGORITHM

The Kruskal's algorithm follows greedy approach. At every stage of the solution, it takes that edge which has the minimum cost and builds the minimum spanning tree.

Example:

Consider the above graph. Now let us apply the Kruskal's algorithm to construct a minimum spanning tree. Step 1: Construct a queue with the cost of edges, such that the edges are placed in the queue in the ascending order of the cost as shown.

Queue of edge costs

10 12 14 16 18 22 24 26 28

Step 2:

Create N sets each consisting one node. N is the number of nodes in the graph. Then for the above problem, the sets which will be created are

S1 = {1}

S2 = {2}

S3 = {3}

S4 = {4}

S5 = {5}

S6 = {6}

S7 = {7}

Step 3:

Delete a cost from the queue. Let the nodes associated with that edge be (u,v). Now, 10 is deleted first from the queue. The nodes associated with 10 is (u,v) = (1,6). Check if u and v

belong to the same set or different set. If they belong to the different set then enter that into the

output matrix as shown. Since 1 belongs to S1 and 6 belong to S6, they can be entered into the T matrix. If the nodes belong to the same set, then entering them into the matrix will give an output which may form a cycle. Hence that is avoided. The T matrix has n-1 rows and 2 columns.

T matrix

u v

1 1 6

2 3 4 5 6 After entering them in the T matrix, the sets S1 and S6 are merged.

S8 = {1, 6}

The above process in step 3 is repeated till the queue becomes empty. The solution is derived as shown.

Queue of edge costs

12 14 16 18 22 24 26 28

Delete 12 from the queue. The nodes associated with 12 are (u,v) = (3,4). The node 3 belongs to S3 and node 4 belongs to S4. As they are in different sets, they are entered in the T matrix.

Delete 14 from the queue. The (u,v) = (2,7). 2 belong to S2 and 7 belong to S7. As they belong to different sets, they are entered into the T matrix and the sets S2 and S7 are merged.

Delete 22. The (u,v) = (4, 5). 4 belong to S11 and 5 belong to S5. As they belong to different set, they are entered into the T matrix. The sets S11 and S5 are merged.
