1514:, "dashes have a slightly more emphatic feel, making the reader focus on this information". I'm not convinced that adding additional emphasis to these glosses is desirable here. Also, whatever is done to the definition of giant component should certainly be done to the definition of percolation threshold (because those two parts of the sentence are parallel), and I'm not convinced that it's a good idea to have sentences with more than one parenthetical clause (it makes the structure look confused and cumbersome). — 318: 308: 287: 254: 490: 21: 746:
connected components deserve their own articles: they are fundamental, important, have plenty of algorithmic depth, etc. And while connected components are reasonably intuitive and natural, strongly connected components require more care to define and use; including that material here would necessarily make it shorter and harder to understand while also confusing readers who only care about the undirected case. —

But instead, if you require that there is both a path from v1 to v2 and a path from v2 to v1, then you do get a nice partition of the vertices into 2005:
yet included in a component, and the more precise part of the reference is formatted as a flow chart at a much lower level of detail than would typically be used now, so I wanted to phrase it in a safe way that would allow for the possibility of some of those low-level details being different in an inessential way. —

neither does GA criterion 1a). An undergraduate CS student level is a good target for much of this material; at least, for the material in the definition and algorithms sections. The number of components and random graphs sections may need to be a little more advanced, maybe an undergraduate math student level. —

0" really conveys the intended meaning, because maybe that would allow us to set epsilon=1/n? That's fixing it, isn't it? In fact this sort of choice of epsilon to be a function of n rather than a value independent of n is commonly done (with other functions than 1/n), in studying the transition area
1807:
Not anywhere near as much as finite graphs, definitely, to the point where a lot of references are sloppy and make certain claims as being true for all graphs when really they're true only for finite graphs and require more care for infinite graphs. That's true in many of our Knowledge articles, too.

be merged here. I strongly disagree. We could perhaps use an article that would survey various notions of components in graph theory (connected components and biconnected components of undirected graphs, strongly connected components of directed graphs, etc) but both connected components and strongly

at least tries to show off something of how it works but fails to provide a non-trivial test case (one where a top-down scan has to merge what it thinks are multiple components). And I think the use of the 8-neighborhood instead of the 4-neighborhood in the other ones may be unnecessarily confusing.
2004:
It was intended primarily as a way of giving some history: that the algorithm was already well known in 1973, and therefore presumably invented significantly earlier. It was "essentially this algorithm" because the text of the reference is a little vague about how to find the next vertex that is not
932:
The Algorithms section talks about amortized O(|V|) deletion of edges in disjoint-set data structure. Amortized constant time per edge delete can be achieved in disjoint-set while still maintaning the same time complexity of the other operations. Construction of such a data structure is described in

I don't have any complaints so far. But if you see something that you think could be understandable for someone with your level of technical background, but isn't, please let me know; some of this material is unavoidably technical but I don't want it to be technical when it doesn't have to be (and

The graph has exactly three components, in exactly the sense of the word "component" used in this article. There is no other number of components that it could have. Qualifiers do not help make the statement more true. Adding qualifiers creates the sense that the qualifiers are added for a reason,
1822:
Makes sense. I have a conceptual question if you don't mind: is the notion of an infinite graph, treated as an object in its own right, ever useful in your experience/research? Most of the graph theory concepts I know of can be sensibly applied to countably infinite graphs, although connectedness
1528:
This is true in isolation and is fine throughout the article, but in this instance it is part of a list. (Indeed the "incidence of" groups implies the commas are parenthetical and not in a list, but this is only confirmed in the second "of" (for a percolation threshold), which means that a reader
1623:
I'd be a bit more explicit that the components are disjoint, or we're just stating something obvious; also, "three components" is stated in the caption. Maybe something like "For instance, the three components of the graph in the first illustration are disjoint, and together constitute the whole
907:
I didn't mean it in any standard formal sense, just as a way of identifying subsets of vertices. Define a collection of disjoint subsets of vertices, call them "layers", order them into a sequence, and put a directed edge between two vertices if they are in two layers that are consecutive in the
1859:
Do you mean, have I ever used the concept in my own research? Or do you mean, does my experience lead me to believe that it's a worthwhile concept to explore? It would be difficult to do without the infinite grid graphs and their relatives; they've come up repeatedly as an organizing tool in my

Hi, I'll take this one up. A cursory look through the article reveals it's in good shape. For reference, I know graph theory concepts that would be found in a typical undergrad computer science sequence. Any edits I make to the article will be minor (and not something I'll be a stickler on).
955:
The term "connected component" does however appear a lot in computer science literature, from what I've seen online. However, this is more of a math article than it is a compsci one, so I would argue the definition and use of the term seen most in Graph Theory texts would be more suitable.
1767:
I think it is a little imprecise. I meant "connected components as defined for topological spaces", with "topological" modifying the noun phrase "connected components", rather than "components that are topologically connected", with "topologically" modifying the adjective "connected".
1671:
I'm confused. Is the "For instance" sentence an example of the definition of component instead of the immediately preceding sentence? If so, I'd remove "For instance" entirely and maybe connect it to the next sentence with a semicolon, to show the natural connection between the ideas.
933:

1-delta". The wrong order is something like "forall delta: exists N: for all epsilon: forall n: ..." Delta and N aren't even explicit in the text but are implied by the wording "arbitrarily close to one for sufficiently large values". Anyway, I'm not sure "a fixed epsilon:
1440:, or something else? Algorithmically, biconnected and strongly connected are a lot closer to each other than they are to the components of this article. Knuth would argue (and has, recently) that the correct analogy from connected components of undirected graphs is to 2181:
The source had a line or two about this, so I added a line here based on that. That's one reason but not the only reason. Certain kinds of hierarchical image representations, for instance, might allow fast sequential access but not fast random access to the pixels.
1860:
papers despite those papers mostly being about finite things. So yes, infinite graphs are useful. I've only rarely studied infinite graphs directly in my own research; an exception is the paper "Combinatorics and geometry of finite and infinite squaregraphs". —
2650:
I think someone else must have added that phrasing, so I can only speculate on the intended meaning. I agree that it is confusing, and unnecessary. I just removed the "=y(np)" part. I don't think we need to be explicitly told that it only depends on

graph is a subgraph in which for any two vertices v1, v2 in this subgraph there is a path from v1 to v2 or there is a path from v1 to v2, and to which (subgraph) no more vertices or edges (from the larger graph) can be added while preserving its
1686:
I moved the "for instance" sentence earlier in the paragraph, to make clearer that what it is an example of is the definition in the first sentence, and not so much the additional properties in the later sentences of the paragraph.
1473:
So this is intended as a summary (as everything in the lead should be a summary) of the last two lines of the "Definitions and examples" section? It would have to be very brief to summarize those lines rather than repeating them.
1897:"The same number arises in other ways in graph theory as well." Specify number of components so it's not confused with the rank of the graph; can replace "Numbers of components plays" later with "This number plays" if wanted 207: 2045:
Well, I can see that this is somewhat redundant, but we somehow need to disambiguate "objects" meaning things that are visible in the image from "objects" meaning data in the computer code for processing the image.

of directed graphs. Another concept frequently used for directed graphs and also analogous in some ways are the components of a directed graph obtained by forgetting the directions and using undirected components.

Indeed it's a question of order of two limit processes, hence why I thought it'd be easiest to just say "choose epsilon first." But I agree it's distracting to mention at the beginning, "choose epsilon :

Fair point; maybe "Similar concepts" or "Similar concepts accounting for additional structure". My immediate reaction to the lead sentence was generalizing the idea to other types of graphs.
374: 1002: 2843: 675: 1642:
How does it suggest that? We're explicitly considering examples of this rule ("For instance"). In any case, the disjoint part should be mentioned, or else the statement feels vacuous.
2773:"allows additional processing", since you immediately describe the processing afterward and it's clear that it's on the identified components. I'll promote after these are addressed. 1436:
Is it really "the" analogous concept? Turn it around: if you're seeking the analogous concept to strongly connected components in undirected graphs, would it be connected components,
1432:
Would it be fair to include something like "the analogous concept for directed graphs is called a strongly connected component" somewhere, perhaps at the end of the first paragraph?

and then try to take the limit. You can define a limit that way, but the thing that you want to be true with high probability will not actually be true in that limit. —
2300: 2833: 1095: 98: 2848: 1628:
Writing it that way would suggest, incorrectly, that it's somehow possible for other examples to have components that are not disjoint, or do not cover the graph. —

I'd specify "linear time in the number of vertices" to ensure it's not confused as linear in component count. ("sublinear time algorithms ... " later is clear)

rather than being completely redundant, and therefore suggest that without the qualifier there might be some other number of components, which is false. —
1571:
It's not actually linear in the number of vertices. Linear time always means, linear in the total size of the input, and here that means vertices+edges. —
2858: 1349: 637: 364: 133: 1788:
I wouldn't call this a "representation" per se, since information about vertices of degree two are lost in the topological setting. Maybe "considering"?

A component, by definition is a connected subgraph of a graph, the term connected component is redundant, and does not appear in most texts.
