Find K vertices in the graph which are connected to at least one of remaining vertices
Given a connected graph with N vertices. The task is to select k(k must be less than or equals to n/2, not necessarily minimum) vertices from the graph such that all these selected vertices are connected to at least one of the non selected vertex. In case of multiple answers print any one of them.
Examples:
Input :
Output : 1
Vertex 1 is connected to all other non selected vertices. Here
{1, 2}, {2, 3}, {3, 4}, {1, 3}, {1, 4}, {2, 4} are also the valid answersInput :
Output : 1 3
Vertex 1, 3 are connected to all other non selected vertices. {2, 4} is also a valid answer.
Efficient Approach: An efficient way is to find vertices which are even level and odd level using simple dfs or bfs function. Then if the vertices at odd level are less than the vertices at even level then print odd level vertices. Otherwise, print even level vertices.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
C++
// C++ program to find K vertices in // the graph which are connected to at // least one of remaining vertices #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; #define N 200005 // To store graph int n, m, vis[N]; vector< int > gr[N]; vector< int > v[2]; // Function to add edge void add_edges( int x, int y) { gr[x].push_back(y); gr[y].push_back(x); } // Function to find level of each node void dfs( int x, int state) { // Push the vertex in respected level v[state].push_back(x); // Make vertex visited vis[x] = 1; // Traverse for all it's child nodes for ( auto i : gr[x]) if (vis[i] == 0) dfs(i, state ^ 1); } // Function to print vertices void Print_vertices() { // If odd level vertices are less if (v[0].size() < v[1].size()) { for ( auto i : v[0]) cout << i << " " ; } // If even level vertices are less else { for ( auto i : v[1]) cout << i << " " ; } } // Driver code int main() { int n = 4, m = 3; // Add edges add_edges(1, 2); add_edges(2, 3); add_edges(3, 4); // Function call dfs(1, 0); Print_vertices(); return 0; } |

Time Complexity : O(V+E)
Where V is the number of vertices and E is the number of edges in the graph.
