EdgeSymmetry
​
EdgeSymmetry
[hg]
gives the explicit vertex permutations each hyperedge of the hypergraph hg is symmetric under.
​
​
EdgeSymmetry
[edge,sym]
annotates edge with the edge symmetry sym, for use inside a
Hypergraph
edge specification.
​
Details and Options
▪
For a hyperedge e of arity
𝑘
,
EdgeSymmetry
[hg]
gives a list of
Cycles
objects on
{1,…,𝑘}
, one for each vertex permutation of e that leaves it equivalent to itself.
▪
The list corresponds to hg's
"EdgeSymmetry"
option:
"Unordered"
gives every permutation of the vertices,
"Ordered"
/
"Directed"
gives only the identity, and
"Cyclic"
gives the cyclic rotations.
▪
EdgeSymmetry
[edge,sym]
evaluates immediately to
Annotation
[edge,"EdgeSymmetry"sym]
, so it can be spliced directly into a
Hypergraph
edge list to set the symmetry of one hyperedge, the same way
CyclicEdge
or
DirectedEdge
do.
​
Examples

Basic Examples  
(2)
The symmetry group of a ternary hyperedge with the default
"Unordered"
symmetry is all six permutations of its three vertices:
In[1]:=
EdgeSymmetry

Hypergraph
[{{1,2,3}}]
Out[1]=
{{Cycles[{}],Cycles[{{2,3}}],Cycles[{{1,2}}],Cycles[{{1,2,3}}],Cycles[{{1,3,2}}],Cycles[{{1,3}}]}}
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With
"Ordered"
symmetry, only the identity permutation leaves a hyperedge equivalent to itself:
In[1]:=
EdgeSymmetry

Hypergraph
[{{1,2}},"EdgeSymmetry""Ordered"]
Out[1]=
{{Cycles[{}]}}
