Day 07Part 06- Examples based on Bipartite graph and Complete bipartite graph.
A Bipartite Graph is a graph whose vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets such that no two vertices within the same set are adjacent. A Complete Bipartite Graph is a special type of bipartite graph where every vertex from one set is connected to every vertex in the other set.

Example 1: Checking If a Graph is Bipartite
Graph:
Consider a graph with vertices V = {A, B, C, D} and edges E = {(A, C), (A, D), (B, C), (B, D)}.
Solution:
-
Divide the vertices into two sets:
-
Set 1: {A, B}
-
Set 2: {C, D}
-
-
Each edge connects a vertex in Set 1 to a vertex in Set 2 (i.e., no two vertices in the same set are adjacent).
-
Since this condition is satisfied, the graph is bipartite.
Example 2: Complete Bipartite Graph (K₃,₄)
A Complete Bipartite Graph Kₘ,ₙ has two sets of vertices with m and n vertices, where every vertex in one set is connected to all vertices in the other set.
Graph:
Consider K₃,₄, with two sets:
-
Set X: {A, B, C} (3 vertices)
-
Set Y: {D, E, F, G} (4 vertices)
Edges:
Each vertex from Set X connects to all vertices in Set Y:
-
A → {D, E, F, G}
-
B → {D, E, F, G}
-
C → {D, E, F, G}
Since every vertex from one set is connected to all vertices of the other set, this is a Complete Bipartite Graph.
Key Points:
A graph is bipartite if it can be colored using two colors without any adjacent nodes sharing the same color.
A complete bipartite graph Kₘ,ₙ connects every vertex in one set to every vertex in the other set.
