For a undirected graph with tree characteristics, we can choose any node as the root. The result graph is then a rooted tree. Among all possible rooted trees, those with minimum height are called minimum height trees (MHTs). Given such a graph, write a function to find all the MHTs and return a list of their root labels.
Format
The graph contains n
nodes which are labeled from 0
to n - 1
. You will be given the number n
and a list of undirected edges
(each edge is a pair of labels).
You can assume that no duplicate edges will appear in edges
. Since all edges are undirected, [0, 1]
is the same as [1, 0]
and thus will not appear together in edges
.
Example 1:
Given n = 4
, edges = [[1, 0], [1, 2], [1, 3]]
0 | 1 / \ 2 3
return [1]
Example 2:
Given n = 6
, edges = [[0, 3], [1, 3], [2, 3], [4, 3], [5, 4]]
0 1 2 \ | / 3 | 4 | 5
return [3, 4]
Note:
(1) According to the definition of tree on Wikipedia: “a tree is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by exactly one path. In other words, any connected graph without simple cycles is a tree.”
(2) The height of a rooted tree is the number of edges on the longest downward path between the root and a leaf.
思路一:
这个思路实际上是一个 BFS 思路。和常见的从根节点进行 BFS 不同,这里从叶子节点开始进行 BFS。
所有入度(即相连边数)为 1 的节点即是叶子节点。找高度最小的节点,即找离所有叶子节点最远的节点,也即找最中心的节点。
找最中心的节点的思路很简单:
- 每次去掉当前图的所有叶子节点,重复此操作直到只剩下最后的根。
class Solution {
public:
vector<int> findMinHeightTrees(int n, vector<pair<int, int>>& edges) {
vector<unordered_set<int>> adj(n);
for(pair<int,int>p:edges)
{
adj[p.first].insert(p.second);
adj[p.second].insert(p.first);
}
vector<int> current;
if(n==1)
{
current.push_back(0);
return current;
}
for(int i=0;i<adj.size();i++)
{
if(adj[i].size()==1)
{
current.push_back(i);
}
}
while(true)
{
vector<int> next;
for(int node:current)
{
for(int neighbor:adj[node])
{
adj[neighbor].erase(node);
if(adj[neighbor].size()==1)
next.push_back(neighbor);
}
}
if(next.empty())
return current;
current=next;
}
}
};
