networkx.mixing_expansion

networkx.mixing_expansion(G, S, T=None, weight=None)[source]

Returns the mixing expansion between two node sets.

The mixing expansion is the quotient of the cut size and twice the number of edges in the graph. [1]

Parameters:

G : NetworkX graph

S : sequence

A sequence of nodes in G.

T : sequence

A sequence of nodes in G.

weight : object

Edge attribute key to use as weight. If not specified, edges have weight one.

Returns:

number

The mixing expansion between the two sets S and T.
