In graph theory and computer science, an adjacency list is a collection of unordered lists used to represent a finite graph. Each list describes the set of neighbors of a vertex in the graph. This is one of several commonly used representations of graphs for use in computer programs.

An adjacency list representation for a graph associates each vertex in the graph with the collection of its neighboring vertices or edges. There are many variations of this basic idea, differing in the details of how they implement the association between vertices and collections, in how they implement the collections, in whether they include both vertices and edges or only vertices as first class objects, and in what kinds of objects are used to represent the vertices and edges.

图的邻接表表示法将图中的每个顶点与其邻接顶点或边的集合关联起来。这个基本思想有许多变体，在如何实现顶点和集合之间的关联，如何实现集合，以及是否包括顶点和边还是只包括顶点作为第一类对象，以及什么类型的对象被用来表示顶点和边的细节上都有所不同。

• An implementation suggested by Guido van Rossum uses a hash table to associate each vertex in a graph with an array of adjacent vertices. In this representation, a vertex may be represented by any hashable object. There is no explicit representation of edges as objects.

 }}</ref> Their representation uses an array indexed by vertex number, in which the array cell for each vertex points to a singly linked list of the neighboring vertices of that vertex. In this representation, the nodes of the singly linked list may be interpreted as edge objects; however, they do not store the full information about each edge (they only store one of the two endpoints of the edge) and in undirected graphs there will be two different linked list nodes for each edge (one within the lists for each of the two endpoints of the edge).

它们的表示使用一个按顶点数索引的数组，其中每个顶点的数组单元格指向该顶点的相邻顶点的单链表。在这种表示中，单链表的节点可以解释为边对象; 然而，它们并不存储关于每条边的完整信息(它们只存储边的两个端点中的一个) ，在无向图 Undirected Graph 中，每条边有两个不同的链表节点(边的两个端点中的每个端点的列表中都有一个)。

• The object oriented incidence list structure suggested by Goodrich and Tamassia has special classes of vertex objects and edge objects. Each vertex object has an instance variable pointing to a collection object that lists the neighboring edge objects. In turn, each edge object points to the two vertex objects at its endpoints. This version of the adjacency list uses more memory than the version in which adjacent vertices are listed directly, but the existence of explicit edge objects allows it extra flexibility in storing additional information about edges.

这个版本的邻接表比直接列出相邻顶点的版本使用更多的内存，但是显示边对象的存在操作可以允许它在存储额外的关于边的信息方面有额外的灵活性。

Operations

操作

The main operation performed by the adjacency list data structure is to report a list of the neighbors of a given vertex. Using any of the implementations detailed above, this can be performed in constant time per neighbor. In other words, the total time to report all of the neighbors of a vertex v is proportional to the degree of v.

邻接表数据结构执行的主要操作是列出给定顶点的邻居列表。使用上面详细说明的任何表示方式，都可以在每个邻居的固定时间内执行。换句话说，列出一个顶点 v 所有邻居的总时间与 v 的度 Degree 成正比。

It is also possible, but not as efficient, to use adjacency lists to test whether an edge exists or does not exist between two specified vertices. In an adjacency list in which the neighbors of each vertex are unsorted, testing for the existence of an edge may be performed in time proportional to the minimum degree of the two given vertices, by using a sequential search through the neighbors of this vertex. If the neighbors are represented as a sorted array, binary search may be used instead, taking time proportional to the logarithm of the degree.

也可以使用邻接列表来测试两个指定顶点之间是否存在边，但效率不高。在一个邻接表中，每个顶点的邻域都是不排序的，通过对该顶点的邻域进行顺序搜索，可以按照给定两个顶点的最小阶数按时间比例进行边的存在性测试。如果邻域被表示为一个排序数组，则可以使用二进制搜索，时间与次数的对数成正比。

Trade-offs

权衡

The main alternative to the adjacency list is the adjacency matrix, a matrix whose rows and columns are indexed by vertices and whose cells contain a Boolean value that indicates whether an edge is present between the vertices corresponding to the row and column of the cell. For a sparse graph (one in which most pairs of vertices are not connected by edges) an adjacency list is significantly more space-efficient than an adjacency matrix (stored as a two-dimensional array): the space usage of the adjacency list is proportional to the number of edges and vertices in the graph, while for an adjacency matrix stored in this way the space is proportional to the square of the number of vertices. However, it is possible to store adjacency matrices more space-efficiently, matching the linear space usage of an adjacency list, by using a hash table indexed by pairs of vertices rather than an array.

邻接表的主要替代方法是邻接矩阵 Adjacency Matrix ，该矩阵的行和列按顶点索引，其单元格包含一个布尔值，该值指示与单元格的行和列对应的顶点之间是否存在边。对于稀疏图 Sparse Graph （大多数顶点对不是由边连接的图），邻接表比邻接矩阵（存储为二维数组）更节省空间：邻接表的空间使用与图中的边和顶点的数量成正比，而对于以这种方式存储的邻接矩阵，其空间与顶点数的平方成正比。然而，通过使用由顶点对索引的哈希表而不是数组，可以更有效地存储邻接矩阵的空间，从而匹配邻接表的线性空间使用。

The other significant difference between adjacency lists and adjacency matrices is in the efficiency of the operations they perform. In an adjacency list, the neighbors of each vertex may be listed efficiently, in time proportional to the degree of the vertex. In an adjacency matrix, this operation takes time proportional to the number of vertices in the graph, which may be significantly higher than the degree. On the other hand, the adjacency matrix allows testing whether two vertices are adjacent to each other in constant time; the adjacency list is slower to support this operation.

邻接表和邻接矩阵之间的另一个显著区别是它们执行操作的效率。在邻接表中，每个顶点的邻居可以有效地列出，在时间上与顶点的程度成正比。在邻接矩阵中，这个操作需要的时间与图中顶点的数量成正比，而顶点的数量可能明显高于度。另一方面，邻接矩阵允许测试两个顶点是否在固定的时间内彼此相邻; 邻接表支持这一操作的速度较慢。

Data structures

数据结构

For use as a data structure, the main alternative to the adjacency list is the adjacency matrix. Because each entry in the adjacency matrix requires only one bit, it can be represented in a very compact way, occupying only 模板:Abs²/8 bytes of contiguous space, where 模板:Abs is the number of vertices of the graph. Besides avoiding wasted space, this compactness encourages locality of reference.

However, for a sparse graph, adjacency lists require less space, because they do not waste any space to represent edges that are not present. Using a naïve array implementation on a 32-bit computer, an adjacency list for an undirected graph requires about 2·(32/8)模板:Abs = 8模板:Abs bytes of space, where 模板:Abs is the number of edges of the graph.

Noting that an undirected simple graph can have at most (模板:Abs²-模板:Abs)/2 ≈ V ² edges, allowing loops, we can let d = 模板:Abs/模板:Abs² denote the density of the graph. Then, 8模板:Abs > 模板:Abs²/8 when 模板:Abs/模板:Abs² > 1/64, that is the adjacency list representation occupies more space than the adjacency matrix representation when d > 1/64. Thus a graph must be sparse enough to justify an adjacency list representation.

Besides the space trade-off, the different data structures also facilitate different operations. Finding all vertices adjacent to a given vertex in an adjacency list is as simple as reading the list. With an adjacency matrix, an entire row must instead be scanned, which takes O(模板:Abs) time. Whether there is an edge between two given vertices can be determined at once with an adjacency matrix, while requiring time proportional to the minimum degree of the two vertices with the adjacency list.
