Cubic graphs

Minibaum is a generator for connected cubic graphs, but can be restricted to generating only graphs that have a fixed minimal girth or are bipartite.

The algorithms used in the generator are described in:

  • G. Brinkmann, Fast generation of cubic graphs, Journal of Graph Theory, 23(2):139-149, 1996.

The generator can be downloaded here and a short manual can be found here. Minibaum has been tested on Linux and Mac OS X.

Installation instructions:

  • Compile minibaum using "cc -O4 minibaum5.c -o minibaum5".

The number of cubic graphs can be found here.

Note: A significantly faster generator called snarkhunter is available for the generation of cubic graphs with girth at least 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 and for the generation of snarks.
