We refer the reader to Subsection Graph Triconnectivity of the graphs chapter for details about the triconnectivity algorithm implemented here, and especially about the meaning of the Splitcomponents function. The triconnectivity algorithm applies to undirected graphs only.
Returns true if and only if G is triconnected. The graph G must be undirected.
The split components of the undirected graph G. These are returned in the form of a sequence of subsets of the vertex-set of G. The graph may be disconnected. The second return value returns the cut vertices and the separation pairs as sequences of one or two vertices respectively.
The cut vertices and/or the separation pairs of the undirected graph G as a sequence of sequences of one and/or two vertices respectively. The graph may be disconnected. The second return value returns the split components of G .

Al: MonStg Default: "PushRelabel"

See Subsection General Vertex and Edge Connectivity in Graphs and Digraphs for details about the algorithms underlying the functions listed below. These functions apply to both undirected and directed graphs.
Al: MonStg Default: "PushRelabel"
If G is an undirected graph, a vertex separator for G is a smallest set of vertices S such that for any u, v∈V(G), every path connecting u and v passes through at least one vertex of S.If G is a directed graph, a vertex separator for G is a smallest set of vertices S such that for any u, v∈V(G), every directed path from u to v passes through at least one vertex of S.
