Hi,
please I need help with finding the minimal paths and cuts of the attached figure.

Here for the cuts I found: {1,6}, {7,3}, {6,4,2}, {2,5,7}
for the paths I get: {6,7},{1,2,3},{1,2,5,7},{1,4,7}
Do i miss some paths or cut please?

Also i cannot find the an expression for the structure function, using minimal paths and cuts.

Thank you

I am pretty sure there should be ten paths. What do the labels mean? Are they just labels for the edges or distances?
 
hi,
the labels are components of the system with their logical connections. how do you know , i need to have 10 paths?
 
The graph is strongly connected, there is a path between each two vertices. There are five vertices, so there are 4 paths from an arbitrary vertex to another (not including paths to itself), then from another arbitrary vertex there are 3 paths to other vertices not including the first counted path, etc. 4+3+2+1= 10.
 
Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
