Given an array arr[][] which contains the edges of a graph to be used to construct an undirected graph G with N nodes, the task is to find the maximum component size in the graph after each edge is added while constructing the graph.

Examples: 

Input: N = 4, arr[][] = {{1, 2}, {3, 4}, {2, 3}} 
Output: 2 2 4 
Explanation: 
Initially, the graph has 4 individual nodes 1, 2, 3 and 4. 
After the first edge is added : 1 – 2, 3, 4 -> maximum component size = 2 
After the second edge is added : 1 – 2, 3 – 4 -> maximum component size = 2 
After the third edge is added : 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 -> maximum component size = 4

Input: N = 4, arr[][] = {{2, 3}, {1, 2}, {1, 5}, {2, 4}} 
Output: 2 3 4 5 
 

Naive Approach: The naive approach for this problem is to add the edges sequentially and at each step apply depth-first search algorithm to find the size of the largest component. 

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program to find the
// maximum comake_paironent size
// after addition of each
// edge to the graph
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
 
using namespace std;
 
// Function to perform
// Depth First Search
// on the given graph
int dfs(int u, int visited[],
        vector<int>* adj)
{
    // Mark visited
    visited[u] = 1;
    int size = 1;
 
    // Add each child's
    // comake_paironent size
    for (auto child : adj[u]) {
        if (!visited[child])
            size += dfs(child,
                        visited, adj);
    }
    return size;
}
 
// Function to find the maximum
// comake_paironent size
// after addition of each
// edge to the graph
void maxSize(vector<pair<int, int> > e,
             int n)
{
    // Graph in the adjacency
    // list format
    vector<int> adj[n];
 
    // Visited array
    int visited[n];
 
    vector<int> answer;
 
    // At each step, add a new
    // edge and apply dfs on all
    // the nodes to find the maximum
    // comake_paironent size
    for (auto edge : e) {
 
        // Add this edge to undirected graph
        adj[edge.first - 1].push_back(
            edge.second - 1);
        adj[edge.second - 1].push_back(
            edge.first - 1);
 
        // Mark all the nodes
        // as unvisited
        memset(visited, 0,
               sizeof(visited));
 
        int maxAns = 0;
 
        // Loop to perform DFS
        // and find the size
        // of the maximum comake_paironent
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            if (!visited[i]) {
                maxAns = max(maxAns,
                             dfs(i, visited, adj));
            }
        }
        answer.push_back(maxAns);
    }
 
    // Print the answer
    for (auto i : answer) {
        cout << i << " ";
    }
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int N = 4;
    vector<pair<int, int> > E;
    E.push_back(make_pair(1, 2));
    E.push_back(make_pair(3, 4));
    E.push_back(make_pair(2, 3));
 
    maxSize(E, N);
 
    return 0;
}

Time Complexity: O(|E| * N)

Efficient Approach: The idea is to use the concept of Disjoint Set (Union by rank and Path compression) to solve the problem more efficiently. 

  • Each node is initially a disjoint set within itself. As and when the edges are added, the disjoint sets are merged together forming larger components. In the disjoint set implementation, we will make the ranking system based on component sizes i.e when merging of two components is performed the larger component’s root will be considered the final root after the merge operation.
  • One way to find the largest size component after each edge addition is to traverse the size array (size[i] represents the size of the component in which node ‘i’ belongs), but this is inefficient when the number of nodes in the graph is high.
  • A more efficient way is to store the component sizes of all the root in some ordered data structure like sets.
  • When two components are merged, all we need to do is remove the previous component sizes from the set and add the combined component size. So at each step, we would be able to find the largest component size in logarithmic complexity.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ implementation to find the maximum
// component size after the addition of
// each edge to the graph
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>

        return;
 
    // Union by rank, the rank in
    // this case is the size of
    // the component.
    // Smaller size will be
    // merged into larger,
    // so the larger's root
    // will be the final root
    if (size[p] > size[q])

    // because multiple components
    // can have same sizes
