The '''graph isomorphism problem''' is the [[computational problem]] of determining whether two finite [[graph (mathematics)|graph]]s are [[graph isomorphism|isomorphic]].
 
Besides its practical importance, the graph isomorphism problem is a curiosity in [[computational complexity theory]] as it is one of a very small number of problems belonging to [[NP (complexity)|NP]] neither known to be solvable in [[polynomial time]] nor [[NP-complete]]: it is one of only 12 such problems listed by {{harvtxt|Garey|Johnson|1979}}, and one of only two of that list whose complexity remains unresolved (the other being [[integer factorization]]).<ref>The latest one resolved was [[minimum-weight triangulation]], proved to be NP-complete in 2006. {{citation|first1=Wolfgang|last1=Mulzer|first2=Günter|last2=Rote|title=Minimum-weight triangulation is NP-hard|journal=Journal of the ACM|volume=55|issue=2|doi=10.1145/1346330.1346336|year=2008|pages=1|arxiv=cs.CG/0601002}}.</ref> {{As of|2008}} the best algorithm (Luks, 1983) has run time 2<sup>O(√(''n''&nbsp;log&nbsp;''n''))</sup> for graphs with ''n'' vertices.<ref name="Johnson 2005">{{harvnb|Johnson|2005}}</ref><ref>{{Harvtxt|Babai|Codenotti|2008}}.</ref>
 
It is known that the graph isomorphism problem is in the [[low hierarchy]] of [[class NP]], which implies that it is not NP-complete unless the [[polynomial time hierarchy]] collapses to its second level.<ref>[[Uwe Schöning]], "Graph isomorphism is in the low hierarchy", Proceedings of the 4th Annual [[Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science]], 1987, 114&ndash;124; also: ''Journal of Computer and System Sciences'', vol. 37 (1988), 312&ndash;323</ref>
 
At the same time, isomorphism for many special classes of graphs can be solved in polynomial time, and in practice graph isomorphism can often be solved efficiently.<ref>{{harvnb|McKay|1981}}</ref>
 
This problem is a special case of the [[subgraph isomorphism problem]],<ref>{{harvtxt|Ullman|1976}}.</ref> which is known to be [[NP-complete]]. It is also known to be a special case of the [[Abelian group|non-abelian]] [[hidden subgroup problem]] over the [[symmetric group]].<ref>{{cite arxiv|eprint=quant-ph/0501056v3|author1=[[Cris Moore|Cristopher Moore]]|author2=Alexander Russell|last3=Schulman | first3=Leonard J.|title=The Symmetric Group Defies Strong Fourier Sampling: Part I|class=quant-ph|year=2005}}</ref>
 
==State of the art==
The best current theoretical algorithm is due to [[Eugene Luks]] (1983), and is based on the earlier work by Luks (1981), Babai & Luks (1982), combined with a ''subfactorial'' algorithm due to Zemlyachenko (1982). The algorithm relies on the [[classification of finite simple groups]]. Without CFSG, a slightly weaker bound
2<sup>O(√''n''&nbsp;log<sup>2</sup>&nbsp;''n'')</sup> was obtained first for [[strongly regular graph]]s by [[László Babai]] (1980), and then extended to general graphs by Babai & Luks (1982).  Improvement of the exponent √''n'' is a major open problem; for strongly regular graphs this was done by {{Harvtxt|Spielman|1996}}.  For [[hypergraph]]s of bounded rank, a [[Sub-exponential time|subexponential]] upper bound matching the case of graphs, was recently obtained by {{Harvtxt|Babai|Codenotti|2008}}. 
 
On a side note, the graph isomorphism problem is computationally equivalent to the problem of computing the [[automorphism group]] of a graph, and is weaker than the [[permutation group]] isomorphism problem, and the permutation group intersection problem.  For the latter two problems, Babai, Kantor and Luks (1983) obtained complexity bounds similar to that for the graph isomorphism.<ref>László Babai, [[William Kantor]], Eugene Luks, [http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1382437.1382817 Computational complexity and the classification of finite simple groups], Proc. 24th FOCS (1983), pp. 162-171.</ref>
 
There are several competing practical algorithms for graph isomorphism, due to {{harvtxt|McKay|1981}}, {{harvtxt|Schmidt|Druffel|1976}}, {{harvtxt|Ullman|1976}}, etc. While they seem to perform well on [[random graphs]], a major drawback of these algorithms is their exponential time performance in the [[Best, worst and average case|worst case]].<ref>P.

== Complexity class GI ==<!-- [[GI]] links and [[GI (complexity)]] redirects to this section -->
Since the graph isomorphism problem is neither known to be NP-complete nor to be tractable, researchers have sought to gain insight into the problem by defining a new class '''GI''', the set of problems with a [[polynomial-time Turing reduction]] to the graph isomorphism problem.<ref>{{harvnb|Booth|Colbourn|1977}}; {{harvnb|Köbler|Schöning|Torán|1993}}</ref> If in fact the graph isomorphism problem is solvable in polynomial time, '''GI''' would equal '''[[P (complexity)|P]]'''.
 
As is common for [[complexity class]]es within the [[polynomial time hierarchy]], a problem is called '''GI-hard''' if there is a [[polynomial-time Turing reduction]] from any problem in '''GI''' to that problem, i.e.,  a polynomial-time solution to a GI-hard problem would yield a polynomial-time solution to the graph isomorphism problem (and so all problems in '''GI''').  A problem <math>X</math> is called [[complete (complexity)|complete]] for '''GI''', or '''GI-complete''', if it is both GI-hard and a polynomial-time solution to the GI problem would yield a polynomial-time solution to <math>X</math>.
 
The graph isomorphism problem is contained in both '''NP''' and co-'''[[AM (complexity)|AM]]'''. GI is contained in and [[low (complexity)|low]] for [[Parity P]], as well as contained in the potentially much smaller class [http://qwiki.stanford.edu/wiki/Complexity_Zoo:S#spp SPP].<ref>{{harvnb|Köbler|Schöning|Torán|1992}}; {{harvnb|Arvind|Kurur|2006}}</ref> That it lies in Parity P means that the graph isomorphism problem is no harder than determining whether a polynomial-time [[nondeterministic Turing machine]] has an even or odd number of accepting paths. GI is also contained in and low for [[ZPP (complexity)|ZPP]]<sup>NP</sup>.<ref>{{harvnb|Arvind|Köbler|2000}}</ref> This essentially means that an efficient [[Las Vegas algorithm]] with access to an NP [[oracle machine|oracle]] can solve graph isomorphism so easily that it gains no power from being given the ability to do so in constant time.
 
===GI-complete and GI-hard problems===
 
====Isomorphism of other objects====
There are a number of classes of mathematical objects for which the problem of isomorphism is a GI-complete problem. A number of them are graphs endowed with additional properties or restrictions:<ref name=zkt>{{harvnb|Zemlyachenko|Korneenko|Tyshkevich|1985}}</ref>

====GI-complete classes of graphs====
A class of graphs is called GI-complete if recognition of isomorphism for graphs from this subclass is a GI-complete problem. The following classes are GI-complete:<ref name=zkt/>
*[[connected graph]]s<ref name=zkt/><!-- better to be replaced by original ref-->
*graphs of [[diameter (graph theory)|diameter]] 2 and [[radius (graph theory)|radius]] 1<ref name=zkt/>

*[[polytopal graph]]s of general, [[simple polytope|simple]], and [[simplicial polytope|simplicial]] [[convex polytope]]s in arbitrary dimensions<ref name=kaibel/>
{{Expand list|date=August 2008}}
Many classes of digraphs are also GI-complete.
 
====Other GI-complete problems====
There are other nontrivial GI-complete problems in addition to isomorphism problems.
*The recognition of self-complementarity of a graph or digraph.<ref>Colbourn M.J., [[Charles Colbourn|Colbourn Ch.J.]] "Graph isomorphism and self-complementary graphs", ''[[SIGACT News]]'', 1978, vol. 10, no. 1, 25&ndash;29.</ref>
*A [[clique problem]] for a class of so-called ''M''-graphs. It is shown that finding an isomorphism for ''n''-vertex graphs is equivalent to finding an ''n''-clique in an ''M''-graph of size ''n''<sup>2</sup>. This fact is interesting because the problem of finding an (''n''&nbsp;&minus;&nbsp;''ε'')-clique in a ''M''-graph  of size ''n''<sup>2</sup> is NP-complete for arbitrarily small positive ε.<ref>{{harvnb|Kozen|1978}}.</ref>
*The problem of homeomorphism of 2-complexes.<ref>[[John Shawe-Taylor|J. Shawe-Taylor]], T.Pisanski, "Homeomorphism of 2-Complexes is Graph Isomorphism Complete", ''[[SIAM Journal on Computing]],'' 23  (1994) 120 &ndash; 132
.</ref>
 
====GI-hard problems====
*The problem of counting the number of isomorphisms between two graphs is polynomial-time equivalent to the problem of telling whether even one exists.<ref>R. Mathon, "A note on the graph isomorphism counting problem", ''[[Information Processing Letters]],'' 8 (1979) pp. 131&ndash;132; {{harvnb|Johnson|2005}}.</ref>
*The problem of deciding whether two [[convex polytope]]s given by either the [[V-description]] or [[H-description]] are projectively or affinely isomorphic. The latter means existence of a projective or affine map between the spaces that contain the two polytopes (not necessarily of the same dimension) which induces a bijection between the polytopes.<ref name=kaibel/>
 
==Program checking==
[[Manuel Blum|Blum]] and Kannan<ref>[ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu/pub/kannan/jacm.ps.gz Designing Programs that Check their Work]</ref> have shown a program checker for  graph isomorphism. Suppose ''P'' is a claimed polynomial-time procedure that checks if two graphs are isomorphic, but it is not trusted. To check if ''G'' and ''H'' are isomorphic:
 
* Ask ''P'' whether ''G'' and ''H'' are isomorphic.
** If the answer is "yes':
*** Attempt to construct an isomorphism using ''P'' as subroutine. Mark a vertex ''u'' in ''G'' and ''v'' in ''H'', and modify the graphs to make them distinctive (with a small local change). Ask ''P'' if the modified graphs are isomorphic. If no, change ''v'' to a different vertex. Continue searching.
*** Either the isomorphism will be found (and can be verified), or ''P'' will contradict itself.
** If the answer is "no":
*** Perform the following 100 times. Choose randomly ''G'' or ''H'', and randomly permute its vertices. Ask ''P'' if the graph is isomorphic to ''G'' and ''H''. (As in [[AM (complexity)|AM]] protocol for graph nonisomorphism).
*** If any of the tests are failed, judge ''P'' as invalid program. Otherwise, answer "no".
 
This procedure is polynomial-time and gives the correct answer if ''P'' is a correct program for graph isomorphism. If ''P'' is not a correct program, but answers correctly on ''G'' and ''H'', the checker will either give the correct answer, or detect invalid behaviour of ''P''.
If ''P'' is not a correct program, and answers incorrectly on ''G'' and ''H'', the checker will detect invalid behaviour of ''P'' with high probability, or answer wrong with probability 2<sup>−100</sup>.
 
Notably, ''P'' is used only as a blackbox.
 
== Applications ==
 
In [[cheminformatics]] and in [[mathematical chemistry]], graph isomorphism testing is used to identify a [[chemical compound]] within a [[chemical database]].<ref>Christophe-André Mario Irniger (2005) "Graph Matching: Filtering Databases of Graphs Using Machine Learning", ISBN 1-58603-557-6</ref>  Also, in organic mathematical chemistry graph isomorphism testing is useful for generation of [[molecular graph]]s and for [[Combinatorial chemistry|computer synthesis]].
 
Chemical database search is an example of graphical [[data mining]], where the [[graph canonization]] approach is often used.<ref>"Mining Graph Data", by Diane J. Cook, Lawrence B. Holder (2007)  ISBN 0-470-07303-9, [http://books.google.com/books?id=bHGy0_H0g8QC&pg=PA119&dq=%22canonical+labeling%22+graphs#PPA120,M1 pp. 120&ndash;122, section 6.2.1. "Canonical Labeling"]</ref> In particular, a number of [[identifier]]s for [[chemical substance]]s,  such as [[SMILES]] and [[InChI]], designed to provide a standard and human-readable way to encode molecular information and to facilitate the search for such information in databases and on the web, use canonization step in their computation, which is essentially the canonization of the graph which represents the molecule.
 
In [[electronic design automation]] graph isomorphism is the basis of the [[Layout Versus Schematic]] (LVS) circuit design step, which is a verification whether the [[electric circuit]]s represented by a [[circuit diagram|circuit schematic]] and an [[integrated circuit layout]] are the same.<ref>{{cite conference |title=An artwork design verification system
