parents(MixedGraph,Thing) -- return the parents of a vertex of a mixed graph

Synopsis

Description

The parents of v are the all the vertices u such that u,v is in the directed edge set of the MixedGraph G. So the parents of a vertex v are exactly those vertices of the largest digraph component of a mixed graph that point to v.

i1 : G = mixedGraph(graph{{3,1}},digraph {{1,2},{2,3}},bigraph {{3,4},{2,4}})

o1 = MixedGraph{Bigraph => Bigraph{2 => {4}   }}
                                   3 => {4}
                                   4 => {3, 2}
                Digraph => Digraph{1 => {2}}
                                   2 => {3}
                                   3 => {}
                Graph => Graph{1 => {3}}
                               3 => {1}
