/* CHOLMOD nested dissection and graph partitioning.
 *
 * cholmod_bisect:
 *
 *  Finds a set of nodes that partitions the graph into two parts.
 *  Compresses the graph first.  Requires METIS.
 *
 * cholmod_nested_dissection:
 *
 *  Nested dissection, using its own compression and connected-commponents
 *  algorithms, an external graph partitioner (METIS), and a constrained
 *  minimum degree ordering algorithm (CCOLAMD or CSYMAMD).  Typically
 *  gives better orderings than METIS_NodeND (about 5% to 10% fewer
 *  nonzeros in L).
 *
 * cholmod_collapse_septree:
 *
 *  Prune the separator tree returned by cholmod_nested_dissection.
 *
 * This file contains several routines private to this file:
 *
 *  partition compress and partition a graph
 *  clear_flag  clear Common->Flag, but do not modify negative entries
 *  find_components find the connected components of a graph
 *
 * Supports any xtype (pattern, real, complex, or zomplex).

/* Find a set of nodes that partition a graph.  The graph must be symmetric
 * with no diagonal entries.  To compress the graph first, compress is TRUE
 * and on input Hash [j] holds the hash key for node j, which must be in the
 * range 0 to csize-1. The input graph (Cp, Ci) is destroyed.  Cew is all 1's
 * on input and output.  Cnw [j] > 0 is the initial weight of node j.  On
 * output, Cnw [i] = 0 if node i is absorbed into j and the original weight
 * Cnw [i] is added to Cnw [j].  If compress is FALSE, the graph is not
 * compressed and Cnw and Hash are unmodified.  The partition itself is held in
 * the output array Part of size n.  Part [j] is 0, 1, or 2, depending on
 * whether node j is in the left part of the graph, the right part, or the
 * separator, respectively.  Note that the input graph need not be connected,
 * and the output subgraphs (the three parts) may also be unconnected.
 *
 * Returns the size of the separator, in terms of the sum of the weights of
 * the nodes.  It is guaranteed to be between 1 and the total weight of all
 * the nodes.  If it is of size less than the total weight, then both the left
 * and right parts are guaranteed to be non-empty (this guarantee depends on
 * cholmod_metis_bisector).

/* cholmod_nested_dissection returns the separator tree that was used in the
 * constrained minimum degree algorithm.  Parameter settings (nd_small,
 * nd_oksep, etc) that give a good fill-reducing ordering may give too fine of
 * a separator tree for other uses (parallelism, multi-level LPDASA, etc).  This
 * function takes as input the separator tree computed by
 * cholmod_nested_dissection, and collapses selected subtrees into single
 * nodes.  A subtree is collapsed if its root node (the separator) is large
 * compared to the total number of nodes in the subtree, or if the subtree is
 * small.  Note that the separator tree may actually be a forest.
 *
 * nd_oksep and nd_small act just like the ordering parameters in Common.
 * Returns the new number of nodes in the separator tree.
