I am trying to draw a graph on 216 vertices - 215 vertices distributed on a wheel around a fulcrum. Then I want to connect all the peripheral vertices to the fulcrum and join the vertices on the wheel in groups of 5. I managed to do this but one cannot tell the groups of 5 apart. I would like to curve the edges joining the vertices in the groups of 5, so that they are more discernible.
\begin{tikzpicture}[main/.style = {draw, circle, inner sep=1.2, fill=black}]
\node[main, label=right:{$e$}] at (360:0mm) (0) {};
\graph[circular placement, group polar shift=(360/215:0), empty nodes, radius=6cm, nodes={circle, inner sep=1.2, draw=black, fill=black}] {
\foreach \x in {1,...,215} {
\x -- (0);
};
\foreach \x [evaluate={\xi=int(\x+4);}] in {1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, 36, 41, 46, 51, 56, 61, 66, 71, 76, 81, 86, 91, 96, 101, 106, 111, 116, 121, 126, 131, 136, 141, 146, 151, 156, 161, 166, 171, 176, 181, 186, 191, 196, 201, 206, 211} {
\foreach \y in {\x,...,\xi} {
\x -- \y;
};
};
};
\end{tikzpicture}
what I would like is to add, instead, curved edges that highlight the groups of 5 - like this:
where the different colours are just to highlight different groups of 5 in the example. I tried with \x to [out=275,in=265,looseness=2] \y;
but it does not work. Also something like \draw \x to [out=275,in=265,looseness=2] \y;
does not work. Any help is much appreciated!
