I am working on a structure I called a flower graph. Basically, it is many cycles with possibly different lengths sharing one central vertex and it can be drawn to look like a flower. For example the figure below should have 5 cycles with the lengths specified.
I need different instances of this graph none of which will have more than 5 cycles; however, I might need to add three dots to indicate continuation like the figure. The style I used for my vertices is
\tikzset{ myVrtxStyle/.style = {
circle, minimum size= 4mm, %very thick,
draw= #1!60!black!85,
top color= white, bottom color= #1!70!black!60,
font= \normalsize \ttfamily \bfseries, text= black,
},
myVrtxStyle/.default= gray,
>= {Stealth[length=2.5mm]}
}
I am slightly better than beginners in tikz
. The thought of where and how to begin designing a code to draw this structure is a bit daunting for me at my level. Any idea or suggestion that might help me or make my code easier is appreciated.
