_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Compute highly connected subgraphs for an undirected graph

_U_s_a_g_e:

     highlyConnSG(g, sat, ldv)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       g: an instance of the 'graph' class with 'edgemode' "undirected"

     sat: singleton adoption threshold, positive integer 

     ldv: to remove lower degree vertice, a decreasing sequence of
          positive integer 

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     A graph G with n vertices is highly connected if its connectivity
     k(G) > n/2.  The HCS algorithm partitions a given graph into a set
     of highly connected subgraphs, by using minimum-cut algorithm
     recursively.  To improve performance, the approach is refined by
     adopting singletons, removing low degree vertices and merging
     clusters.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A list of clusters, each is given as vertices in the graph.

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):

     Li Long <li.long@isb-sib.ch>

_R_e_f_e_r_e_n_c_e_s:

     A Clustering Algorithm based on Graph Connectivity by E. Hartuv,
     R. Shamir, 1999.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     'edgeConnectivity', 'minCut'

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

     coex <- fromGXL(file(system.file("XML/hcs.gxl",package="RBGL")))
