find the adjacency matrix A for this graph

To find the adjacency matrix \( A \) for the graph associated with the given matrix \( M \), we need to understand the structure of \( M \). The matrix \( M \) appears to represent an **incidence matrix** of a graph, where each row corresponds to an edge, and each column represents a vertex. The values in the matrix indicate whether the vertex is connected to an edge and the nature of the connection:

- \( 1 \): The vertex is the head of the directed edge.
- \( -1 \): The vertex is the tail of the directed edge.
- \( 0 \): The vertex is not connected to the edge.

We can interpret the graph from this incidence matrix and then construct the adjacency matrix \( A \), which shows the connections between vertices. For an adjacency matrix:
- \( A[i][j] = 1 \) if there is an edge between vertex \( i \) and vertex \( j \).
- \( A[i][j] = 0 \) if there is no edge between vertex \( i \) and vertex \( j \).

### Steps:
1. **Identify vertices and edges** from the incidence matrix \( M \).
2. **Create the adjacency matrix** by checking which vertices are connected by an edge, using the incidence matrix.

#### Matrix \( M \):
\[
M = 
\begin{pmatrix}
1 & -1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\
-1 & 1 & -1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & -1 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & -1 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & -1 & -1 & 0
\end{pmatrix}
\]

Here:
- There are **7 vertices** (columns of the matrix).
- There are **5 edges** (rows of the matrix).

#### Construction of Adjacency Matrix \( A \):
- From row 1, vertices 1 and 2 are connected, so \( A[1][2] = 1 \) and \( A[2][1] = 1 \).
- From row 2, vertices 2 and 3 are connected, so \( A[2][3] = 1 \) and \( A[3][2] = 1 \).
- From row 3, vertices 3 and 4 are connected, so \( A[3][4] = 1 \) and \( A[4][3] = 1 \).
- From row 4, vertices 4 and 5 are connected, so \( A[4][5] = 1 \) and \( A[5][4] = 1 \).
- From row 5, vertices 5 and 6 are connected, so \( A[5][6] = 1 \) and \( A[6][5] = 1 \).

Thus, the adjacency matrix \( A \) for this graph is:

\[
A = 
\begin{pmatrix}
0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0
\end{pmatrix}
\]

This matrix \( A \) represents the adjacency matrix of the graph derived from the incidence matrix \( M \).

#### Tip:
The adjacency matrix is symmetric for undirected graphs, as \( A[i][j] = A[j][i] \) indicates that the edges do not have direction.
