Comment (by chapoton):

 Hello,

 1) I am not quite sure about the name indeed. I would say that this is
 usually called the zeta function of a graph. But there are variants, some
 of them called weighted zeta functions. I think keeping the name starting
 with zeta is good for TAB completion.

 2) The algorithm needs to duplicate every edge, by orienting the original
 one in a chosen direction, and the new one in the other direction. I take
 as orientation the one given by self.edges(). I then use the shift by the
 number of edges as the bijection between original edges and their
 duplicate-reverse.

 3) Some people had needed that function and used another way to do it :
