Definition
Let $G=(V_G,E_G)$ be a graph with an edge labeling $\lambda:E_G\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$.
A realization $\rho:V_G\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^2$ is called compatible with $\lambda$ if $||\rho(u)-\rho(v)||=\lambda(uv)$ for all $uv\in E_G$.
The labeling $\lambda$ is called
where the counting is up to direct Euclidean isometries. A graph is called movable iff it has a proper flexible labeling.

Theorem [Pollaczek-Geiringer, Laman]
A graph is generically rigid, i.e., a generic realization defines a rigid labeling, if and only if the graph contains a Laman subgraph with the same set of vertices.
A graph $G=(V_G,E_G)$ is called Laman if $|E_G| = 2|V_G|-3$, and $|E_H|\leq 2|V_H|-3$ for all subgraphs $H$ of $G$.

Definition
Let $G$ be a graph. A coloring of edges $\delta\colon E_G\rightarrow \{\text{blue, red}\}$ is called a NAC-coloring, if it is surjective and for every cycle $C$ in $G$, either all edges of $C$ have the same color, or $C$ contains at least 2 edges in each color.
Theorem [Grasegger, L., Schicho]
A graph $G$ has a flexible labeling if and only if it has a NAC-coloring.

Definition $\DeclareMathOperator{\CDC}{CDC} \newcommand{\cdc}[1]{\CDC(#1)}$ $\DeclareMathOperator{\Upairs}{U} \newcommand{\upairs}[1]{\Upairs(#1)}$
Let $\upairs{G}$ denote the set of all pairs $\{u,v\}\subset V_G$ such that $uv\notin E_G$ and there exists a path from $u$ to $v$ which is unicolor for all NAC-colorings $\delta$ of $G$. If there exists a sequence of graphs $G=G_0, \dots, G_n$ such that $G_i=(V_{G_{i-1}},E_{G_{i-1}} \cup \upairs{G_{i-1}})$ for $i\in\{1,\dots,n\}$ and $\upairs{G_n}=\emptyset$, then the graph $G_n$ is called the constant distance closure of $G$, denoted by $\cdc{G}$.
Theorem [Grasegger, L., Schicho]
A graph $G$ is movable if and only $\cdc{G}$ is movable.
CDC = M.constant_distance_closure()
show(graphics_array([col.plot() for col in M.NAC_colorings()]))

Corollary
If $G$ is movable, then $\cdc{G}$ is not complete.

Lemma [Grasegger, L., Schicho]
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph with an injective embedding $\omega:V\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^3$ such that for every edge $uv\in E$, the vector $\omega(u)-\omega(v)$ is parallel to one of the four vectors $(1,0,0)$, $(0,1,0)$, $(0,0,1)$, $(-1,-1,-1)$, and all four directions are present. Then $G$ is movable.
Moreover, there exist two NAC-colorings such that two edges are parallel in the embedding $\omega$ if and only if they receive the same pair of colors.
