 ## Structural Operators
 <a name="structural_operators"></a>
 
+Currently GraphX supports only a simple set of commonly used structural operators and we expect to
+add more in the future.  The following is a list of the basic structural operators.
+
+{% highlight scala %}
+  def reverse: Graph[VD, ED]
+
+  def subgraph(epred: EdgeTriplet[VD,ED] => Boolean = (x => true),
+    vpred: (VertexID, VD) => Boolean = ((v,d) => true) ): Graph[VD, ED]
+
+  def mask[VD2, ED2](other: Graph[VD2, ED2]): Graph[VD, ED]
+
+  def groupEdges(merge: (ED, ED) => ED): Graph[VD,ED]
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+The `rerverse` operator returns a new graph with all the edge directions reversed.  This can be
+useful when for example trying to compute the inverse PageRank.
+
+The `subgraph` operator takes vertex and edge predicates and returns the graph containing only the
+vertices that satisfy the vertex predicate (evaluate to true) and edges that satisfy the edge
+predicate *and connect vertices that satisfy the vertex predicate*.  The `subgraph` operator can be
+used in number of situations to restrict the graph to the vertices and edges of interest or
+eliminate broken links.
+
+The `mask` operators returns the subgraph containing vertices and edges that are found in the input
+graph.  Finish this description ...
+
+The `groupEdges` operator merges ...
