How to create an adjacency list representation of a graph, in Java?

/*
	This is implementation shows to create an 
	adjacency list representation of a graph based
	on a list of vertices and edges. 

	Let v be the number of vertices 
	and e the number of edges.

	Time complexity: O(e + v) 
	Space complexity: O(e + v)
