I have a little problem. I have create with latex a graph. Here is my code

newcommand{QAow}{mathbf{Q}_{A_{1}{omega}}}

The graph looks as follows

My question is how I can use ovals instead of cirlces, such that the nodes all have the same size. It should look like as follows

Too long for a comment. ellipse does work. To decrease the horizontal space, I changed the looseness of the loops, decreased the node distance and stacked the lower right edge label. Note also that the loops increase the bounding box unnecessarily such that I add a bounding box by hand. (With the lower looseness of the loops the problem is less severe.) To make the wider ellipses approximately equal, you could play with inner xsep. Alternatively, you could use makeboxes.

i don't know, if this image isn't wide than textwidth since the page layout of your document is unknown. however, you can adjust image width with uncomment lines with scale=... and transform shape and adjust image size accordingly :-)
