  2. Asymmetric graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetric_graph

    In graph theory, a branch of mathematics, an undirected graph is called an asymmetric graph if it has no nontrivial symmetries. Formally, an automorphism of a graph is a permutation p of its vertices with the property that any two vertices u and v are adjacent if and only if p ( u ) and p ( v ) are adjacent.

  3. Dispersion relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_relation

    Two-frequency beats of a non-dispersive transverse wave. Since the wave is non-dispersive, phase and group velocities are equal. For an ideal string, the dispersion relation can be written as =, where T is the tension force in the string, and μ is the string's mass per unit length. As for the case of electromagnetic waves in vacuum, ideal ...

  4. Graph (discrete mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(discrete_mathematics)

    In discrete mathematics, particularly in graph theory, a graph is a structure consisting of a set of objects where some pairs of the objects are in some sense "related". The objects are represented by abstractions called vertices (also called nodes or points ) and each of the related pairs of vertices is called an edge (also called link or line ...

  5. Graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_theory

    In mathematics and computer science, graph theory is the study of graphs, which are mathematical structures used to model pairwise relations between objects. A graph in this context is made up of vertices (also called nodes or points ) which are connected by edges (also called arcs , links or lines ).

  6. Triviality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triviality_(mathematics)

    In graph theory, the trivial graph is a graph which has only 1 vertex and no edge. Database theory has a concept called functional dependency, written . The dependence is true if Y is a subset of X, so this type of dependence is called "trivial". All other dependences, which are less obvious, are called "nontrivial".

  7. Snark (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snark_(graph_theory)

    In the mathematical field of graph theory, a snark is an undirected graph with exactly three edges per vertex whose edges cannot be colored with only three colors. In order to avoid trivial cases, snarks are often restricted to have additional requirements on their connectivity and on the length of their cycles. Infinitely many snarks exist.

  8. Strongly connected component - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strongly_connected_component

    A strongly connected component C is called trivial when C consists of a single vertex which is not connected to itself with an edge, and non-trivial otherwise. [1] The yellow directed acyclic graph is the condensation of the blue directed graph. It is formed by contracting each strongly connected component of the blue graph into a single yellow ...

  9. Incidence geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incidence_geometry

    Simplest non-trivial linear space. A linear space is a partial linear space such that: [7] Every pair of distinct points determines exactly one line. Some authors add a "non-degeneracy" (or "non-triviality") axiom to the definition of a (partial) linear space, such as: There exist at least two distinct lines. [8]
