  2. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

    Vertex distance is the distance between the back surface of a corrective lens, i.e. glasses (spectacles) or contact lenses, and the front of the cornea. Increasing or decreasing the vertex distance changes the optical properties of the system, by moving the focal point forward or backward, effectively changing the power of the lens relative to ...

  3. Distance (graph theory) - Wikipedia

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

    A peripheral vertex in a graph of diameter d is one whose eccentricity is d —that is, a vertex whose distance from its furthest vertex is equal to the diameter. Formally, v is peripheral if ϵ(v) = d. A pseudo-peripheral vertex v has the property that, for any vertex u, if u is as far away from v as possible, then v is as far away from u as

    The degree or valency of a vertex is the number of edges that are incident to it, where a loop is counted twice. The degree of a graph is the maximum of the degrees of its vertices. In an undirected simple graph of order n, the maximum degree of each vertex is n − 1 and the maximum size of the graph is ⁠ n(n − 1) / 2 ⁠.

    where the optic axis is presumed to lie in the z direction, and () is the sag—the z-component of the displacement of the surface from the vertex, at distance from the axis. If α 1 {\displaystyle \alpha _{1}} and α 2 {\displaystyle \alpha _{2}} are zero, then R {\displaystyle R} is the radius of curvature and K {\displaystyle K} is the conic ...

    Snap, [6] or jounce, [2] is the fourth derivative of the position vector with respect to time, or the rate of change of the jerk with respect to time. [4] Equivalently, it is the second derivative of acceleration or the third derivative of velocity, and is defined by any of the following equivalent expressions: = ȷ = = =.

  7. Quantum graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_graph

    A metric graph embedded in the plane with three open edges. The dashed line denotes the metric distance between two points and .. A metric graph is a graph consisting of a set of vertices and a set of edges where each edge = (,) has been associated with an interval [,] so that is the coordinate on the interval, the vertex corresponds to = and to = or vice versa.

    Vertex (anatomy), the highest point of the head; Vertex (urinary bladder), alternative name of the apex of urinary bladder; Vertex distance, the distance between the surface of the cornea of the eye and a lens situated in front of it; Vertex presentation, a head-first presentation at childbirth

  9. Resistance distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_distance

    A fan graph is a graph on n + 1 vertices where there is an edge between vertex i and n + 1 for all i = 1, 2, 3, …, n, and there is an edge between vertex i and i + 1 for all i = 1, 2, 3, …, n – 1. The resistance distance between vertex n + 1 and vertex i ∈ {1, 2, 3, …, n} is +
