  2. Degree (graph theory) - Wikipedia

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

    A vertex with degree 1 is called a leaf vertex or end vertex or a pendant vertex, and the edge incident with that vertex is called a pendant edge. In the graph on the right, {3,5} is a pendant edge. This terminology is common in the study of trees in graph theory and especially trees as data structures. A vertex with degree n − 1 in a graph ...

  3. Degree matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_matrix

    where the degree ⁡ of a vertex counts the number of times an edge terminates at that vertex. In an undirected graph , this means that each loop increases the degree of a vertex by two. In a directed graph , the term degree may refer either to indegree (the number of incoming edges at each vertex) or outdegree (the number of outgoing edges at ...

  4. Vertex (graph theory) - Wikipedia

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

    A graph with 6 vertices and 7 edges where the vertex number 6 on the far-left is a leaf vertex or a pendant vertex. In discrete mathematics, and more specifically in graph theory, a vertex (plural vertices) or node is the fundamental unit of which graphs are formed: an undirected graph consists of a set of vertices and a set of edges (unordered pairs of vertices), while a directed graph ...

  5. Graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_theory

    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 ⁠.

  6. Graph (discrete mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The degree or valency of a vertex is the number of edges that are incident to it; for graphs with loops, a loop is counted twice. In a graph of order n, the maximum degree of each vertex is n − 1 (or n + 1 if loops are allowed, because a loop contributes 2 to the degree), and the maximum number of edges is n(n − 1)/2 (or n(n + 1)/2 if loops ...

  7. Directed graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directed_graph

    A vertex with deg − (v) = 0 is called a source, as it is the origin of each of its outgoing arcs. Similarly, a vertex with deg + (v) = 0 is called a sink, since it is the end of each of its incoming arcs. The degree sum formula states that, for a directed graph,

  8. Erdős–Gallai theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdős–Gallai_theorem

    The inequality between the sum of the largest degrees and the sum of the remaining degrees can be established by double counting: the left side gives the numbers of edge-vertex adjacencies among the highest-degree vertices, each such adjacency must either be on an edge with one or two high-degree endpoints, the () term on the right gives the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_graph_theory

    One of the two vertices joined by a given edge, or one of the first or last vertex of a walk, trail or path. The first endpoint of a given directed edge is called the tail and the second endpoint is called the head. enumeration Graph enumeration is the problem of counting the graphs in a given class of graphs, as a function of their order.
