  2. Star (graph theory) - Wikipedia

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

    The star network, a computer network modeled after the star graph, is important in distributed computing. A geometric realization of the star graph, formed by identifying the edges with intervals of some fixed length, is used as a local model of curves in tropical geometry. A tropical curve is defined to be a metric space that is locally ...

  3. Star domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_domain

    A star domain (equivalently, a star-convex or star-shaped set) is not necessarily convex in the ordinary sense. An annulus is not a star domain.. In geometry, a set in the Euclidean space is called a star domain (or star-convex set, star-shaped set [1] or radially convex set) if there exists an such that for all , the line segment from to lies in .

  4. Star polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_polygon

    In geometry, a star polygon is a type of non-convex polygon. Regular star polygons have been studied in depth; while star polygons in general appear not to have been formally defined, certain notable ones can arise through truncation operations on regular simple or star polygons.

  5. Graph (discrete mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A graph with three vertices and three edges. A graph (sometimes called an undirected graph to distinguish it from a directed graph, or a simple graph to distinguish it from a multigraph) [4] [5] is a pair G = (V, E), where V is a set whose elements are called vertices (singular: vertex), and E is a set of unordered pairs {,} of vertices, whose elements are called edges (sometimes links or lines).

  6. Dodecagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecagram

    In geometry, a dodecagram (from Greek δώδεκα (dṓdeka) 'twelve' and γραμμῆς (grammēs) 'line' [1]) is a star polygon or compound with 12 vertices. There is one regular dodecagram polygon (with Schläfli symbol {12/5} and a turning number of 5).

  7. Hodge star operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodge_star_operator

    The naturalness of the star operator means it can play a role in differential geometry, when applied to the cotangent bundle of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold, and hence to differential k-forms. This allows the definition of the codifferential as the Hodge adjoint of the exterior derivative, leading to the Laplace–de Rham operator.

  8. Glossary of graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_graph_theory

    Every quotient graph of a maximal decomposition by splits is a prime graph, a star, or a complete graph. 4. A prime graph for the Cartesian product of graphs is a connected graph that is not itself a product. Every connected graph can be uniquely factored into a Cartesian product of prime graphs. proper 1.

  9. Hexagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagram

    The Star of David in the oldest surviving complete copy of the Masoretic text, the Leningrad Codex, dated 1008. The Magen David is a generally recognized symbol of Judaism and Jewish identity and is also known colloquially as the Jewish Star or "Star of David." Its usage as a sign of Jewish identity began in the Middle Ages, though its ...
