  2. Tree (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(data_structure)

    In computer science, a tree is a widely used abstract data type that represents a hierarchical tree structure with a set of connected nodes. Each node in the tree can be connected to many children (depending on the type of tree), but must be connected to exactly one parent, [1] except for the root node, which has no parent (i.e., the root node ...

  3. Tree (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    v − 1. Chromatic number. 2 if v > 1. Table of graphs and parameters. In graph theory, a tree is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by exactly one path, or equivalently a connected acyclic undirected graph. [1] A forest is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by at most one path, or equivalently ...

  4. Rooted graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooted_graph

    Rooted graph. In mathematics, and, in particular, in graph theory, a rooted graph is a graph in which one vertex has been distinguished as the root. [1][2] Both directed and undirected versions of rooted graphs have been studied, and there are also variant definitions that allow multiple roots. Rooted graphs may also be known (depending on ...

  5. Spanning tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanning_tree

    Almost all graph theory books and articles define a spanning forest as a forest that spans all of the vertices, meaning only that each vertex of the graph is a vertex in the forest. A connected graph may have a disconnected spanning forest, such as the forest with no edges, in which each vertex forms a single-vertex tree. [8] [9]

    book. 1. A book, book graph, or triangular book is a complete tripartite graph K1,1,n; a collection of n triangles joined at a shared edge. 2. Another type of graph, also called a book, or a quadrilateral book, is a collection of 4 -cycles joined at a shared edge; the Cartesian product of a star with an edge.

  7. Tree structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_structure

    A tree structure, tree diagram, or tree model is a way of representing the hierarchical nature of a structure in a graphical form. It is named a "tree structure" because the classic representation resembles a tree, although the chart is generally upside down compared to a biological tree, with the "stem" at the top and the "leaves" at the bottom.

  8. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    Here the function is and therefore the three real roots are 2, -1 and -4. In algebra, a cubic equation in one variable is an equation of the form in which a is not zero. The solutions of this equation are called roots of the cubic function defined by the left-hand side of the equation. If all of the coefficients a, b, c, and d of the cubic ...

  9. Graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_theory

    In mathematics, 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).
