Decision Flashcards
Loop
An edge that starts and ends at the same vertex
Order(degree)
Number of edges at a vertex(can be odd or even)
Simple
Has a maximum of one edge between each between each pair of vertices and no loops
Graph
A set of vertices and edges
Path
Is a walk where no vertex is visited more than once
Walk
Is a route along edges of a graph from one vertex to the next
Trail
Is a walk where no edge is visited twice
Cycle
Is a walk with the same end and start vertex without visiting any other vertex more than once
Hamiltonian cycle
Cycle that goes through each vertex exactly once before returning
Connected
Joined up has a trail or path between any two vertices in the graph
Eulerian
Can be drawn without taking the pen off the page starting and finishing at the same vertex (all vertices have even order)
Semi-emulation
Can be drawn without taking pen off page starting and finishing at different vertices( exactly two vertices have odd order)
Subgraph
A graph that is part of another graph
Subtree
A subgraph that is a tree
Spanning tree
A subtree that contains all vertices of the original graph
