Graph theory Flashcards
adjacent
two vertices connected by and edge
incident
the edge e=(y,v) is incident with u and v
handshaking theorem undirected
2E = sum(degrees of v)
handshaking theorem Directed graphs
E= degree outv = degree inv
chromatic number of Kn
complete n
chromatic number of Cn
circle 3 odd, 2 even
Wn chromatic
wheel 3 odd 4 even
Sn
star graphs 2
Bipartite
iff vertices of G can be colored by 2 or fewer colors
iff every circuit has even length
Euler circuit
a simple circuit containing every edge of G
Euler Path
a simple path containing every edge of G
how to tell if it has a Euler circuit
Every vertex must have an even degree
how to tell if it has a Euler path
has exactly 2 vertices of odd degree rest must be even
Hamiltonian circuit
a circuit covering each vertex exactly once
Planar
can be drawn in the plane without crossing edges
eulers formula for connected planar graphs
V-E+R =2
Edge bound for connected planar simple graphs
E<=3V-6
Edge bound for connected planar simple graphs without triangles
E<=2V-4
Kurtowskis theorem
G is nonplanar iff it contains a subgraph K5 or K3,3 cant bge greater than 5 or 3
4 color theorem
for planar graphs the chromaic number cant be more than 4
height of a tree
counted by edges for discrete
spanning tree
is a sugraph of G that contains every vertex of G
how to tell if a simple graph is connected
a simple graph is connected iff it has a spanning tree.
spanning rees have n-1 edges wehre n is averitce
minimum spanning tree
for weighted graphs, a tree with the minimum weight
