A **directed graph** $G$ is a pair $\langle V, E \rangle$, where $V$ is a finite set and $E$ is a binary relation on $V$. An **undirected graph** $G$ is a pair $\langle V, E \rangle$, where $V$ is a finite set and $E$ is a set of unordered pair of vertices from $V$. In both types of graphs, $V$ is called the **vertex set** of $G$ and $E$ is called the **edge set** of $G$.

## Paths
A **path of length $k$** from a vertex $u$ to vertex $u'$ is a sequence $p = \langle v_0, v_1, \ldots, v_k \rangle$ of vertices such that $u = v_0$, $u' = v_k$, and $(v_{i-1}, v_i) \in E$ for $i = 1, 2, \ldots, k$.

Here parenthesis are used to denote either ordered pairs (for directed graphs) or unordered pairs (for undirected graphs).

What does it mean for two graphs to be equal?

We say $G' = (V', E')$ is a **subgraph** of $G = (V, E)$ provided $V' \subseteq V$ and $E' \subseteq E$. We say $G' = (V', E')$ is an **induced subgraph** of $G = (V, E)$ provided $V' \subseteq V$ and every edge in $E$ whose vertices are still in $V'$ is also an edge in $E'$.
