Overview

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.

Incidence

If \langle u, v \rangle is an edge of a directed graph, we say \langle u, v \rangle is incident to v and incident from u. Furthermore, we say v is adjacent to u. If \{u, v\} was instead an edge of an undirected graph, we say \{u, v\} is incident on u and v. Likewise, v is adjacent to u and u is adjacent to v.

Paths

A path is a trail in which no vertex is repeated (except possibly the first and last). A cycle is a path that starts and ends at the same vertex. A graph with no cycles is acyclic.

In computer science, a cycle is sometimes required to have more than one edge:

  • In a directed graph, path \langle v_0, v_1, \ldots, v_k \rangle is a cycle if v_0 = v_k and the path contains at least one edge.
  • In an undirected graph, path \langle v_0, v_1, \ldots, v_k \rangle is a cycle if v_0 = v_k and all edges are distinct.

Isomorphisms

An isomorphism between two graphs G_1 and G_2 is a bijection f \colon V_1 \rightarrow V_2 between the vertices of the graphs such that (a, b) is an edge in G_1 if and only if (f(a), f(b)) is an edge in G_2. Here parenthesis are used to denote either ordered pairs (for directed graphs) or unordered pairs (for undirected graphs).

We say G_1 and G_2 are isomorphic, denoted G_1 \cong G_2, if and only if there exists an isomorphism between G_1 and G_2.
