Term | Definition |
Graph | A finite, discrete set of vertices linked by edges |
Tree | A connected, undirected graph with no cycles |
Rooted tree | A tree where one vertex is the starting point, and all points use this as a ‘root’ |
Directed graph | A graph where each edge has a direction (shown by an arrow) |
Vertex | A point where two edges connect |
Edge | A line connecting two vertices |
Neighbours | Adjacent vertices to a vertex |
Degree (of a vertex) | The number of edges connected to a vertex |
Weighted graph | A graph where each edge has been given a weight |
Simple graph | A graph where there are no loops, and no more than 1 edge per vertex. Each edge connects two different vertices. |
Path | A route that does not have to visit all edges |
Circuit | A succession of edges that start and end at the same vertex |
Cycle | A closed path where all the edges and intermediate vertices are different |
Undirected graph | A graph with no direction (ie an edge can be traversed either way) |
Explorer’s problem | The solution finds a route that traverses each ‘road’ (edge) exactly once before returning to the start point |
Traveller’s problem | The solution finds a route that visits each ‘city’ (vertex) exactly once before returning to the start point |
