  2. Vertex (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_(geometry)

    where V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, and F is the number of faces. This equation is known as Euler's polyhedron formula. Thus the number of vertices is 2 more than the excess of the number of edges over the number of faces. For example, since a cube has 12 edges and 6 faces, the formula implies that it has eight vertices.

  3. Vertex (curve) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_(curve)

    The dots are the vertices of the curve, each corresponding to a cusp on the evolute. In the geometry of plane curves , a vertex is a point of where the first derivative of curvature is zero. [ 1 ] This is typically a local maximum or minimum of curvature, [ 2 ] and some authors define a vertex to be more specifically a local extremum of ...

  4. Vertex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex

    Vertex (geometry), a point where two or more curves, lines, or edges meet Vertex (computer graphics), a data structure that describes the position of a point Vertex (curve), a point of a plane curve where the first derivative of curvature is zero

  5. Graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_theory

    A drawing of a graph with 6 vertices and 7 edges. In mathematics and computer science, graph theory is the study of graphs, which are mathematical structures used to model pairwise relations between objects. A graph in this context is made up of vertices (also called nodes or points) which are connected by edges (also called arcs, links or lines).

  6. Glossary of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_physics

    In physics, the term sometimes refers collectively to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, in which case light includes gamma rays, X-rays, microwaves, and radio waves, but in common usage "light" more often refers specifically to visible light. linear actuator A form of motor that generates a linear movement directly. linear algebra

  7. Vertex (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_(graph_theory)

    A graph with 6 vertices and 7 edges where the vertex number 6 on the far-left is a leaf vertex or a pendant vertex. In discrete mathematics, and more specifically in graph theory, a vertex (plural vertices) or node is the fundamental unit of which graphs are formed: an undirected graph consists of a set of vertices and a set of edges (unordered pairs of vertices), while a directed graph ...

  8. Graph labeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_labeling

    An edge-graceful labeling on a simple graph without loops or multiple edges on p vertices and q edges is a labeling of the edges by distinct integers in {1, …, q} such that the labeling on the vertices induced by labeling a vertex with the sum of the incident edges taken modulo p assigns all values from 0 to p − 1 to the vertices.

  9. Directed graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directed_graph

    In formal terms, a directed graph is an ordered pair G = (V, A) where [1]. V is a set whose elements are called vertices, nodes, or points;; A is a set of ordered pairs of vertices, called arcs, directed edges (sometimes simply edges with the corresponding set named E instead of A), arrows, or directed lines.
