A position (usually in 3D space) along with other information such as color, normal vector and texture coordinates. edge A connection between two vertices. face A closed set of edges, in which a triangle face has three edges, and a quad face has four edges. A polygon is a coplanar set of faces. In systems that support multi-sided faces ...
A common type of lattice graph (known under different names, such as grid graph or square grid graph) is the graph whose vertices correspond to the points in the plane with integer coordinates, x-coordinates being in the range 1, ..., n, y-coordinates being in the range 1, ..., m, and two vertices being connected by an edge whenever the corresponding points are at distance 1.
All vertices are valence-6 except the 12 centered at the original vertices which are valence 5. A geodesic polyhedron is a convex polyhedron made from triangles. They usually have icosahedral symmetry, such that they have 6 triangles at a vertex, except 12 vertices which have 5 triangles.
A polygon ear. One way to triangulate a simple polygon is based on the two ears theorem, as the fact that any simple polygon with at least 4 vertices without holes has at least two "ears", which are triangles with two sides being the edges of the polygon and the third one completely inside it. [5]
In graph theory, the metric dimension of a graph G is the minimum cardinality of a subset S of vertices such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in S. Finding the metric dimension of a graph is an NP-hard problem; the decision version, determining whether the metric dimension is less than a given ...
An independent set of ⌊ ⌋ vertices (where ⌊ ⌋ is the floor function) in an n-vertex triangle-free graph is easy to find: either there is a vertex with at least ⌊ ⌋ neighbors (in which case those neighbors are an independent set) or all vertices have strictly less than ⌊ ⌋ neighbors (in which case any maximal independent set must have at least ⌊ ⌋ vertices). [4]
In the mathematical field of graph theory, the distance between two vertices in a graph is the number of edges in a shortest path (also called a graph geodesic) connecting them. This is also known as the geodesic distance or shortest-path distance. [1] Notice that there may be more than one shortest path between two vertices. [2]
In it, any two points can reach each other along a path through the line segments. It can be found as the minimum spanning tree of a complete graph with the points as vertices and the Euclidean distances between points as edge weights. The edges of the minimum spanning tree meet at angles of at least 60°, at most six to a vertex.
