Let = (,) be a graph (or directed graph) containing an edge = (,) with .Let be a function that maps every vertex in {,} to itself, and otherwise, maps it to a new vertex .The contraction of results in a new graph ′ = (′, ′), where ′ = ({,}) {}, ′ = {}, and for every , ′ = ′ is incident to an edge ′ ′ if and only if, the corresponding edge, is incident to in .
A flow is a process in which the points of a space continuously change their locations or properties over time. More specifically, in a one-dimensional geometric flow such as the curve-shortening flow, the points undergoing the flow belong to a curve, and what changes is the shape of the curve, its embedding into the Euclidean plane determined by the locations of each of its points.

The essential idea of this algorithm is to shrink the graph by merging the most intensive vertices, until the graph only contains two combined vertex sets. [2] At each phase, the algorithm finds the minimum s {\displaystyle s} - t {\displaystyle t} cut for two vertices s {\displaystyle s} and t {\displaystyle t} chosen at its will.
Each iteration of the Sierpinski triangle contains triangles related to the next iteration by a scale factor of 1/2. In affine geometry, uniform scaling (or isotropic scaling [1]) is a linear transformation that enlarges (increases) or shrinks (diminishes) objects by a scale factor that is the same in all directions (isotropically).
The vertical shear displaces points to the right of the y-axis up or down, depending on the sign of m. It leaves vertical lines invariant, but tilts all other lines about the point where they meet the y-axis. Horizontal lines, in particular, get tilted by the shear angle to become lines with slope m.
“Shrinking” co-creator Bill Lawrence took inspiration from Michael J. Fox. The showrunner credited the “Back to The Future” star’s public battle with Parkinson’s as a focal point in ...
With a stretching exponent β between 0 and 1, the graph of log f versus t is characteristically stretched, hence the name of the function. The compressed exponential function (with β > 1) has less practical importance, with the notable exception of β = 2, which gives the normal distribution.
But your height can change with age, and it's no myth — you shrink with time. Yep, age-related height loss is a typical part of getting older.
