  2. Degree (graph theory) - Wikipedia

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

    In graph theory, the degree (or valency) of a vertex of a graph is the number of edges that are incident to the vertex; in a multigraph, a loop contributes 2 to a vertex's degree, for the two ends of the edge. [1] The degree of a vertex is denoted or . The maximum degree of a graph is denoted by , and is the maximum of 's vertices' degrees.

  3. Absolute value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value

    In mathematics, the absolute value or modulus of a real number , denoted , is the non-negative value of without regard to its sign. Namely, if is a positive number, and if is negative (in which case negating makes positive), and . For example, the absolute value of 3 is 3, and the absolute value of −3 is also 3.

  4. Parabola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola

    The vertex A is equidistant from the focus F and from the directrix. Since C is on the directrix, the y coordinates of F and C are equal in absolute value and opposite in sign. B is the midpoint of FC. Its x coordinate is half that of D, that is, x/2.

  5. Handshaking lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshaking_lemma

    Given this information, the degree-sum formula can be used to recover the number of edges in the given graph and the degrees of each vertex. From this, it is possible to determine whether the given graph is a regular graph , and if so to determine it uniquely from any vertex-deleted subgraph by adding a new neighbor for all the subgraph ...

  6. Graph (discrete mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(discrete_mathematics)

    A graph with three vertices and three edges. A graph (sometimes called an undirected graph to distinguish it from a directed graph, or a simple graph to distinguish it from a multigraph) [4] [5] is a pair G = (V, E), where V is a set whose elements are called vertices (singular: vertex), and E is a set of unordered pairs {,} of vertices, whose elements are called edges (sometimes links or lines).

  7. Abscissa and ordinate - Wikipedia

    Illustration of ae plane, showing the absolute values (unsigned dotted line lengths) of the coordinates of the points (2, 3), (0, 0), (−3, 1), and (−1.5, −2.5). The first of these signed ordered pairs is the abscissa of the corresponding point, and the second value is its ordinate.

  8. Completing the square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completing_the_square

    That is, h is the x-coordinate of the axis of symmetry (i.e. the axis of symmetry has equation x = h), and k is the minimum value (or maximum value, if a < 0) of the quadratic function. One way to see this is to note that the graph of the function f ( x ) = x 2 is a parabola whose vertex is at the origin (0, 0).

  9. Absolute value (algebra) - Wikipedia

    The standard absolute value on the integers. The standard absolute value on the complex numbers.; The p-adic absolute value on the rational numbers.; If R is the field of rational functions over a field F and () is a fixed irreducible polynomial over F, then the following defines an absolute value on R: for () in R define | | to be , where () = () and ((), ()) = = ((), ()).
