Circulant graphs can be described in several equivalent ways: [2] The automorphism group of the graph includes a cyclic subgroup that acts transitively on the graph's vertices. In other words, the graph has an automorphism which is a cyclic permutation of its vertices. The graph has an adjacency matrix that is a circulant matrix.
In graph theory, a graph or digraph whose adjacency matrix is circulant is called a circulant graph/digraph. Equivalently, a graph is circulant if its automorphism group contains a full-length cycle. The Möbius ladders are examples of circulant graphs, as are the Paley graphs for fields of prime order.
A directed cycle graph of length 8. A directed cycle graph is a directed version of a cycle graph, with all the edges being oriented in the same direction. In a directed graph, a set of edges which contains at least one edge (or arc) from each directed cycle is called a feedback arc set.
A circular-arc graph (left) and a corresponding arc model (right). In graph theory, a circular-arc graph is the intersection graph of a set of arcs on the circle. It has one vertex for each arc in the set, and an edge between every pair of vertices corresponding to arcs that intersect.
A pie chart (or a circle chart) is a circular statistical graphic which is divided into slices to illustrate numerical proportion. In a pie chart, the arc length of each slice (and consequently its central angle and area ) is proportional to the quantity it represents.
A circle with five chords and the corresponding circle graph. In graph theory, a circle graph is the intersection graph of a chord diagram.That is, it is an undirected graph whose vertices can be associated with a finite system of chords of a circle such that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding chords cross each other.
A graph that contains a Hamiltonian path is called a traceable graph. A graph is Hamiltonian-connected if for every pair of vertices there is a Hamiltonian path between the two vertices. A Hamiltonian cycle , Hamiltonian circuit , vertex tour or graph cycle is a cycle that visits each vertex exactly once.
Archimedean spiral represented on a polar graph The Archimedean spiral has the property that any ray from the origin intersects successive turnings of the spiral in points with a constant separation distance (equal to 2 πb if θ is measured in radians ), hence the name "arithmetic spiral".
