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

    A graph that is locally H is claw-free if and only if the independence number of H is at most two; for instance, the graph of the regular icosahedron is claw-free because it is locally C 5 and C 5 has independence number two. The locally linear graphs are the graphs in which every neighbourhood is an induced matching. [5]

    A graph with three components. In graph theory, a component of an undirected graph is a connected subgraph that is not part of any larger connected subgraph. The components of any graph partition its vertices into disjoint sets, and are the induced subgraphs of those sets. A graph that is itself connected has exactly one component, consisting ...
