Applying the Mycielskian repeatedly, starting with the one-edge graph, produces a sequence of graphs M i = μ(M i−1), sometimes called the Mycielski graphs. The first few graphs in this sequence are the graph M 2 = K 2 with two vertices connected by an edge, the cycle graph M 3 = C 5 , and the Grötzsch graph M 4 with 11 vertices and 20 edges.
The unit circle can be specified as the level curve f(x, y) = 1 of the function f(x, y) = x 2 + y 2.Around point A, y can be expressed as a function y(x).In this example this function can be written explicitly as () =; in many cases no such explicit expression exists, but one can still refer to the implicit function y(x).
Cauchy's functional equation is the functional equation: (+) = + (). A function that solves this equation is called an additive function.Over the rational numbers, it can be shown using elementary algebra that there is a single family of solutions, namely : for any rational constant .
Defining g −1 as the inverse of g is an implicit definition. For some functions g, g −1 (y) can be written out explicitly as a closed-form expression — for instance, if g(x) = 2x − 1, then g −1 (y) = 1 / 2 (y + 1). However, this is often not possible, or only by introducing a new notation (as in the product log example below).
Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.
If k is sufficiently large, it is known that G has to be 1-factorable: If k = 2n − 1, then G is the complete graph K 2n, and hence 1-factorable (see above). If k = 2n − 2, then G can be constructed by removing a perfect matching from K 2n. Again, G is 1-factorable. Chetwynd & Hilton (1985) show that if k ≥ 12n/7, then G is 1-factorable.
These numbers give the largest possible value of the Hosoya index for an n-vertex graph. [11] The number of perfect matchings of the complete graph K n (with n even) is given by the double factorial (n – 1)!!. [12] The crossing numbers up to K 27 are known, with K 28 requiring either 7233 or 7234 crossings.
The second derivative of a function f can be used to determine the concavity of the graph of f. [2] A function whose second derivative is positive is said to be concave up (also referred to as convex), meaning that the tangent line near the point where it touches the function will lie below the graph of the function.
