In graph theory, a regular graph is a graph where each vertex has the same number of neighbors; i.e. every vertex has the same degree or valency. A regular directed graph must also satisfy the stronger condition that the indegree and outdegree of each internal vertex are equal to each other. [1]
Its authors have divided Elementary Number Theory, Group Theory and Ramanujan Graphs into four chapters. The first of these provides background in graph theory, including material on the girth of graphs (the length of the shortest cycle), on graph coloring, and on the use of the probabilistic method to prove the existence of graphs for which both the girth and the number of colors needed are ...
Graph Theory, 1736–1936 is a book in the history of mathematics on graph theory. It focuses on the foundational documents of the field, beginning with the 1736 paper of Leonhard Euler on the Seven Bridges of Königsberg and ending with the first textbook on the subject, published in 1936 by Dénes Kőnig .
In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Chvátal graph is an undirected graph with 12 vertices and 24 edges, discovered by Václav Chvátal in 1970. It is the smallest graph that is triangle-free , 4-regular , and 4-chromatic .
The hemi-dodecahedron is a regular map produced by pentagonal embedding of the Petersen graph in the projective plane. The p-hosohedron is a regular map of type {2,p}. The Dyck map is a regular map of 12 octagons on a genus-3 surface. Its underlying graph, the Dyck graph, can also form a regular map of 16 hexagons in a torus.
This is a 3-regular graph with 56 vertices and 84 edges, named after Felix Klein. It is Hamiltonian, has chromatic number 3, chromatic index 3, radius 6, diameter 6 and girth 7. It is also a 3-vertex-connected and a 3-edge-connected graph. It has book thickness 3 and queue number 2. [1]
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a distance-regular graph is a regular graph such that for any two vertices v and w, the number of vertices at distance j from v and at distance k from w depends only upon j, k, and the distance between v and w. Some authors exclude the complete graphs and disconnected graphs from this definition.
It is also a 3-vertex-connected graph and a 3-edge-connected graph. It is the smallest 4-regular graph of girth 5 with chromatic number 4. [2] It has book thickness 3 and queue number 2. [3] By Brooks’ theorem, every k-regular graph (except for odd cycles and cliques) has chromatic number at most k.
