In graph theory, a branch of mathematics, a periodic graph with respect to an operator F on graphs is one for which there exists an integer n > 0 such that F n (G) is isomorphic to G. [1] For example, every graph is periodic with respect to the complementation operator , whereas only complete graphs are periodic with respect to the operator ...
In graph theory, the girth of an undirected graph is the length of a shortest cycle contained in the graph. [1] If the graph does not contain any cycles (that is, it is a forest), its girth is defined to be infinity. [2] For example, a 4-cycle (square) has girth 4. A grid has girth 4 as well, and a triangular mesh has girth 3.
For example, a cube with a side length of 1 meter has a surface area of 6 m 2 and a volume of 1 m 3. If the sides of the cube were multiplied by 2, its surface area would be multiplied by the square of 2 and become 24 m 2. Its volume would be multiplied by the cube of 2 and become 8 m 3.
[1] [2] A Euclidean graph is uniformly discrete if there is a minimal distance between any two vertices. Periodic graphs are closely related to tessellations of space (or honeycombs) and the geometry of their symmetry groups, hence to geometric group theory, as well as to discrete geometry and the theory of polytopes, and similar areas.
Circle with square and octagon inscribed, showing area gap. Suppose that the area C enclosed by the circle is greater than the area T = cr/2 of the triangle. Let E denote the excess amount. Inscribe a square in the circle, so that its four corners lie on the circle. Between the square and the circle are four segments.
Gauss's circle problem asks how many points there are inside this circle of the form (,) where and are both integers. Since the equation of this circle is given in Cartesian coordinates by x 2 + y 2 = r 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}} , the question is equivalently asking how many pairs of integers m and n there are such that
First, a large circle is constructed and its circumference is subdivided by 12 diameters into 12 arcs (of 30 degrees each; see regular dodecagon). Next, the radius of this circle is itself subdivided into 12 unit segments (radial units), and a series of concentric circles is constructed, each with radius incremented by one radial unit.
However, when the normalized angular momentum a/r s = L/mcr s equals the square root of three, a metastable circular orbit is possible at the radius highlighted with a green circle. At higher angular momenta, there is a significant centrifugal barrier (orange curve) and an unstable inner radius, highlighted in red.
