A chord of a graph cycle C is an edge not in the edge set of C whose endpoints lie in the vertex set C (West 2000, p. 225). For example, in the diamond graph as labeled ...

The Delsarte graph is a strongly regular graph on 243 vertices with regular parameters (nu,k,lambda,mu)=(243,110,37,60). It is distance-regular as well as distance-transitive ...

A set A in a first-countable space is dense in B if B=A union L, where L is the set of limit points of A. For example, the rational numbers are dense in the reals. In ...
