The chromatic number of a graph G is the smallest number of colors needed to color the vertices of G so that no two adjacent vertices share the same color (Skiena 1990, p. ...

The size of a minimum edge cover in a graph G is known as the edge cover number of G, denoted rho(G). If a graph G has no isolated points, then nu(G)+rho(G)=|G|, where nu(G) ...

Barnette's conjecture asserts that every 3-connected bipartite cubic planar graph is Hamiltonian. The only graph on nine or fewer vertices satisfying Barnette's conditions is ...

A canonical labeling, also called a canonical form, of a graph G is a graph G^' which is isomorphic to G and which represents the whole isomorphism class of G (Piperno 2011). ...

Frucht's theorem states that every finite group is the automorphism group of a finite undirected graph. This was conjectured by König (1936) and proved by Frucht (1939). In ...

A directed graph is called an arborescence if, from a given node x known as the root vertex, there is exactly one elementary path from x to every other node y.

The cotree T^* of a spanning tree T in a connected graph G is the spacing subgraph of G containing exactly those edges of G which are not in T (Harary 1994, p. 39).

The maximum degree, sometimes simply called the maximum degree, of a graph G is the largest vertex degree of G, denoted Delta.

The mean clustering coefficient of a graph G is the average of the local clustering coefficients of G. It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as ...

Let a cotree of a spanning tree T in a connected graph G be denoted T^*. Then the edges of G which are not in T^* are called its twigs (Harary 1994, p. 39).
