Graphs: vertices, edges, degrees

The basic objects of graph theory and the handshake lemma.

A graph is a set of vertices with edges between some pairs. The handshake lemma: the degrees sum to twice the number of edges, so the number of odd-degree vertices is even. Picture it: dots and lines; a complete graph on 5 vertices has 10 edges, which is 5 choose 2. Think it: graphs are relations drawn; the adjacency matrix makes them linear algebra.

Vprašanja, ki jih ljudje sprašujejo

Permutation or combination?

Ask whether order matters. A lock code is a permutation (order matters); a hand of cards is a combination (it does not).

What is a graph in this sense?

Dots (vertices) joined by lines (edges), not a plot. Road maps, social networks and molecules are graphs; questions like "is there a route" and "how few colours" are graph theory.
