Archimedean Graph
In the mathematical field of graph theory, an Archimedean graph is a graph that forms the skeleton of one of the Archimedean solids. There are 13 Archimedean graphs, and all of them are regular, polyhedral (and therefore by necessity also 3-vertex-connected planar graphs), and also Hamiltonian graphs. Along with the 13, the set of infinite prism graphs and antiprism graphs can also be considered Archimedean graphs.An Atlas of Graphs, p. 261 See also *Platonic graph *Wheel graph A wheel is a circular component that is intended to rotate on an axle bearing.

Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting poin ...

Cubic Graph
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a cubic graph is a graph in which all vertices have degree three. In other words, a cubic graph is a 3-regular graph. Cubic graphs are also called trivalent graphs. A bicubic graph is a cubic bipartite graph. Symmetry In 1932, Ronald M. Foster began collecting examples of cubic symmetric graphs, forming the start of the Foster census.. Many well-known individual graphs are cubic and symmetric, including the utility graph, the Petersen graph, the Heawood graph, the Möbius–Kantor graph, the Pappus graph, the Desargues graph, the Nauru graph, the Coxeter graph, the Tutte–Coxeter graph, the Dyck graph, the Foster graph and the Biggs–Smith graph. W. T. Tutte classified the symmetric cubic graphs by the smallest integer number ''s'' such that each two oriented paths of length ''s'' can be mapped to each other by exactly one symmetry of the graph. He showed that ''s'' is at most 5, and provided examples of graphs with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Truncated Icosahedral Graph
In geometry, the truncated icosahedron is an Archimedean solid, one of 13 convex isogonal nonprismatic solids whose 32 faces are two or more types of regular polygons. It is the only one of these shapes that does not contain triangles or squares. In general usage, the degree of truncation is assumed to be uniform unless specified. It has 12 regular pentagonal faces, 20 regular hexagonal faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges. It is the Goldberg polyhedron GPV(1,1) or 1,1, containing pentagonal and hexagonal faces. This geometry is associated with footballs (soccer balls) typically patterned with white hexagons and black pentagons. Geodesic domes such as those whose architecture Buckminster Fuller pioneered are often based on this structure. It also corresponds to the geometry of the fullerene C60 ("buckyball") molecule. It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated order-5 dodecahedral honeycomb. Construction This polyhedron can be const ...

Truncated Dodecahedral Graph
In geometry, the truncated dodecahedron is an Archimedean solid. It has 12 regular decagonal faces, 20 regular triangular faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges. Geometric relations This polyhedron can be formed from a regular dodecahedron by truncating (cutting off) the corners so the pentagon faces become decagons and the corners become triangles. It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated icosahedral honeycomb. Area and volume The area ''A'' and the volume ''V'' of a truncated dodecahedron of edge length ''a'' are: :\begin A &= 5 \left(\sqrt+6\sqrt\right) a^2 &&\approx 100.990\,76a^2 \\ V &= \tfrac \left(99+47\sqrt\right) a^3 &&\approx 85.039\,6646a^3 \end Cartesian coordinates Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated dodecahedron with edge length 2''φ'' − 2, centered at the origin, are all even permutations of: :(0, ±, ±(2 + ''φ'')) :(±, ±''φ'', ±2''φ'') :(±''φ'', ±2, ±(''φ'' +&n ...

Icosidodecahedral Graph
In geometry, an icosidodecahedron is a polyhedron with twenty (''icosi'') triangular faces and twelve (''dodeca'') pentagonal faces. An icosidodecahedron has 30 identical vertices, with two triangles and two pentagons meeting at each, and 60 identical edges, each separating a triangle from a pentagon. As such it is one of the Archimedean solids and more particularly, a quasiregular polyhedron. Geometry An icosidodecahedron has icosahedral symmetry, and its first stellation is the compound of a dodecahedron and its dual icosahedron, with the vertices of the icosidodecahedron located at the midpoints of the edges of either. Its dual polyhedron is the rhombic triacontahedron. An icosidodecahedron can be split along any of six planes to form a pair of pentagonal rotundae, which belong among the Johnson solids. The icosidodecahedron can be considered a ''pentagonal gyrobirotunda'', as a combination of two rotundae (compare pentagonal orthobirotunda, one of the Johnson solids). I ...

Quintic Graph
In algebra, a quintic function is a function of the form :g(x)=ax^5+bx^4+cx^3+dx^2+ex+f,\, where , , , , and are members of a field, typically the rational numbers, the real numbers or the complex numbers, and is nonzero. In other words, a quintic function is defined by a polynomial of degree five. Because they have an odd degree, normal quintic functions appear similar to normal cubic functions when graphed, except they may possess one additional local maximum and one additional local minimum. The derivative of a quintic function is a quartic function. Setting and assuming produces a quintic equation of the form: :ax^5+bx^4+cx^3+dx^2+ex+f=0.\, Solving quintic equations in terms of radicals (''n''th roots) was a major problem in algebra from the 16th century, when cubic and quartic equations were solved, until the first half of the 19th century, when the impossibility of such a general solution was proved with the Abel–Ruffini theorem. Finding roots of a quintic equa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Snub Cubic Graph
A snub, cut or slight is a refusal to recognise an acquaintance by ignoring them, avoiding them or pretending not to know them. For example, a failure to greeting, greet someone may be considered a snub. In Awards and Lists For awards, the term "snub" is usually used to refer to a work or person that fails to be nominated or win award, with whether or not a person or work was legitimately snubbed for an award has often been subject for public debate. The term Snub has also been used in relation to lists, such as the NBA 75th Anniversary Team. Many of the most notable people and works have failed to be nominated or win a major award for example Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, and Spike Lee never won best director at the Oscars despite being nominated five, four, and one time respectively, Glenn Close, Peter O'Toole, and Cicely Tyson were also notable for having never won an Oscar related to acting despite each of them having multiple nominations.

Snub Cubical Graph
In geometry, the snub cube, or snub cuboctahedron, is an Archimedean solid with 38 faces: 6 squares and 32 equilateral triangles. It has 60 edges and 24 vertices. It is a chiral polyhedron; that is, it has two distinct forms, which are mirror images (or " enantiomorphs") of each other. The union of both forms is a compound of two snub cubes, and the convex hull of both sets of vertices is a truncated cuboctahedron. Kepler first named it in Latin as cubus simus in 1619 in his Harmonices Mundi. H. S. M. Coxeter, noting it could be derived equally from the octahedron as the cube, called it snub cuboctahedron, with a vertical extended Schläfli symbol s \scriptstyle\begin 4 \\ 3 \end, and representing an alternation of a truncated cuboctahedron, which has Schläfli symbol t \scriptstyle\begin 4 \\ 3 \end. Dimensions For a snub cube with edge length 1, its surface area and volume are: :\begin A &= 6+8\sqrt &&\approx 19.856\,406\,460\,6 \\ V &=\frac &&\approx 7.889\,477\,399\,98 ...

Truncated Cuboctahedral Graph
In geometry, the truncated cuboctahedron is an Archimedean solid, named by Kepler as a truncation of a cuboctahedron. It has 12 square faces, 8 regular hexagonal faces, 6 regular octagonal faces, 48 vertices, and 72 edges. Since each of its faces has point symmetry (equivalently, 180° rotational symmetry), the truncated cuboctahedron is a 9-zonohedron. The truncated cuboctahedron can tessellate with the octagonal prism. Names There is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron with a similar name: the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron. Cartesian coordinates The Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated cuboctahedron having edge length 2 and centered at the origin are all the permutations of: :(±1, ±(1 + ), ±(1 + 2)). Area and volume The area ''A'' and the volume ''V'' of the truncated cuboctahedron of edge length ''a'' are: :\begin A &= 12\left(2+\sqrt+\sqrt\right) a^2 &&\approx 61.755\,1724~a^2, \\ V &= \left(22+14\sqrt\right) a^3 &&\approx 41.798\,98 ...

Rhombicuboctahedral Graph
In geometry, the rhombicuboctahedron, or small rhombicuboctahedron, is a polyhedron with eight triangular, six square, and twelve rectangular faces. There are 24 identical vertices, with one triangle, one square, and two rectangles meeting at each one. If all the rectangles are themselves square (equivalently, all the edges are the same length, ensuring the triangles are equilateral), it is an Archimedean solid. The polyhedron has octahedral symmetry, like the cube and octahedron. Its dual is called the deltoidal icositetrahedron or trapezoidal icositetrahedron, although its faces are not really true trapezoids. Names Johannes Kepler in Harmonices Mundi (1618) named this polyhedron a ''rhombicuboctahedron'', being short for ''truncated cuboctahedral rhombus'', with ''cuboctahedral rhombus'' being his name for a rhombic dodecahedron. There are different truncations of a rhombic dodecahedron into a topological rhombicuboctahedron: Prominently its rectification (left), the one tha ...

Truncated Octahedral Graph
In geometry, the truncated octahedron is the Archimedean solid that arises from a regular octahedron by removing six pyramids, one at each of the octahedron's vertices. The truncated octahedron has 14 faces (8 regular hexagons and 6 squares), 36 edges, and 24 vertices. Since each of its faces has point symmetry the truncated octahedron is a 6-zonohedron. It is also the Goldberg polyhedron GIV(1,1), containing square and hexagonal faces. Like the cube, it can tessellate (or "pack") 3-dimensional space, as a permutohedron. The truncated octahedron was called the "mecon" by Buckminster Fuller. Its dual polyhedron is the tetrakis hexahedron. If the original truncated octahedron has unit edge length, its dual tetrakis hexahedron has edge lengths and . Construction A truncated octahedron is constructed from a regular octahedron with side length 3''a'' by the removal of six right square pyramids, one from each point. These pyramids have both base side length (''a'') and lateral sid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
