Graph Removal Lemma
In graph theory, the graph removal lemma states that when a graph contains few copies of a given Subgraph (graph theory), subgraph, then all of the copies can be eliminated by removing a small number of edges. The special case in which the subgraph is a triangle is known as the triangle removal lemma. The graph removal lemma can be used to prove Roth's theorem on 3-term arithmetic progressions, and a generalization of it, the hypergraph removal lemma, can be used to prove Szemerédi's theorem. It also has applications to property testing. Formulation Let H be a graph with h vertices. The graph removal lemma states that for any \epsilon > 0, there exists a constant \delta = \delta(\epsilon, H) > 0 such that for any n-vertex graph G with fewer than \delta n^h Subgraph isomorphism problem, subgraphs isomorphic to H, it is possible to eliminate all copies of H by removing at most \epsilon n^2 edges from G. An alternative way to state this is to say that for any n-vertex graph G with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Graph Theory
In mathematics and computer science, graph theory is the study of ''graph (discrete mathematics), graphs'', which are mathematical structures used to model pairwise relations between objects. A graph in this context is made up of ''Vertex (graph theory), vertices'' (also called ''nodes'' or ''points'') which are connected by ''Glossary of graph theory terms#edge, edges'' (also called ''arcs'', ''links'' or ''lines''). A distinction is made between undirected graphs, where edges link two vertices symmetrically, and directed graphs, where edges link two vertices asymmetrically. Graphs are one of the principal objects of study in discrete mathematics. Definitions Definitions in graph theory vary. The following are some of the more basic ways of defining graphs and related mathematical structures. Graph In one restricted but very common sense of the term, a graph is an ordered pair G=(V,E) comprising: * V, a Set (mathematics), set of vertices (also called nodes or points); * ...

Tetration
In mathematics, tetration (or hyper-4) is an operation (mathematics), operation based on iterated, or repeated, exponentiation. There is no standard mathematical notation, notation for tetration, though Knuth's up arrow notation \uparrow \uparrow and the left-exponent ^b are common. Under the definition as repeated exponentiation, means , where ' copies of ' are iterated via exponentiation, right-to-left, i.e. the application of exponentiation n-1 times. ' is called the "height" of the function, while ' is called the "base," analogous to exponentiation. It would be read as "the th tetration of ". For example, 2 tetrated to 4 (or the fourth tetration of 2) is =2^=2^=2^=65536. It is the next hyperoperation after exponentiation, but before pentation. The word was coined by Reuben Louis Goodstein from tetra- (four) and iterated function, iteration. Tetration is also defined recursively as : := \begin 1 &\textn=0, \\ a^ &\textn>0, \end allowing for the holomorphic function, hol ...

Hypergraph
In mathematics, a hypergraph is a generalization of a Graph (discrete mathematics), graph in which an graph theory, edge can join any number of vertex (graph theory), vertices. In contrast, in an ordinary graph, an edge connects exactly two vertices. Formally, a directed hypergraph is a pair (X,E), where X is a set of elements called ''nodes'', ''vertices'', ''points'', or ''elements'' and E is a set of pairs of subsets of X. Each of these pairs (D,C)\in E is called an ''edge'' or ''hyperedge''; the vertex subset D is known as its ''tail'' or ''domain'', and C as its ''head'' or ''codomain''. The order of a hypergraph (X,E) is the number of vertices in X. The size of the hypergraph is the number of edges in E. The order of an edge e=(D,C) in a directed hypergraph is , e, = (, D, ,, C, ): that is, the number of vertices in its tail followed by the number of vertices in its head. The definition above generalizes from a directed graph to a directed hypergraph by defining the h ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Induced Subgraph
In graph theory, an induced subgraph of a graph is another graph, formed from a subset of the vertices of the graph and ''all'' of the edges, from the original graph, connecting pairs of vertices in that subset. Definition Formally, let G=(V,E) be any graph, and let S\subseteq V be any subset of vertices of . Then the induced subgraph G is the graph whose vertex set is S and whose edge set consists of all of the edges in E that have both endpoints in S . That is, for any two vertices u,v\in S , u and v are adjacent in G if and only if they are adjacent in G . The same definition works for undirected graphs, directed graphs, and even multigraphs. The induced subgraph G may also be called the subgraph induced in G by S , or (if context makes the choice of G unambiguous) the induced subgraph of S . Examples Important types of induced subgraphs include the following. * Induced paths are induced subgraphs that are paths. The shortest path between any two vertices in ...

Bipartite Graph
In the mathematics, mathematical field of graph theory, a bipartite graph (or bigraph) is a Graph (discrete mathematics), graph whose vertex (graph theory), vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets, disjoint and Independent set (graph theory), independent sets U and V, that is, every edge (graph theory), edge connects a Vertex (graph theory), vertex in U to one in V. Vertex sets U and V are usually called the ''parts'' of the graph. Equivalently, a bipartite graph is a graph that does not contain any odd-length cycle (graph theory), cycles. The two sets U and V may be thought of as a graph coloring, coloring of the graph with two colors: if one colors all nodes in U blue, and all nodes in V red, each edge has endpoints of differing colors, as is required in the graph coloring problem.. In contrast, such a coloring is impossible in the case of a non-bipartite graph, such as a Gallery of named graphs, triangle: after one node is colored blue and another red, the third vertex ...

János Komlós (mathematician)
János Komlós (born 23 May 1942, in Budapest) is a Hungarian-American mathematician, working in probability theory and discrete mathematics. He has been a professor of mathematics at Rutgers University since 1988. He graduated from the Eötvös Loránd University, then became a fellow at the Mathematical Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Between 1984–1988 he worked at the University of California, San Diego. Notable results * Komlós' theorem: He proved that every L1-bounded sequence of real functions contains a subsequence such that the arithmetic means of all its subsequences converge pointwise almost everywhere. In probabilistic terminology, the theorem is as follows. Let ξ1,ξ2,... be a sequence of random variables such that ''E'' ¾1''E'' ¾2... is bounded. Then there exist a subsequence ξ'1, ξ'2,... and a random variable β such that for each further subsequence η1,η2,... of ξ'0, ξ'1,... we have (η1+...+ηn)/n → β a.s. * With Miklós Ajtai ...

Erdős–Rényi Model
In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Erdős–Rényi model refers to one of two closely related models for generating random graphs or the evolution of a random network. These models are named after Hungarians, Hungarian mathematicians Paul Erdős and Alfréd Rényi, who introduced one of the models in 1959. Edgar Gilbert introduced the other model contemporaneously with and independently of Erdős and Rényi. In the model of Erdős and Rényi, all graphs on a fixed vertex set with a fixed number of edges are equally likely. In the model introduced by Gilbert, also called the Erdős–Rényi–Gilbert model, each edge has a fixed probability of being present or absent, statistical independence, independently of the other edges. These models can be used in the probabilistic method to prove the existence of graphs satisfying various properties, or to provide a rigorous definition of what it means for a property to hold for almost all graphs.
