 V = set of vertices
 E = set of edges
 In anIn an undirected graph:undirected graph:

 In aIn a directeddirected graph:graph:
 edge(u,v) goes from vertex u to vertex v, notated

 Adjacent verticesAdjacent vertices: connected by an edge: connected by an edge
 Vertex v is adjacent to u if and only if (u, v) ∈ E.
 In an undirected graph with edge (u, v), and hence
(v, u), v is adjacent to u and u is adjacent to v.

 AA PathPath in a graph from u to v is a sequence of edges between
vertices w0, w1, …, wk, such that (wi, wi+1) ∈ E, u = w0 and v =
wk, for 0 ≤ i < k

path

 Loops
 If the graph contains an edge (v, v) from a vertex to itself,
then the path v, v is sometimes referred to as a loop.
 The graphs we will consider will generally be loopless.
 A simple path is a path such that all vertices are distinct, except that the first and
last could be the same.

 CyclesCycles
 A cycle in a directed graph is a path of length at least 2
such that the first vertex on the path is the same as the last
one; if the path is simple, then the cycle is a simple cycle.
 A cycle in a undirected graph
A path of length at least 3 such that the first vertex on the path is
the same as the last one.
The edges on the path are distinct.
abeda is a simple cycle.

 If each edge in the graph carries a value, then the graph is
called weighted graph.
 A weighted graph is a graph G = (V, E, W), where each
edge, e ∈ E is assigned a real valued weight, W(e).
 A complete graph is a graph with an edge between every
pair of vertices.
 A graph is called complete graph if every vertex is
adjacent to every other vertex.

 The adjacency matrix is a dense representationThe adjacency matrix is a dense representation
 Usually too much storage for large graphs
 But can be very efficient for small graphs
 Most large interesting graphs are sparseMost large interesting graphs are sparse
 For this reason the adjacency list is often a more
appropriate representation
