Trail
Sequence of arcs such that the end node of one is the start node of the next
1 of 14
Path
A trail but with the restriction that no node is passed through more than once
2 of 14
Closed Trail
Initial and final nodes are the same
3 of 14
Cycle
Closed path where only the initial and last nodes are the same
4 of 14
Order of a Node / Valency
number of arcs meeting at the same node
5 of 14
Connected Graph
For any two nodes, a path can be found connecting the nodes
6 of 14
Simple Graph
A graph without loops and multiple arcs
7 of 14
Complete Graph
Every node is connected to every other node by just one arc
8 of 14
Eulerian Graph
A connected graph which has a closed trail containing every arc precisely once
9 of 14
Semi-Eulerian Graph
A connected graph where precisely 2 nodes have an odd order
10 of 14
Weighted Graph
A graph whose arcs have a value
11 of 14
Digraph
A graph whose arcs have a direction
12 of 14
Tree
A connected graph with no cycles
13 of 14
Spanning Tree
A connected graph which includes all the nodes in a network
