Graph Theory is a fundamental field of mathematics |
- A graph consists of a set of vertices (also called nodes) and a set of edges (also called links) that connect pairs of vertices.
- Graphs can be directed (where edges have a direction) or undirected (where edges do not have a direction).
- Graphs can be used to model many real-world systems, including social networks, transportation networks, and computer networks.
- Graph theory has many important concepts and applications, including shortest paths, maximum flow, minimum spanning trees, and graph coloring.
- Graph algorithms are widely used in computer science, including in optimization problems, data structures, and artificial intelligence.
