Set

StarStarStarStar

A collection of distinct objects, considered as an object in its own right. Example: The set of all even numbers.

StarStarStarStar

Function

StarStarStarStar

A relation that uniquely associates each element of a set with exactly one element of another set. Example: f(x)=x2f(x) = x^2 is a function that maps every real number x to its square.

StarStarStarStar

Graph

StarStarStarStar

A collection of vertices connected by edges. Example: A simple graph with vertices {A, B, C} and edges {AB, AC, BC}.

StarStarStarStar

Binary Relation

StarStarStarStar

A subset of the Cartesian product of two sets. Example: The 'less than' relation, <,onthesetofintegers., on the set of integers.

StarStarStarStar

Permutation

StarStarStarStar

An arrangement of all or part of a set of objects, with regard to the order of arrangement. Example: The permutations of the set {1,2,3} are {123,132,213,231,312,321}.

StarStarStarStar

Combination

StarStarStarStar

A selection of items from a larger set, such that the order of selection does not matter. Example: From the set {a,b,c}, the combinations of 2 are {ab, ac, bc}.

StarStarStarStar

Proposition

StarStarStarStar

A declarative statement that is either true or false but not both. Example: 'The Eiffel Tower is in Paris' is a proposition.

StarStarStarStar

Truth Table

StarStarStarStar

A table that shows the truth value of a logical expression based on the truth values of its components. Example: The truth table for AND operation between two variables A and B.

StarStarStarStar

Logical Connective

StarStarStarStar

An operator that connects propositions to create a new proposition. Example: AND (∧), OR (∨), NOT (¬).

StarStarStarStar

Pigeonhole Principle

StarStarStarStar

A principle stating that if nn items are put into mm containers, with n>mn > m, then at least one container must contain more than one item. Example: Placing 10 pigeons in 9 pigeonholes.

StarStarStarStar

Recursive Relation

StarStarStarStar

A relation that is defined in terms of itself. Example: The Fibonacci sequence F(n)=F(n1)+F(n2)F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2).

StarStarStarStar

Equivalence Relation

StarStarStarStar

A binary relation that is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. Example: The equality relation '=' on the set of integers.

StarStarStarStar

Graph Isomorphism

StarStarStarStar

A correspondence between two graphs that maps vertices to vertices and edges to edges, preserving adjacency. Example: Two graphs with the same vertices and edges layout but different labeling.

StarStarStarStar

Planar Graph

StarStarStarStar

A graph that can be drawn on a plane without any edges crossing. Example: A graph with 5 vertices and 7 edges that can be drawn without any crossing lines.

StarStarStarStar

Hamiltonian Path

StarStarStarStar

A path in a graph that visits each vertex exactly once. Example: A route that visits every city in a list without repetition.

StarStarStarStar

Eulerian Circuit

StarStarStarStar

A closed path in a graph that uses every edge exactly once. Example: A mail carrier's route that crosses every bridge in a city once and returns to the starting point.

StarStarStarStar

Boolean Algebra

StarStarStarStar

A branch of algebra that deals with true or false values and logical operations. Example: The expression (TF)T(T ∨ F) ∧ T evaluates to true.

StarStarStarStar

Cartesian Product

StarStarStarStar

The set of all ordered pairs obtained by taking each element of one set and pairing it with each element of another set. Example: The Cartesian product of sets A = {x,y} and B = {1,2} is A×B = {(x,1), (x,2), (y,1), (y,2)}.

StarStarStarStar

Directed Graph (Digraph)

StarStarStarStar

A graph in which the edges have a direction associated with them. Example: A graph representing a one-way street system between intersections.

StarStarStarStar

Bipartite Graph

StarStarStarStar

A graph whose vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets such that every edge connects a vertex from one set to a vertex from the other set. Example: A graph representing students and classes, where edges connect students to the classes they are taking.
