  • What is a subgraph? We go over it in today's math lesson! If you're familiar with subsets, then subgraphs are probably exactly what you think they are. Recall that a graph G = (V(G), E(G)) is an ordered pair with a vertex set V(G) and an edge set E(G). Then, another graph H = (V(H), E(H)) is a subgraph of G if and only if V(H) is a subset of V(G) and E(H) is a subset of E(G). So, a graph H is a subgraph of G if and only if every vertex and edge in H is also in G. Thus, just like with subsets, every subgraph is a subgraph of itself. If a graph H is a subgraph of G, and H is not equal to G, we say H is a proper subgraph of G.

    what if the positions of the vertices changed and the edge linked to respective pairs of vertices are equal? are they still subgraph of original graph? please explain. thanks

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching and you are referring to drawing the graphs differently, right? The drawing of a graph is mostly a convenient way to represent the edge and vertex sets, so drawing it differently does not change the graph at all - so yes, still a subgraph. The way we draw the graphs does come more into focus when we discuss planar graphs, and of course it's always nice to have a nicer drawing of a graph rather than an unnecessarily ugly one, but it does not really matter!

  • @SirFakhriMath
    @SirFakhriMath 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, i have one question, if the vertex or edge is not at the original position as the G, does it consider as a subgraph?

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching and great question! Yes, if G is a graph, what defines, say H, as a subgraph of G, is that H is a graph, and the vertices and edges of H are all in G. The way H is drawn does not affect whether or not it is a subgraph. Hope that helps!

    • @PunmasterSTP
      @PunmasterSTP 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think you might have misheard him. In any case, it's fine for a subgraph to have fewer vertices, as long as it doesn't have any edges not present in the original graph.

    i have a doubt are single vertices subgraphs

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching and for your question! They can be, yes. So long as the vertex is in the graph G, then it is a subgraph of G. If H = ( { v }, { } ) is a graph, where we have one vertex v and an empty edge set, it is by definition a subgraph of G if { v } is a subset of G's vertex set since of course { } is always a subset of G's edge set, since the empty set is a subset of every set.

  • @meetpatel8519

    is null graph a subgraph of any graph??

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's a great question! It depends what you mean by null graph. I use the word null graph to refer to the graph with no vertices and no edges. This graph is not always considered a graph, but if you do consider it a graph, since its vertex and edge sets are empty, it is by definition a subgraph of every graph (since the empty set is a subset of every set).
      If, on the other hand, by null graph you mean a graph with one vertex and no edges (I usually call this the trivial graph), it is not a subgraph of every graph because of vertex labels. For example, we may say G = ( {v}, { } ) and H = ( {u, w, x}, {u, w} ). Then G is not actually a subgraph of H because G has the vertex v, but v is not anywhere in H. However, the trivial graph is isomorphic to a subgraph of every graph. If you just consider a single vertex in a graph, and no edges, that subgraph with that one vertex is isomorphic to the trivial graph. Does that make sense?

  • @theanger5930
    @theanger5930 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dude you are making it complicated. It is just a subgraph, that means just a part from the original graph G. You need to draw them at start so its clear what are you talking about and explain after that. And you can't start with 5 vertices like what the hell.
    start with K3 graph. For example if you have a graph with vertices V={a,b,c}, and edges e={ (a,b) , (b,c) , (c,a) } one of the possible subgraphs is vertices={a,b} and only one edge to connect them e=(a,b).
    This is used for example when you are working with larger graphs so you make a subgraph only with the vertices you need. For example if it is a map of the world and you are asked do find the borders of the countries in Europe so you cut off the other continents because you want to focus on what you need to make it simple, so you make a subgraph only of Europe.

      Thank you for your feedback, and I'm sorry to hear this lesson was not effective for you! There are a number of reasons I occasionally choose to go into a definition before an example, but I do think people generally prefer a quick example first. I also wish I had included smaller examples in this lesson so that I could have more easily included multiple instead of just one. Occasionally I am unhappy enough with a past lesson to take it down and make a new one, but that is not the case with this lesson; of course no lesson is perfect. For anyone who watches this video in the future, and sees and agrees with your comment, I offer this lesson by Sarada Herke, which has a structure closer to what you describe, and I hope will help anyone who finds this lesson inadequate.
