    MATH1081 Discrete Mathematics T. Britz/D. Chan/D. Trenerry §5 Graph Theory Loosely speaking‚ a graph is a set of dots and dot-connecting lines. The dots are called vertices and the lines are called edges. Formally‚ a (finite) graph G consists of A finite set V whose elements are called the vertices of G; A finite set E whose elements are called the edges of G; A function that assigns to each edge e ∈ E an unordered pair of vertices called the endpoints of e.
