Graphnoun

(mathematics) A set of points constituting a graphical representation of a real function; (formally) a set of tuples $\left(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_m, y\right)\in\R^\left\{m+1\right\}$, where $y=f\left(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_m\right)$ for a given function $f: \R^m\rightarrow\R$.

Sketchnoun

Graphnoun

(graph theory) (formally) An ordered pair of sets $\left(V,E\right)$, where the elements of $V$ are called vertices or nodes and $E$ is a set of pairs (called edges) of elements of $V$; (less formally) a set of vertices (or nodes) together with a set of edges that connect (some of) the vertices.

Sketchnoun

A rough design, plan, or draft, as a rough draft of a book.

Graphnoun

(topology) A topological space which represents some graph (ordered pair of sets) and which is constructed by representing the vertices as points and the edges as copies of the real interval [0,1] (where, for any given edge, 0 and 1 are identified with the points representing the two vertices) and equipping the result with a particular topology called the graph topology.

Sketchnoun

A brief description of a person or account of an incident; a general presentation or outline.

Graphnoun

A morphism $\Gamma_f$ from the domain of $f$ to the product of the domain and codomain of $f$, such that the first projection applied to $\Gamma_f$ equals the identity of the domain, and the second projection applied to $\Gamma_f$ is equal to $f$.

Graphnoun

A diagram symbolizing a system of interrelations of variable quantities using points represented by spots, or by lines to represent the relations of continuous variables. More than one set of interrelations may be presented on one graph, in which case the spots or lines are typically distinguishable from each other, as by color, shape, thickness, continuity, etc. A diagram in which relationships between variables are represented by other visual means is sometimes called a graph, as in a bar graph, but may also be called a chart.
