regular

In graph theory, a regular graph is a graph where each vertex has the same number of neighbors; i.e. every vertex has the same degree or valency. A regular directed graph must also satisfy the stronger condition that the indegree and outdegree of each vertex are equal to each other. A regular graph with vertices of degree

{\displaystyle k}
is called a



k


{\displaystyle k}
‑regular graph or regular graph of degree



k


{\displaystyle k}
. Also, from the handshaking lemma, a regular graph contains an even number of vertices with odd degree.
Regular graphs of degree at most 2 are easy to classify: a 0-regular graph consists of disconnected vertices, a 1-regular graph consists of disconnected edges, and a 2-regular graph consists of a disjoint union of cycles and infinite chains.
A 3-regular graph is known as a cubic graph.
A strongly regular graph is a regular graph where every adjacent pair of vertices has the same number l of neighbors in common, and every non-adjacent pair of vertices has the same number n of neighbors in common. The smallest graphs that are regular but not strongly regular are the cycle graph and the circulant graph on 6 vertices.

    Regular radiator bleeding

    Oil boiler (now~15 years old) unvented system with 17 radiators. We moved in 5 years ago and I had to keep bleeding the same radiator. The bleed gas could be burned with a blue flame and the water was acidic (pH 5.5). Since then system has been chemically flushed (it was not too bad) and the...

    Regular persistent smell from shower

    Regular boiler replaced with Bosch 25i system

    Quick question - our old regular boiler was just replaced after it failed. They installed a new Bosch 25i system boiler instead. I don’t really understand the details, but they say they fed it from the attic tank and so I should ignore the fact the pressure gauge is at 0. I think it is designed...

    Radiator needs regular bleeding

    One radiator in the house needs to be bled every week, it works fine otherwise and there is no sign of a leak near the radiator or in the pipes leading to it. Should I be worried about a leak?

    Connecting 15mm regular TRV to 10mm pex pipe

    Has anyone got any advise on this please. Can I use a compression reducer to connect a 15mm TRV to a 10mm pex pipe? Not sure if the compression would hold onto the pex pipe. Or do I have to go from TRV > copper > pex. Thanks, Mark
