citations missing date January 2008 In graphtheory , the term cycle may refer to a closed path graphtheory path . If repeated vertex graphtheory vertices are allowed, it is more often called a closed walk . If the path is a simple path, with no repeated vertices or edges other than the starting and ending vertices, it may also be called a simple cycle , circuit , circle , or polygon see Cyclegraph . A cycle in a directed graph is called a directed cycle. The term cycle may also refer to An element of the binary or integral or real, complex, etc. cycle space of a graph. This is the usage closest to that in the rest of mathematics, in particular algebraic topology . Such a cycle may be called a binary cycle , integral cycle , etc. An edge set that has even degree at every vertex also called an even edge set or, when taken together with its vertices, an even subgraph . This is equivalent to a binary cycle, since a binary cycle is the indicator function of an edge set of this type. Chordless cycle s in a graph are sometimes called graph holes .

Orphan date February 2009 The product life cycletheory is an economic theory that was developed by Raymond Vernon in response to the failure of the Heckscher Ohlin model to explain the observed pattern of international trade . The theory suggests that early in a product s life cycle all the parts and labor associated with that product come from the area in which it was invented. After the product becomes adopted and used in the world markets, production gradually moves away from the point of origin. In some situations, the product becomes an item that is imported by its original country of invention. ref cite book last Hill first Charles authorlink Charles Hill title International Business Competing in the Global Marketplace 6th ed. publisher McGraw Hill year 2007 pages 168 doi isbn 978 0 07 310255 9 ref A commonly used example of this is the invention, growth and production of the personal computer with respect to the United States . The model applies to labor saving and capital using products that at least at first cater to high income groups. In the new product stage, the product is produced and consumed in the US no export trade occurs. In the maturing product stage, mass production techniques are developed and foreign demand in developed countries expands the US now exports the product to other developed countries. In the standardized product stage, production moves to developing countries, which then export the product to developed countries. The model demonstrates dynamic comparative advantage . The country that has the comparative advantage in the production of the product changes from the innovating developed country to the developing countries.

In graphtheory , a branch of mathematics, the rank of an undirected graph is defined as the number math n &minus c , where math n is the number of vertex graphtheory vertices and math c is the number of Connected component graphtheory connected components of the graph. Equivalently, the rank of a graph is the rank linear algebra rank of the oriented incidence matrix associated with the graph. Analogously, the nullity of an undirected graph is the Kernel matrix nullity of its incidence matrix, given by the formula math m &minus n c , where n and c are as above and m is the number of edges in the graph. The nullity is equal to the first Betti number of the graph. The sum of the rank and the nullity is the number of edges.

about graph homomorphisms the subgraph in which all vertices have high degree k core In the mathematics mathematical field of graphtheory , a core is a notion that describes behavior of a graph mathematics graph with respect to graph homomorphism s. Definition Graph math G math is a core if every homomorphism math f G to G math is an graph isomorphism isomorphism , that is it is a bijection of vertices of math G math . A core of a graph math H math is a graph math G math such that There exists a homomorphism from math H math to math G math , there exists a homomorphism from math G math to math H math , and math G math is minimal with this property. Examples Any complete graph is a core. A cyclegraphtheorycycle of odd length is a core. A core of a cycle of even length is math K 2 math . Properties Core of a graph is determined uniquely, up to graph isomorphism isomorphism . If math G to H math and math H to G math then the graphs math G math and math H math have isomorphic cores.

Extremal graphtheory is a branch of the mathematics mathematical field of graphtheory . Extremal graphtheory studies extremal maximal or minimal Graph mathematics graphs which satisfy a certain property. Extremality can be taken with respect to different graph invariant s, such as order, size or girth. More abstractly, it studies how global properties of a graph influence local substructures of the graph. ref harvnb Diestel 2005 ref For example, a simple extremal graphtheory question is which Forest graphtheory acyclic graph s on n vertices have the maximum number of edges? The extremal graphs for this question are tree graphtheory trees on n vertices, which have n   &minus   1 edges. ref Harvnb Bollob s 2004 p 9 ref More generally, a typical question is the following. Given a graph ... such that every graph in H which has u larger than m possess property P . In the example above, H was the set of n vertex graphs, P was the property of being cyclic, and u was the number of edges in the graph. Thus every graph on n vertices with more than n   &minus   1 edges must contain a cycle.
