A Turing degree is defined to be a PA degree if there is a set in the degree that computes a completion of PA. This is equivalent to the proposition that every set in the degree computes a completion of PA. Because there are no computable completions of PA, the degree 0 consisting of the computable sets of natural numbers is not a PA degree. Because PA is an effective first order theory, the completions of PA ... The PA degrees are upward closed in the Turing degrees if a is a PA degree and a &le sub T sub b then b is a PA degree. The Turing degree 0 , which is the degree of the halting problem , is a PA degree. There are also PA degrees that are not above 0 . For example, the low basis theorem implies that there is a low PA degree.

Definition The degree graph theory degree of a node in a network sometimes referred to incorrectly as the Connectivity graph theory connectivity is the number of connections or Edge graph theory Graph edges the node has to other nodes. If a network is directed graph directed , meaning that edges point in one direction from one node to another node, then nodes have two different degrees, the in degree, which is the number of incoming edges, and the out degree, which is the number of outgoing edges. The degree distribution P k of a network is then defined to be the fraction of nodes in the network with degree k . Thus if there are n nodes in total in a network and n sub k sub of them have degree k , we have P k n sub k sub n . The same information is also sometimes presented in the form of a cumulative degree distribution , the fraction of nodes with degree greater than or equal to k . Observed degree distributions The degree distribution is very important in studying both real networks, such as the Internet and social networks , and theoretical networks.

An external degree is a Academic degreedegree offered by a university to students who have not been required to be physically present within the geographic territory of the institution. These undergraduates may be called external students and may study at classes unconnected with the university, or independently, or by distance learning . They may obtain the degree by passing examinations once they have reached the required standard, or by having successfully completed a programme put together from various courses or modules. In 1858 the University of London became the first English university to offer external degrees, holding exams open to people in other cities, or to London students who had attended evening classes. In various UK towns university college s were established, where students could study towards a London external degree. The colleges were among the approved centres for London s exams. Soon centres overseas were approved, starting with one in Mauritius in 1865.
