bookGraph Theory Essentials

Graphs are fundamental structures in mathematics and computer science, widely used to represent relationships in data. At the core of every graph are nodes (also called vertices) and edges. A node is an individual entity, such as a person, a webpage, or a molecule. An edge is a connection or relationship between two nodes, like a friendship, a hyperlink, or a chemical bond.

Understanding adjacency is crucial in graph theory. Two nodes are said to be adjacent if they are connected directly by an edge. This concept helps you determine which nodes can influence or interact with each other. In machine learning, graphs are used to model complex, interconnected data—think social networks, citation networks, or biological systems. The way nodes and edges are structured captures valuable information about the system's connectivity, which is essential for tasks like node classification, link prediction, and community detection.

An adjacency matrix is a square matrix used to represent a graph. Each row and column corresponds to a node, and the entry at (i, j) is nonzero if there is an edge between nodes i and j. In machine learning, adjacency matrices are widely used for representing graphs in algorithms, enabling efficient computation and easy integration with numerical libraries.
