Hypergraph

Description

• 

The command Vertices(H) returns a list of the vertices of H.

Terminology

• 

Hypergraph : mathematically, a hypergraph is a pair (X, Y) where X  is a finite set and Y is a set of non-empty subsets of X.

• 

Vertices : the members of X are called the vertices of the hypergraph (X, Y).

• 

Hyperedges : the members of Y are called the hyperedges (or simply edges) of  the hypergraph (X, Y).

Examples
