graph vs node

graph

noun
  • A set of vertices (or nodes) connected together by edges; (formally) an ordered pair of sets (V,E), where the elements of V are called vertices or nodes and E is a set of pairs (called edges) of elements of V. See also Graph (discrete mathematics) on Wikipedia.Wikipedia 

  • A topological space which represents some graph (ordered pair of sets) and which is constructed by representing the vertices as points and the edges as copies of the real interval [0,1] (where, for any given edge, 0 and 1 are identified with the points representing the two vertices) and equipping the result with a particular topology called the graph topology. 

  • A graphical unit on the token-level, the abstracted fundamental shape of a character or letter as distinct from its ductus (realization in a particular typeface or handwriting on the instance-level) and as distinct by a grapheme on the type-level by not fundamentally distinguishing meaning. 

  • A data chart (graphical representation of data) intended to illustrate the relationship between a set (or sets) of numbers (quantities, measurements or indicative numbers) and a reference set, whose elements are indexed to those of the former set(s) and may or may not be numbers. 

  • A set of points constituting a graphical representation of a real function; (formally) a set of tuples (x_1,x_2,…,x_m,y)∈ R ᵐ⁺¹, where y=f(x_1,x_2,…,x_m) for a given function f: R ᵐ→ R . See also Graph of a function on Wikipedia.Wikipedia 

  • A morphism 𝛤_f from the domain of f to the product of the domain and codomain of f, such that the first projection applied to 𝛤_f equals the identity of the domain, and the second projection applied to 𝛤_f is equal to f. 

verb
  • To draw a graph of a function. 

  • To draw a graph. 

node

noun
  • A vertex or a leaf in a graph of a network, or other element in a data structure. 

  • A point along a standing wave where the wave has minimal amplitude. 

  • The point at which the lines of a funicular machine meet from different angular directions; — called also knot. 

  • The point where the orbit of a planet, as viewed from the Sun, intersects the ecliptic. The ascending and descending nodes refer respectively to the points where the planet moves from South to North and N to S; their respective symbols are ☊ and ☋. 

  • A similar point on a surface, where there is more than one tangent-plane. 

  • A hard concretion or incrustation which forms upon bones attacked with rheumatism, gout, or syphilis; sometimes also, a swelling in the neighborhood of a joint. 

  • A hole in the gnomon of a sundial, through which passes the ray of light which marks the hour of the day, the parallels of the Sun's declination, his place in the ecliptic, etc. 

  • The word of interest in a KWIC, surrounded by left and right cotexts. 

  • The knot, intrigue, or plot of a dramatic work. 

  • A region of an electric circuit connected only by (ideal) wires (i.e the voltage between any two points on the same node must be zero). 

  • A knot, knob, protuberance or swelling. 

  • The point at which a curve crosses itself, being a double point of the curve. See crunode and acnode. 

  • A leaf node. 

  • A computer or other device attached to a network.
