Term graph

A term graph is a representation of an expression in a formal language as a generalized graph whose vertices are terms. Term graphs are a more powerful form of representation than expression trees because they can represent not only common subexpressions (i.e. they can take the structure of a directed acyclic graph) but also cyclic/recursive subexpressions (cyclic digraphs). Abstract syntax trees are not capable of representing shared subexpressions since each tree node can only have one parent; this simplicity comes at a cost of efficiency due to redundant duplicate computations of identical terms. For this reason term graphs are often used as an intermediate language at a subsequent compilation stage to abstract syntax tree construction via parsing. The phrase "term graph rewriting" is often used when discussing graph rewriting methods for transforming expressions in formal languages. Considered from the point of view of graph grammars, term graphs are not regular graphs, but hypergraphs where an n-ary word will have a particular subgraph in first place, another in second place, and so on, a distinction that does not exist in the usual undirected graphs studied in graph theory. Term graphs are a prominent topic in programming language research since term graph rewriting rules are capable of formally expressing a compiler's operational semantics. Term graphs are also used as abstract machines capable of modelling chemical and biological computations as well as graphical calculi such as concurrency models. Term graphs can perform automated verification and logical programming since they are well-suited to representing quantified statements in first order logic. Symbolic programming software is another application for term graphs, which are capable of representing and performing computation with abstract algebraic structures such as groups, fields and rings. The TERMGRAPH conference focuses entirely on research into term graph rewriting and its applications. Term graphs are also used in type inference, where the graph structure aids in implementing type unification. (Wikipedia).

In video 02: Definition of a Graph, we defined a (simple) graph as a set of vertices together with a set of edges where the edges are 2-subsets of the vertex set. Notice that this definition does not allow for multiple edges or loops. In general on this channel, we have been discussing o

What is a Graph? | Graph Theory

What is a graph? A graph theory graph, in particular, is the subject of discussion today. In graph theory, a graph is an ordered pair consisting of a vertex set, then an edge set. Graphs are often represented as diagrams, with dots representing vertices, and lines representing edges. Each

What is a connected graph in graph theory? That is the subject of today's math lesson! A connected graph is a graph in which every pair of vertices is connected, which means there exists a path in the graph with those vertices as endpoints. We can think of it this way: if, by traveling acr
