Special Values
- A vertex with degree 0 is called an isolated vertex.
- A vertex with degree 1 is called a leaf vertex or end vertex, and the edge incident with that vertex is called a pendant edge. In the graph on the right, {3,5} is a pendant edge. This terminology is common in the study of trees in graph theory and especially trees as data structures.
- A vertex with degree n-1 in a graph on n vertices is called a dominating vertex.
