A graph with max 5 nodes that fulfils the folowing requirements












1














It should contain exactly four cycles and these should all have length 4;
ii) Your graph should contain a node which has degree 3;
iii) Your graph should contain a subgraph which is a tree that has a depth of 3 and
which has two nodes at level 2.
iv) Your graph should contain the smallest number of nodes possible given the
constraints above.

    Have you tried anything? Also, I'm having trouble seeing the point of iv, as i and especially iii seems to require the maximum of 5 nodes anyways.

  • I have tried (a,b) (b,c) (b,d) (b,e) (c,e) (e,b) , but I either get 3 cycles or 6 if I make any more edges and cannot get them to be exactly 4 of length 4.

  • @mathnoob The depth (or height) of a tree is the maximum depth of any node in the tree; in other words, it is the length of the longest path from the root to any node.
