Mathematicians Build Long-Awaited Graph Sandwich

·Quanta Magazine··

In 2004, two mathematicians hypothesized a powerful kind of sandwich. They were studying graphs, which are collections of points (called vertices) and lines (called edges). Graphs might represent anything from social groups to the internet to neurons in the brain. The mathematicians hoped to understand properties of one type of graph — a type that’s ubiquitous in mathematics and computer science… Source
