Webgraph
open-in-new
<p>The webgraph describes the directed links between pages of the <a href="/facts/World_Wide_Web/wvnTrWFq">World Wide Web</a>. A <a href="/facts/Graph_(discrete_mathematics)/kw3eIBUe">graph</a>, in general, consists of several vertices, some pairs connected by edges. In a <a href="/facts/Directed_graph/YBdfQ0um">directed graph</a>, edges are directed lines or arcs. The webgraph is a directed graph, whose vertices correspond to the pages of the WWW, and a directed edge connects page X to page Y if there exists a <a href="/facts/Hyperlink/LqNsa84e">hyperlink</a> on page X, referring to page Y. </p>
