A binary cycle space forms a ______ over the two element field.
A. triangular graph
B. vector space
C. binary tree
D. hamiltonian graph
I got this question at a job interview.
I need to ask this question from Trees topic in section Trees of Discrete Mathematics
Correct option is B. vector space
For explanation I would say: The term cycle refers to an element of the cycle space of a graph. There are many cycle spaces. The most common is the binary cycle space, which contains the edge sets that have even degrees at every vertex and it forms a vector space over the two-element field.
