Definition df-nbgr

Description: Define the (open)neighborhood resp. the class of all neighbors of a vertex (in a graph), see definition in section I.1 of Bollobas p. 3 or definition in section 1.1 of Diestel p. 3. The neighborhood/neighbors of a vertex are all (other) vertices which are connected with this vertex by an edge. In contrast to a closed neighborhood, a vertex is not a neighbor of itself. This definition is applicable even for arbitrary hypergraphs.

Remark: To distinguish this definition from other definitions for neighborhoods resp. neighbors (e.g., nei in Topology, see df-nei ), the suffix Vtx is added to the class constant NeighbVtx . (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens and Mario Carneiro, 7-Oct-2017) (Revised by AV, 24-Oct-2020)
