### Rooted product of graphs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooted_product_of_graphs

The rooted product of graphs.

In mathematical graph theory, the rooted product of a graph G and a rooted graph H is defined as follows: take |V(G)| copies of H, and for every vertex vi of G, identify vi with the root node of the i-th copy of H.

More formally, assuming that V(G) = {g1, ..., gn}, V(H) = {h1, ..., hm} and that the root node of H is h1, define

$G \circ H := (V, E)$

where

$V = \left\{(g_i, h_j): 1\leq i\leq n, 1\leq j\leq m\right\}$

and

$E = \left\{((g_i, h_1), (g_k, h_1)): (g_i, g_k) \in E(G)\right\} \cup \bigcup_{i=1}^n \left\{((g_i, h_j), (g_i, h_k)): (h_j, h_k) \in E(H)\right\}$

If G is also rooted at g1, one can view the product itself as rooted, at (g1, h1). The rooted product is a subgraph of the cartesian product of the same two graphs.

The rooted product is especially relevant for trees, as the rooted product of two trees is another tree. For instance, Koh et al. (1980) used rooted products to find graceful numberings for a wide family of trees.

### AKS primality test - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AKS_primality_test

The AKS primality test (also known as Agrawal–Kayal–Saxena primality test and cyclotomic AKS test) is a deterministic primality-proving algorithm created and published by three Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur computer scientists, Manindra Agrawal, Neeraj Kayal, and Nitin Saxena on August 6, 2002 in a paper titled PRIMES is in P.[1] The authors received many accolades, including the 2006 Gödel Prize and the 2006 Fulkerson Prize for this work.

The algorithm determines whether a number is prime or composite within polynomial time, and was soon improved by others. In 2005, Carl Pomerance and H. W. Lenstra, Jr. demonstrated a variant of AKS that runs in O(log6+ε(n)) operations where n is the number to be tested, a marked improvement over the initial O(log12+ε(n)) bound in the original algorithm.[2]
