Definition
The Petersen graph is a particular undirected graph on 10 vertices that can be defined in the following equivalent ways:
- It is the complement of the line graph of complete graph:K5.
- It is the Kneser graph : its vertices are identified with subsets of size two of a 5-element set, and two vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding subsets are disjoint.
- It is the unique 5-cage.
