17.3.5  Closed walks
Syntax	cclwlks 29024	Extend class notation with closed walks (of a graph).
class ClWalks
Definition	df-clwlks 29025*	Define the set of all closed walks (in an undirected graph). According to definition 4 in [Huneke] p. 2: "A walk of length n on (a graph) G is an ordered sequence v0 , v1 , ... v(n) of vertices such that v(i) and v(i+1) are neighbors (i.e are connected by an edge). We say the walk is closed if v(n) = v0". According to the definition of a walk as two mappings f from { 0 , ... , ( n - 1 ) } and p from { 0 , ... , n }, where f enumerates the (indices of the) edges, and p enumerates the vertices, a closed walk is represented by the following sequence: p(0) e(f(0)) p(1) e(f(1)) ... p(n-1) e(f(n-1)) p(n)=p(0). Notice that by this definition, a single vertex can be considered as a closed walk of length 0, see also 0clwlk 29380. (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens, 12-Mar-2018.)

Definition	df-crcts 29040*	Define the set of all circuits (in an undirected graph). According to Wikipedia ("Cycle (graph theory)", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_(graph_theory), 3-Oct-2017): "A circuit can be a closed walk allowing repetitions of vertices but not edges"; according to Wikipedia ("Glossary of graph theory terms", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_graph_theory_terms, 3-Oct-2017): "A circuit may refer to ... a trail (a closed tour without repeated edges), ...". Following Bollobas ("A trail whose endvertices coincide (a closed trail) is called a circuit.", see Definition of [Bollobas] p. 5.), a circuit is a closed trail without repeated edges. So the circuit is also represented by the following sequence: p(0) e(f(1)) p(1) e(f(2)) ... p(n-1) e(f(n)) p(n)=p(0). (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens, 3-Oct-2017.)

Definition	df-cycls 29041*	Define the set of all (simple) cycles (in an undirected graph). According to Wikipedia ("Cycle (graph theory)", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_(graph_theory), 3-Oct-2017): "A simple cycle may be defined either as a closed walk with no repetitions of vertices and edges allowed, other than the repetition of the starting and ending vertex." According to Bollobas: "If a walk W = x0 x1 ... x(l) is such that l >= 3, x0=x(l), and the vertices x(i), 0 < i < l, are distinct from each other and x0, then W is said to be a cycle." See Definition of [Bollobas] p. 5. However, since a walk consisting of distinct vertices (except the first and the last vertex) is a path, a cycle can be defined as path whose first and last vertices coincide. So a cycle is represented by the following sequence: p(0) e(f(1)) p(1) ... p(n-1) e(f(n)) p(n)=p(0). (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens, 3-Oct-2017.) (Revised by AV, 31-Jan-2021.)

17.3.7  Walks as words In general, a walk is an alternating sequence of vertices and edges, as defined in df-wlks 28853: p(0) e(f(1)) p(1) e(f(2)) ... p(n-1) e(f(n)) p(n). Often, it is sufficient to refer to a walk by the natural sequence of its vertices, i.e omitting its edges in its representation: p(0) p(1) ... p(n-1) p(n), see the corresponding remark in [Diestel] p. 6. The concept of a Word, see df-word 14464, is the appropriate way to define such a sequence (being finite and starting at index 0) of vertices. Therefore, it is used in Definitions df-wwlks 29081 and df-wwlksn 29082, and the representation of a walk as sequence of its vertices is called "walk as word". Only for simple pseudographs, however, the edges can be uniquely reconstructed from such a representation. In other cases, there could be more than one edge between two adjacent vertices in the walk (in a multigraph), or two adjacent vertices could be connected by two different hyperedges involving additional vertices (in a hypergraph).
