Definition	df-trls 30006*	Define the set of all Trails (in an undirected graph). According to Wikipedia ("Path (graph theory)", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(graph_theory), 3-Oct-2017): "A trail is a walk in which all edges are distinct. According to Bollobas: "... walk is called a trail if all its edges are distinct.", see Definition of [Bollobas] p. 5. Therefore, a trail can be represented by an injective mapping f from { 1 , ... , n } and a mapping p from { 0 , ... , n }, where f enumerates the (indices of the) different edges, and p enumerates the vertices. So the trail 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). (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens and Mario Carneiro, 4-Oct-2017.)

Definition	df-pths 30029*	Define the set of all paths (in an undirected graph). According to Wikipedia ("Path (graph theory)", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(graph_theory), 3-Oct-2017): "A path is a trail in which all vertices (except possibly the first and last) are distinct. ... use the term simple path to refer to a path which contains no repeated vertices." According to Bollobas: "... a path is a walk with distinct vertices.", see Notation of [Bollobas] p. 5. (A walk with distinct vertices is actually a simple path, see upgrwlkdvspth 30054). Therefore, a path can be represented by an injective mapping f from { 1 , ... , n } and a mapping p from { 0 , ... , n }, which is injective restricted to the set { 1 , ... , n }, where f enumerates the (indices of the) different edges, and p enumerates the vertices. So the path 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). (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens and Mario Carneiro, 4-Oct-2017.)

Syntax	cclwlks 30085	Extend class notation with closed walks (of a graph).
class ClWalks
Definition	df-clwlks 30086*	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 30447. (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens, 12-Mar-2018.)
