... Two sets are equal if and only if they contain exactly the same elements. Two sets are equivalent if and only if the elements can be placed in a one-to-one correspondence (ie, they have the same number of elements). For example, if A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {3, 1, 2} then For example, if A = {1, 2, 3, 4 ...

... Now, let’s define the function N so that it takes a node as input and returns the neighbors of that node. A node might have one neighbor, but it could have several, and it might have no neighbors. So the outputs of N can’t be individual nodes. They must be sets of nodes. For example, N(a) = {b, c, e ...
