Cocycle

Cocycle

A cocycle refers to any one of the following:

Let G be a graph with vertex set V. A cut is a partition S = {X, X'} of V into two nonempty subsets. We denote the set of all edges incident with one vertex in X and one vertex in X' by E(S) or E(X, X'); and any such edge set is called a cocycle. [pg 103 ISBN 1431-1550]
