The entropy of a class of graphs is defined as lim n^o o(log x n )/(log y n ), where x n is the number of graphs with n vertices from this class and y" is the number of all graphs with n vertices. In this paper the exhaustive description of the range of values of entropy for hereditary classes of simple graphs is given and a method of evaluation of the entropy for such classes is derived.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
