be a graph. A bipartition of is an ordered pair of subsets of with the properties:
- and
- For every and
- i.e. splitting the graph in a way where all edge connections are severed
- if is bipartite then every subgraph of is bipartite
Between graphs
- if then is bipartite is bipartite
With Cycles
- is bipartite n is even, for
- if contains an odd cycle, then is not bipartite
