The diamond graph is the simple graph on 4 nodes and 5 edges illustrated above (Brandstädt et al. 1987, p. 18). It
is isomorphic to the complete tripartite
graph
and
, where
is the tetrahedral graph
with any edge removed. The diamond graph is also sometimes known as the double triangle
graph (West 2000, p. 281).
It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as GraphData["DiamondGraph"].
The term "kite graph" is sometimes used both for this graph (e.g., West 2000, p. 12) and a different one.
