Meanings
noun

Graphique, représentation graphique

(applied mathematics) A data chart (graphical representation of data) intended to illustrate the relationship between a set (or sets) of numbers (quantities, measurements or indicative numbers) and a reference set, whose elements are indexed to those of the former set(s) and may or may not be numbers.

Examples :

"The graphs showing student test scores over the past three years illustrate a clear upward trend in performance. "
Les graphiques montrant les résultats des tests des élèves au cours des trois dernières années illustrent une nette tendance à la hausse des performances.

noun

Graphiques, graphes

A set of points constituting a graphical representation of a real function; (formally) a set of tuples (x1, x2, \ldots, xm, y)\in\R^{m+1}, where y=f(x1, x2, \ldots, xm) for a given function f: \R^m\rightarrow\R.

Examples :

"The graphs of the students' test scores show a clear upward trend over the semester. "
Les graphiques des notes des élèves montrent une nette tendance à la hausse au cours du semestre.

noun

Graphes

(formally) An ordered pair of sets (V,E), where the elements of V are called vertices or nodes and E is a set of pairs (called edges) of elements of V; (less formally) a set of vertices (or nodes) together with a set of edges that connect (some of) the vertices.

Examples :

"The computer science student learned about graphs, which are used to represent connections between friends on social media. "
L'étudiant en informatique a appris les graphes, qui sont utilisés pour représenter les connexions entre amis sur les réseaux sociaux.
math computing structure
noun

Graphes

A topological space which represents some graph (ordered pair of sets) and which is constructed by representing the vertices as points and the edges as copies of the real interval [0,1] (where, for any given edge, 0 and 1 are identified with the points representing the two vertices) and equipping the result with a particular topology called the graph topology.

Examples :

"The computer program used graphs to visualize the relationship between different family members' ages. "
Le programme informatique utilisait des graphes pour visualiser la relation entre les âges des différents membres de la famille.
math space structure technical
noun

Graphe

(of a morphism f) A morphism \Gammaf from the domain of f to the product of the domain and codomain of f, such that the first projection applied to \Gammaf equals the identity of the domain, and the second projection applied to \Gamma_f is equal to f.

Examples :

"In category theory, the graphs of functions are essential for understanding their behavior in terms of mappings between objects. "
En théorie des catégories, les graphes des fonctions sont essentiels pour comprendre leur comportement en termes d'applications entre objets.
math technical
noun

Graphie, graphème

A graphical unit on the token-level, the abstracted fundamental shape of a character or letter as distinct from its ductus (realization in a particular typeface or handwriting on the instance-level) and as distinct by a grapheme on the type-level by not fundamentally distinguishing meaning.

Examples :

"The font designer studied the graphs of various 'a's, focusing on their basic loop and stem shapes, rather than how each one looked in a specific font like Times New Roman or Arial. "
Le créateur de polices a étudié les graphies de différents 'a', en se concentrant sur leurs formes de boucle et de tige de base, plutôt que sur l'apparence de chacun dans une police spécifique comme Times New Roman ou Arial.
