Computer science description: We define an algebraic theory of hierarchical graphs, whose axioms characterise graph isomorphism: two terms are equated exactly when they represent the same graph. Our algebra can be understood as a high-level language for describing graphs with a node-sharing, embedding structure, and it is then well suited for defining graphical representations of software models where nesting and linking are key aspects. publisher: Springer contributor: Wirsing, Martin contributor: Hofmann, Martin contributor: Rauschmayer, Axel date: 2010 type: Book Section type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://eprints.imtlucca.it/144/1/bruni_gadducci_lluch-lafuente2010a.pdf identifier: Bruni, Roberto and Gadducci, Fabio and Lluch-Lafuente, Alberto An Algebra of Hierarchical Graphs.
