Flip graph
In mathematics, a flip graph is a graph whose vertices are combinatorial or geometric objects, and whose edges link two of these objects when they can be obtained from one another by an elementary operation called a flip. Flip graphs are special cases of geometric graphs. Among notable flip graphs, one finds the 1-skeleton of polytopes such as associahedra or cyclohedra.
