Are discrete and null graphs the same thing?

147 Views Asked by At

I'm reading Saha Ray's book on graphs, there is a confusion point for me: on page 5:

Null graph: If E = Ø, in a graph G = (V, E), then such a graph without any edges is called a null graph.

on page 14:
Discrete graph: A graph is called discrete graph if E(G) = Ø.

Stable: X being a subset of V(G) is stable, if G[X] is a discrete graph.

wikipedia: In graph theory, an independent set or stable set is a set of vertices in a graph, no two of which are adjacent.

These bring me to the following conclusion:
- Discrete means null graph

Is the conclusion correct please?
