[biology] Within biological systems, degeneracy refers to circumstances where structurally dissimilar components/modules/pathways can perform similar functions (i.e. are effectively interchangeable) under certain conditions, but perform distinct functions in other conditions. Degeneracy is thus a relational property that requires comparing ...

[graph theory] In graph theory, a ``k``-degenerate graph is an undirected graph in which every subgraph has a vertex of degree at most k: that is, some vertex in the subgraph touches k or fewer of the subgraph`s edges. The degeneracy of a graph is the smallest value of k for which it is k-degenerate. The degeneracy of a graph is a measure o...

[mathematics] In mathematics, a degenerate case is a limiting case in which an element of a class of objects is qualitatively different from the rest of the class and hence belongs to another, usually simpler, class. Degeneracy is the condition of being a degenerate case. A degenerate case thus has special features, which depart from the pr...

The solution (x, y, s) to the primal-dual pair of linear programs: Min{cx: x >= 0, Ax = b} and Max{yb: s >= 0, yA + s = c} is degenerate if it is not strictly complementary ---i.e. x_i = s_i = 0 for some i. The pair (x_i, s_i) is primal degenerate if there is an optimal solution x' such that x'_i > 0. Similarly, the pair is dual degener...

Since all codons can be assigned to amino acids, it is clear that many amino acids must be coded by several different codons, in some cases as many as six.
