In the context of graph theory, the degree matrix is a square diagonal matrix that is used to represent the degrees of the vertices in a graph. Specifically, for a simple undirected graph \\( G \\) with \\( n \\) vertices, the degree matrix \\( D \\) is defined as follows: 1. The matrix \\( D \\) is of size \\( n \\times n \\). 2. The diagonal entries of \\( D \\) are the degrees of the corresponding vertices in the graph.
