Baglamas Baglamas The baglamas () (plural "baglamades") or baglamadaki (), a long necked bowl-lute, is a plucked string instrument used in Greek music; it is a version of the bouzouki pitched an octave higher (nominally D-A-D), with unison pairs on the four highest strings and an octave pair on the lower D. Musically, the baglamas is most often found supporting the bouzouki in the Piraeus city style of rebetiko. The body is often hollowed out from a piece of wood ("skaftos", construction) or else made from a gourd, but there are also baglamas with staved backs. Its small size made it
Shannon capacity of a graph eight neighbors, the eight strings that it can be confused with. A subset of length-two strings forms a code with no possible confusion if and only if it corresponds to an independent set of this graph. The set of code words {"11", "23", "35", "54", "42"} forms one of these independent sets, of maximum size. If "G" is a graph representing the signals and confusable pairs of a channel, then the graph representing the length-two codewords and their confusable pairs is "G" ⊠ "G", where the symbol "⊠" represents the strong product of graphs. This is a graph that has
