<p>As the title says, is there a mathematical object referred to as "ivy" or "ivy type" or similar?</p>
<p>I have a type of graph where this name fits perfectly, but I don't want it to clash with something already defined.</p>
<p>(I could in this paper call it a "reduced graph" or "contracted graph" but the above definition would make more sense.)</p>

Integrable vector Young functions are called IVY-functions in <a href="http://www.ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=2055989" rel="nofollow">MR2055989</a> and related papers. Otherwise all occurrences are the plant or a person.</p>
