Yes, unless there is some special technical meaning to "characteristic" in this context: "Proximate" and "adjacent" mean almost exactly the same thing, except that "adjacent" refers to closeness (actual touching) in physical space and proximate to order in time or, sometimes, logical reasoning. Contiguous is different in that it is a property of a collection of spatial objects rather than a single object, but it could be somewhat loosely defined as "mutual adjacency". The full technical definition of a set of contiguous objects is that, between any two points within the set, there is always a path between the two selected points that does not require going outside the full set In the United States, much the most common use of "contiguous" is in the phrase "contiguous United States", which means all the states except Alaska and Hawaii. No point in either Alaska or Hawaii can be connected along the surface of Earth to any point in another state without going outside the boundaries of the U.S. as a whole.

What is the difference between the words adjacent and contiguous?
An adjacent parcel may be a contiguous parcel -- but not vice-versa.

What is a adjacent vertices?
Adjacent vertices are two vertices in a graph that are directly connected by an edge. In other words, if there is a line segment or arc linking the two vertices, they are considered adjacent. This concept is fundamental in graph theory and helps in understanding the structure and properties of graphs.
What is adjacent sides?
Two things that are adjacent to each other are in contact with each other without overlapping. Examples are adjacent apartments, adjacent states, and adjacent sides of a polygon.The word adjacent as used in the definitions of the cosine and tangent trigonometric functions can be a little confusing because, obviously, it takes two sides to make an angle in a polygon, so, technically, you could say that each angle is adjacent to two sides. When trig functions refer to the side adjacent to one of the acute angles in a right triangle, they are referring to the one that's not the hypotenuse, or, in other words, the one that is also adjacent to the right angle.
