The study of geodetic numbers in graph theory represents a compelling fusion of abstract mathematical ideas with practical applications across network analysis, computational optimisation, and ...

Algorithmic graph theory and optimisation represents a critical nexus between discrete mathematics and computer science, underpinning the development of efficient methodologies for analysing complex ...

Graph theory isn’t enough. The mathematical language for talking about connections, which usually depends on networks—vertices (dots) and edges (lines connecting them)—has been an invaluable way to ...

Let’s say you’re planning your next party and agonizing over the guest list. To whom should you send invitations? What combination of friends and strangers is the right mix? It turns out ...

On March 15, intriguing seminar announcements sent rumblings through the field of combinatorics, the mathematical study of counting. Three collaborators planned to give coordinated talks the following ...

Jacob Holm was flipping through proofs from an October 2019 research paper he and colleague Eva Rotenberg—an associate professor in the department of applied mathematics and computer science at the ...
