Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...

Back in the hazy olden days of the pre-2000s, navigating between two locations generally required someone to whip out a paper map and painstakingly figure out the most optimal route between those ...

Graph algorithms and combinatorial optimisation form a pivotal area of research that underpins many modern computational applications. At their core, graph algorithms provide systematic methods for ...

Graph labeling is a central topic in combinatorial optimisation that involves assigning numerical or categorical labels to vertices or edges of a graph subject to specific constraints. This framework ...

Researchers thought that they were five years away from solving a math riddle from the 1980's. In reality, and without knowing, they had nearly cracked the problem and had just given away much of the ...

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: Design and analysis of advanced algorithms: graph algorithms; maximal network flows; min-cost flow algorithms; convex cost flows. REQUIRED TEXT ...

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...
