The book is intended to appeal to a broad audience. KALAMAZOO, Mich.—Western Michigan University's international reputation on the topic of graph theory is on display in a new book published recently ...

The study of such graphs is called graph theory. Engineers need to find planarity in a graph when, for example, they are designing a computer chip without a crossed wire.

Long monochromatic paths in random graphs presented by Andrzej Dudek, Ph.D., Department of Mathematics, Western Michigan University Abstract: Recall that the size-Ramsey number of F, r^ (F, r), is the ...

The field of graph theory has been around since 1736, when Leonhard Euler published an article on the subject of the Seven Bridges of Königsberg (in Prussia, today’s Kaliningrad in Russia).

Refining with colors Mathematicians have developed various strategies to compare graphs. Since the 1970s, algorithms have been able to test graph isomorphism, but in exponential time.

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 ...

Agnes M. Herzberg and M. Ram Murty of Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario have translated the problem of solving a sudoku puzzle into the language of graph theory.

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 ...
