Graph Theory with Applications

Graph Theory with Applications


Lecturer
Kim Allan Andersen

Contents
This course is an introduction to the theory of finite graphs and will be relevant in particular for students in Operations Research. We will cover the general theory for finite graphs, planarity and duality, connectivity and matching, covering and colouring, flows in networks and graph algorithms. In particular, we will implement some of the graph algorithms using Pascal or C++.

Qualifications
Mathematical Programming.
