401-3052-05L Graph Theory
Semester | Spring Semester 2018 |
Lecturers | B. Sudakov |
Periodicity | yearly recurring course |
Language of instruction | English |
Abstract | Basic notions, trees, spanning trees, Caley's formula, vertex and edge connectivity, blocks, 2-connectivity, Mader's theorem, Menger's theorem, Eulerian graphs, Hamilton cycles, Dirac's theorem, matchings, theorems of Hall, König and Tutte, planar graphs, Euler's formula, basic non-planar graphs, graph colorings, greedy colorings, Brooks' theorem, 5-colorings of planar graphs |
Learning objective | The students will get an overview over the most fundamental questions concerning graph theory. We expect them to understand the proof techniques and to use them autonomously on related problems. |
Lecture notes | Lecture will be only at the blackboard. |
Literature | West, D.: "Introduction to Graph Theory" Diestel, R.: "Graph Theory" Further literature links will be provided in the lecture. |
Prerequisites / Notice | NOTICE: This course unit was previously offered as 252-1408-00L Graphs and Algorithms. |
