MAT 255 - Topic: Graph Theory & Networks (1)A graph is a collection of points in space (vertices) connected by paths (edges). The concept is simple, yet far-reaching in its flexibility. For example, a vertex could represent a FaceBook subscriber, while an edge between subscribers indicates that they are friends. A graph could represent physical systems as well: A vertex might denote a switch in a computer network, and an edge a connection between switches. This course will cover basic concepts in graph theory: types of graphs, connectivity in graphs, graph coloring, circuits and paths, graph algorithms. Applications will be chosen to address specific student interests. ECB 212 OR CSC 151 OR MAT 120 OR MAT 121 .
