Seminar - 2023 Spring

(This is part of Math675 Seminar in Graph Coloring.)

Part of this course will be given by Joyentanuj Das, and he will introduce Topics in Advanced Graph Theory.

This semester we will learn together from the following resources:

• Applied Combinatorics by M.T. Keller and W.T. Trotter:  We will focus on Chapter 5: Graph Theory, Chapter 12: Graph Algorithms, and Chapter 13: Network Flows

• NetworkX tutorial documentation:  We will focus on Installation, Tutorial, and Guides.

• Spectral and Algebraic Graph Theory by Daniel Spielman

Occasionally, this seminar will run with Taiwan South Combinatorics Network (TWSC).

Participants

Jephian Lin,

General guidelines

As an audience

• Before attending a talk.  Check out the title/abstract and mark the words that you do not understand (yet).

• During the talk.  Make some notes, including keywords of definitions or theorems that you do not fully understand.

• After the talk.  Look up the keywords and learn what they are.

As a speaker

• It is better to be slow and clear than fast but vague---if you need more time, we may postpone the next speaker.

• Find corresponding proofs if not provided---see the references of the book.

• It is okay to have something not understood---but please make some effort to understand as much as possible and identify the part that you don't understand.

• Be prepared by the scheduled time, though the schedule might change.

Keywords to be explored later
