Discrete mathematics is the study of finite or countable discrete structures; it spans such topics as graph theory, coding theory, design theory, and enumeration. The faculty at Michigan Tech ...

The zeta function of a graph, inspired by analogues in number theory and differential geometry, encodes fundamental cycle and path data in a compact analytic form. Its prototypical instance, the Ihara ...

Organized by: Joshua Cooper (cooper@math.sc.edu), Alec Helm (ah191@email.sc.edu), and Isaiah Hollars (isaiah.hollars@sc.edu) This page will be updated as new seminars are scheduled. Make sure to check ...

Introduces students to ideas and techniques from discrete mathematics that are widely used in science and engineering. Mathematical definitions and proofs are emphasized. Topics include formal logic ...

3 Apply the principles of set theory, functions and relations. 4 Apply the principles of abstract algebra. 5 Apply techniques of number theory to coding and cryptography. 6 Apply techniques of graph ...

Graph labeling and colouring constitute a vibrant area of combinatorial mathematics concerned with the systematic assignment of discrete labels or colours to graph elements—typically vertices, edges ...
