Graph theory has long provided a robust mathematical framework for investigating networks, relations and connectivity in both abstract and applied settings. Recent advances have markedly refined our ...

Graphs are everywhere. In discrete mathematics, they are structures that show the connections between points, much like a ...

A professor has helped create a powerful new algorithm that uncovers hidden patterns in complex networks, with potential uses in fraud detection, biology and knowledge discovery. University of ...

Lance Fortnow on the current status and future outlook of solving the P-NP problem.

Our research area encompasses the study of computation, computational models, computational complexity, algorithm design, algorithm verification, combinatorial optimization, computational biology and ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...

A major advance reveals deep connections between the classes of problems that computers can — and can’t — possibly do. At first glance, the big news coming out of this summer’s conference on the ...
