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 | Students are expected to have a mathematical background and should be able to write rigorous proofs. |
