Description

Networks are everywhere: roads, telephone lines, airline routes, nerve cells, family trees, social and management organisations and the world wide web for example. This course will provide an introduction to the mathematics of networks, looking at some of the key problems and applications. There will be an introduction to graph theory and the classic problems of Euler, Hamilton and the Travelling Salesperson. Additional topics may include an introduction to topology and symmetry theory as applied to networks.
