Objectives

Programme

Enumerative combinatorics (permutations and combinations, binomial theorem, theorems on the binomial coefficients). Significant methods for enumeration, pigeonhole principle and the sieve.

Basic Graph Theoretical notions (vertex, edge, degree, isomorphism, path, cycle, connectivity). Trees, Cayley's formula, Prüfer-sequences. Kruskal's greedy algorithm. Characterization of bipartite graphs. Matchings, theorems of Kőnig, Hall and Frobenius, Tutte theorem, Gallai's theorems. Network flows, the Ford-Fulkerson algorithm, Edmonds-Karp algorithm.  

Menger's theorems, higher vertex and edge connectivity of graphs, Dirac's theorem.

 Euler's result on Eulerian tours and trails.

Hamiltonian cycles and paths, necessary condition for the existence. Sufficient conditions (theorems of Dirac, Ore, Pósa and Chvátal).

 Planarity, relation to embeddability on the sphere and the torus, stereographic projection, Euler polyhedron theorem, Kuratowski's theorem, Fáry theorem.

 BFS and DFS, algorithms for shortest paths (Dijkstra, Ford, Floyd), PERT.
