The so-called differential equation method in probabilistic combinatorics presented by Patrick Bennett, Ph.D., Department of Mathematics, Western Michigan University Abstract: Differential equations ...

Commutative algebra and graph theory are two vibrant areas of mathematics that have grown increasingly interrelated. At this interface, algebraic methods are applied to study combinatorial structures, ...

Graph theory isn’t enough. The mathematical language for talking about connections, which usually depends on networks — vertices (dots) and edges (lines connecting them) — has been an invaluable way ...

Mathematicians have proved that copies of smaller graphs can always be used to perfectly cover larger ones. On January 8, three mathematicians posted a proof of a nearly 60-year-old problem in ...
