The Game of Cops and Robbers on Graphs (Student Mathematical Library)
by Anthony Bonato and Richard J. Nowakowski
This book is the first and only one of its kind on the topic of Cops and Robbers games, and more generally, on the field of vertex pursuit games on graphs. The book is written in a lively and highly readable fashion, which should appeal to both senior undergraduates and experts in the field (and everyone in between). One of the main goals of the book is to bring together the key results in the field; as such, it presents structural, probabilistic, and algorithmic results on Cops and Robbers game...
Random Graphs (Mathematics Studies)
Covering a wide range of Random Graphs subjects, this volume examines series-parallel networks, properties of random subgraphs of the n-cube, random binary and recursive trees, random digraphs, induced subgraphs and spanning trees in random graphs as well as matchings, hamiltonian cycles and closure in such structures. Papers in this collection also illustrate various aspects of percolation theory and its applications, properties of random lattices and random walks on such graphs, random allocat...

Graphs of Groups on Surfaces (North-Holland Mathematics Studies, #188)
by Arthur T White and A T White
The book, suitable as both an introductory reference and as a text book in the rapidly growing field of topological graph theory, models both maps (as in map-coloring problems) and groups by means of graph imbeddings on sufaces. Automorphism groups of both graphs and maps are studied. In addition connections are made to other areas of mathematics, such as hypergraphs, block designs, finite geometries, and finite fields. There are chapters on the emerging subfields of enumerative topological g...
Applications of Algebraic Topology (Applied Mathematical Sciences, #16)
by Solomon Lefschetz
This monograph is based, in part, upon lectures given in the Princeton School of Engineering and Applied Science. It presupposes mainly an elementary knowledge of linear algebra and of topology. In topology the limit is dimension two mainly in the latter chapters and questions of topological invariance are carefully avoided. From the technical viewpoint graphs is our only requirement. However, later, questions notably related to Kuratowski's classical theorem have demanded an easily provided tre...
This book contains recent contributions to the fields of rigidity and symmetry with two primary focuses: to present the mathematically rigorous treatment of rigidity of structures and to explore the interaction of geometry, algebra and combinatorics. Contributions present recent trends and advances in discrete geometry, particularly in the theory of polytopes. The rapid development of abstract polytope theory has resulted in a rich theory featuring an attractive interplay of methods and tools fr...
The Reconstruction of Trees from Their Automorphism Groups (Contemporary Mathematics)
Trees, sometimes called semilinear orders, are partially ordered sets in which every initial segment determined by an element is linearly ordered. This book focuses on automorphism groups of trees, providing a nearly complete analysis of when two trees have isomorphic automorphism groups. Special attention is paid to the class of $\aleph_0$-categorical trees, and for this class the analysis is complete. Various open problems, mostly in permutation group theory and in model theory, are discussed,...
Graphs, Networks and Algorithms (Algorithms and Computation in Mathematics, #5)

Revised throughout Includes new chapters on the network simplex algorithm and a section on the five color theorem Recent developments are discussed
Handbook of Graphs and Networks – From the Genome to the Internet
Complex interacting networks are observed in systems from such diverse areas as physics, biology, economics, ecology, and computer science. For example, economic or social interactions often organize themselves in complex network structures. Similar phenomena are observed in traffic flow and in communication networks as the Internet. In current problems of the Biosciences, prominent examples are protein networks in the living cell, as well as molecular networks in the genome. On larger scales on...
The 36th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science (WG 2010) took place in Zar´ os, Crete, Greece, June 28–30, 2010. About 60 mathematicians and computer scientists from all over the world (Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Japan, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Switzerland, the UK, and the USA) attended the conference. WG has a long tradition. Since 1975, WG has taken place 21 times in Germany, four times in The Netherland...

Algorithmic Graph Theory and Perfect Graphs (Annals of Discrete Mathematics, #57)
by M.C. Golumbic
Algorithmic Graph Theory and Perfect Graphs, first published in 1980, has become the classic introduction to the field. This new Annals edition continues to convey the message that intersection graph models are a necessary and important tool for solving real-world problems. It remains a stepping stone from which the reader may embark on one of many fascinating research trails. The past twenty years have been an amazingly fruitful period of research in algorithmic graph theory and structured fa...
This three-volume work presents a coherent description of the theoretical and practical aspects of coloured Petri nets (CP-nets). The second volume contains a detailed presentation of the analysis methods for CP-nets. They allow the modeller to investigate dynamic properties of CP-nets. The main ideas behind the analysis methods are described as well as the mathematics on which they are based and also how the methods are supported by computer tools. Some parts of the volume are theoretical while...

Topology-Based Methods in Visualization (Mathematics and Visualization)
This book presents 13 peer-reviewed papers as written results from the 2005 workshop "Topology-Based Methods in Visualization" that was initiated to enable additional stimulation in this field. It contains a survey of the state-of-the-art, as well original work by leading experts that has not been published before, spanning both theory and applications. It captures key concepts and novel ideas and serves as an overview of current trends in its subject.
The study of matroids is a branch of discrete mathematics with basic links to graphs, lattices, codes, transversals, and projective geometries. Matroids are of fundamental importance in combinatorial optimization and their applications extend into electrical engineering and statics. This new in paperback version of the classic "Matroid Theory" by James Oxley provides a comprehensive introduction to matroid theory, covering the very basics to more advanced topics. With over 500 exercises and pro...
