Learning outcomes
Graph theory: the main aim of the course is to provide students with the basic information about this modern mathematical discipline. Basic notions, important theoretical achievements. Applying the graph theory to everyday mathematics and everyday situations. Combinatorics: basic combinatoric functions. Variation, permutation, combination. Equivalence relations. Inclusion and exclusion. Iterative formulas.
Students will deepen their basic knowledge of combinatorics and acquire basic knowledge of graph theory. They know the typical problems that are solved in this discipline.
