National Workshop on Some Recent Research Directions in Graph Theory
May 26-30, 2008
At
Department of Mathematics
Indian Institute of Technology
Kharagpur, Paschim Medinipur
West Bengal , India
Sponsored by
Department of Science and Technology,
Government of India
The subject Graph Theory is an important branch of mathematics, which finds application in almost all areas of Science, Engineering, Management, and Social Sciences. Graphs serve as mathematical models to analyze and solve problems in above areas. It is very convenient and natural to represent the relationships between objects using graph theoretic language.
Over the past four decades Graph Theory has been one of the most rapidly growing areas of Mathematics. But the subject is still young with numerous open problems to work on.
Objectives:
The workshop aims to provide a strong motivation and solid foundation to pursue research and teaching in Graph Theory.
In the five days program, lectures will be delivered by eminent Professors who are active researchers in Graph Theory. In addition to the regular lecture sessions, there will be tutorials, problem sessions and group discussions.
Areas to be covered:
Dominations in Graphs
Graph Labeling
Graph Colorings
Algebraic Graph Theory
Strongly Regular Graphs
Resource Persons:
The list of resource persons includes experts from the department of mathematics and sister departments of IIT, Kharagpur, other IITs , ISI, DST and some Universities.
