The graph colouring problem, a classic NP-hard challenge, is central to many practical applications such as scheduling, resource allocation and network management. Recent advances have seen the ...

Algorithm promises to greatly streamline solutions to the 'max flow' problem. Research could boost the efficiency even of huge networks like the Internet. Finding the most efficient way to transport ...

Back in the hazy olden days of the pre-2000s, navigating between two locations generally required someone to whip out a paper map and painstakingly figure out the most optimal route between those ...

Graphs are everywhere. In discrete mathematics, they are structures that show the connections between points, much like a ...

Computer scientists are abuzz over a fast new algorithm for solving one of the central problems in the field. (January 15, 2017, update: On January 4, Babai retracted his claim that the new algorithm ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...
