Selected topics in discrete mathematics

Data is displayed for the academic year: 2025./2026.

Course Description

Discrete mathematics is an area of mathematics whose progress is strongly motivated by solving various engineering problems. One of the most interesting and important structures is a graph, which finds numerous applications in various networks. In this course, we will present the following contemporary topics: combinatorial optimization; graphs; coloring of graphs and application to solving the problem of scheduling; the problem of community detection; software testing and orthogonal arrays; design and planning of experiments; Latin squares and their application in statistics.
