CIMPA Research School on Graph Structure and Complex Network Analysis
Welcome
CIMPA Research School on Graph Structure and Complex Network Analysis will be held in Nesin Mathematics Village, Şirince, İzmir, Turkey on June 4-16, 2023.
Since the works of Watts and Strogatz (1998) on one hand, and Barabási and Albert (1999) on the other, graph theory has become a major mathematical field that provides a framework to handle network properties theoretically and enables us with very powerful tools to model and solve problems on networks. Understanding their graph structure is a key point in deriving efficient algorithms in large networks. In this school, we will cover theoretical aspects of graph structure analysis as well as applications on complex network studies with 9 lectures in two main axes:
1. Exploiting graph structure to efficiently solve combinatorial problems
2. Extending graph structural analysis to complex network studies
This 12 days program enriched with wonderful social activities will take place in the extremely stimulating environment of the Nesin Mathematics Village (Leelavati prize 2018: https://www.mathunion.org/imu-awards/leelavati-prize/leelavati-prize-2018), and will offer the possibility of starting new and innovative collaborations with young researchers.
Reading Material: Interested students may read the first two chapters of the book Temporal Networks edited by Peter Holme and until the end of Section IV.I in here.
For programming exercises, participants are invited to install python on their laptops BEFORE they arrive at Nesin Village. (C language is also fine).
