Ratings: 0.00 / 5.00




Description

You are interested in Graph Theory and Discrete Mathematics. Graph Theory has tremendous applications in Data Science and Computer Applications. I am Suman Mathews, math educator and teacher.


I have a double master's in Mathematics and have taught Math to college students and High school students. This course will introduce you to trees, a very important part of Graph Theory.



The course starts with the definition of trees, a cycle, a complete graph in relation to a tree. You learn that a connected graph with n vertices and n-1 edges is a tree. The relationship between number of vertices and number of edges in a tree is also shown.



Properties of a tree in Graph Theory such as sum of the degrees of vertices of a tree are discussed with proof. Problems on a tree are also shown.


Rooted trees and it's properties are discussed. What is a root? What is an m-ary tree? You will learn about the relationship between the leaves, internal vertices and number of vertices. Binary trees in Graph Theory is also introduced.


The Merge-Sort Method is taught which teaches you to sort numbers.



You will be introduced to a Forest as a collection of trees. Given 2 trees, and their edge set cardinality, you will learn how to find a relation between their vertex sets. You'll learn about pendant vertices.


If a tree has three vertices of degree two , four vertices of degree three , three vertices of degree four, you will learn how to find the number of pendant vertices in the tree and similar problems.


There is a formula handbook at the end.  There is a brief introduction to Rook polynomials and how to construct basic rook polynomials for 4,5,6,7 squares.
