MATH 5840 - Complex Networks and Systems

(3 credits)

Prerequisites: Linear Algebra or equivalent or permission of the instructor.

This course introduces the student to the study of complex networks through the lens of graph theory. Concepts of the mathematical properties of networks such as distance, connectivity, expansibility and clusters or hubs (centrality) are studied. Computational tools and data visualization techniques are also studied. Applications with emphasis on recent work regarding properties of biological networks are covered.
