Graphs@TMU is a long-established, active research group in Toronto Metropolitan University's Department of Mathematics. We explore diverse topics in pure and applied discrete mathematics, but cutting edge research in graph theory is our unifying theme.
Graphs (or networks) emerge in every aspect of the natural and technological world – ranging from online social networks such as Facebook, to Bitcoin transactions, to biochemical activity inside living cells. Through graphs, we model these interactions and uncover fundamental directions – such as finding efficient ways to detect adversarial activity, or understanding hidden mechanisms that drive how networks form over time.
"New data points are generated in every human-technology interaction, and in social sciences, economics, neurology and many other fields. We're now seeing lots of interest from industry and academia for developing new tools to manage these complex networks."
