Combinatorics, Probability and Algorithms
The main research interests of our group lie in combinatorics, the study of random discrete structures and the analysis of randomized algorithms.
Combinatorial structures of particular interest are graphs and hypergraphs. Indeed, large graphs underpin much of modern society and science, and can be used to model networks in biology, sociology or computer science. These models give rise to a variety of challenging computational problems. The probabilistic perspective arises both as an invaluable method of proof as well as through the analysis of typical properties of combinatorial objects.
