Aim of the course -

The aim of the seminar is to make students of mathematics education acquainted with the basic notions and techniques of graph theory. On some selected themes the specific methods of argumentation and proofs in graph theory will be illustrated. The motivation by practical problems will be put into the foreground and the effectiveness of graph-theoretical methods will be shown.

Teaching methods -

At the seminar we will present standard problems and on the solution of these problems we will illustrate the fundamental notions and methods of graph theory. Thus a rather concrete approach, close to problem solving will be used.
