Project goals: To establish cooperation between researchers
from Serbia and
Slovenia in the field of algebraic graph theory, to enhance
our
understanding and to obtain new relevant scientific results. A
substantial
part of the proposed research project will focus on the
interdisciplinary
application of graphs in the fields of chemistry, network
design and
optimization, and bioinformatics - multidisciplinary field
that applies
principles from mathematics, physics, chemistry and computer
science to
analyse complex biological data, with the aim of solving
biological problems
at molecular level. Project team includes four PhD students
from both
countries, whose development as researchers will be supervised
by the older
team members.
