Dr. Aihua Li (Montclair State University, USA):
Interlace Polynomials of Simple Graphs and Recent Development

MS Teams

Abstract:
In this talk, the speaker will introduce the concept of interlace polynomials of simple graphs. Graph polynomials encode graph-theoretical information and useful graph parameters of the underlying graph in various ways. The study of interlace polynomials emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach through both theoretical and applied research. It integrates advanced techniques from combinatorics and algebra to develop graphical properties of the selected graphs. The speaker will introduce the recent development in this direction including activities from research communities in the United States.
