The main challenge here lies in devising a mathematically acceptable proof of this impossibility, which is where the foundations for what we today know as graph theory.

Algorithm that speeds up comparison of graphs would be first major advance in three decades.

Away from finding a magical algorithm that can compare any graph, even in the worst-case scenario, the ISTA researchers sought to understand the philosophy of why certain algorithms seem to work ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory.

A theoretical computer scientist has presented an algorithm that is being hailed as a breakthrough in mapping the obscure terrain of complexity theory, which explores how hard computational problems ...
