MAD 6306   Complex Networks

College of Sci and Engineering, Department of Mathematics & Statistics

3 sh (may not be repeated for credit)

The course provides an introduction to complex network theory and its applications in physics, biology, technology and social sciences. Basic graph theory and the statistical physics foundations as well as applications to real world networks will be covered. A hands-on approach to analytical and computational techniques for real world networks will be provided. Topics to be covered include the mathematics of networks (graph theory), data analysis, and applications to biology, sociology, technology, and other fields. Students will learn about the ongoing research in the field, and ultimately apply their knowledge to conduct their own analysis of a real network data set of their choosing as part of the final project.
