Graph Theory (Graduate Texts in Mathematics)
Graph Theory - Graduate Texts in Mathematics Author:Reinhard Diestel This book is a concise - yet most carefully written - introduction to modern graph theory, covering all its major recent developments. It can be used both as a reliable textbook for an introductory course and as a graduate text: on each topic it covers all the basic material in full detail, and adds one or two deeper results (again with detailed... more » proofs) to illustrate the more advanced methods of that field. This second edition extends the first in two ways. It offers a thoroughly revised and updated chapter on graph minors, which now includes full new proofs of two of the central Robertson-Seymour theorems (as well as a detailed sketch of the entire proof of their celebrated Graph Minor Theorem). Secondly, there is now a section of hints for all the exercises, to enhance their value for both individual study and classroom use.« less
