Discrete Mathematics
Our Research
We are one of the largest and oldest discrete math groups in Canada. Our group has a wide variety of expertise in pure and applied discrete math and combinatorics. Our research themes include Structural Graph Theory, matroids, enumeration, bioinformatics, ancestral genomics, digital communications, and Coding Theory.
