Features: Graph theory has a wide range of applications in various fields such as computer science, social sciences, and natural sciences. This book is a textbook for a one-semester or two-semester course on graph theory for undergraduates or graduate students. The entire book strives to maintain a progressive style based on the difficulty of proofs and the complexity of algorithms, enabling students to deeply understand the content. The book includes discussions on proof techniques, over 1,200 exercises, more than 400 illustrations, and numerous examples, with detailed and complete proofs provided for all theorems. Although the book includes many algorithms and applications, the focus is on understanding graph theory structures and the techniques for analyzing graph theory problems.
