"The primary aim of this book is to present a coherent introduction to the subject, suitable as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students in mathematics and computer science. It provides a systematic treatment of the theory of graphs without sacrificing its intuitive and aesthetic appeal. Commonly used proof techniques are described and illustrated, and a wealth of exercises - of varying levels of difficulty - are provided...

"Graphs and Applications is based on a highly successful Open University course and the authors have paid particular attention to the presentation, clarity and arrangement of the material, making it ideally suited for independent study and classroom use. An important part of learning graph theory is problem solving; for this reason large numbers of examples, problems (with full solutions) and exercises (without solutions) are included. Many chapters...

"We introduce a theory of stratifications of noncommutative stacks (i.e., presentable stable-categories), and we prove a reconstruction theorem that expresses them in terms of their strata and gluing data. This reconstruction theorem is compatible with symmetric monoidal structures, and with more general operadic structures such as En-monoidal structures. We also provide a suite of fundamental operations for constructing new stratifications from old...
