Introduction to Combinatorial Optimization

“This book introduces combinatorial optimization with a methodology-oriented organization. It targets undergraduate and graduate students and contains a good mix of theoretical results (with proof) and examples, which helps the reader acquire ideas and concepts. The chapters end with a list of exercises for the students.” (Francisco Chicano, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2024)

“The book can appropriately be used as a textbook in a graduate course. All the algorithms are clearly explained and presented. It is a very valuable book for successful application of real problems from combinatorial optimization. … this book is an excellent contribution to the field of combinatorial optimization, and it is highly recommended to the students and researchers in optimization.” (Samir Kumar Neogy, zbMATH 1512.90001, 2023)
