Basic knowledge of certain mathematical structures is indispensable for the understanding of important concepts in computer science.
Why is it so hard to solve the Traveling Salesman Problem? Why is RSA a secure asymmetric cryptosystem?
In this course, we will briefly discuss some of the core concepts, such as finite fields, graphs, and basic logic.
The goal is to give students some fundamental background about those structures before the semester starts where they can then apply their knowledge.
The course will consist of a theoretical part where the main topics are presented and a practical part where little exercises have to be solved.
