FRIENDLY WARNING: This is a mathematical course. You MUST ALREADY BE comfortable and familiar with mathematical proofs related to algorithms.

IMPORTANT: This advanced-algorithms course has the following prerequisites.
1) Discrete mathematics: a one semester course, equivalent to 051110 VO Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science 1 at University of Vienna covering the following topics. Set theory, functions and relations, combinatorics (counting), applications of pigeonhole principle, etc., several proofs using the principle of mathematical induction, graph theory, and linear algebra (Gaussian elimination, linear independence, subspaces, dimension, rank, etc.).

2) Data structures and algorithms: two one-semester courses, equivalent to 051024 VU Algorithms and Data Structures 1 and 052100 VU Algorithms and Data Structures 2 at University of Vienna covering the following topics. Big-O notation and asymptotic analysis; lists, stacks, and queues and their applications; trees and binary trees: tree traversals (inorder, preorder, postorder); graphs: adjacency list and adjacency matrix representations, depth-first search, breadth first-search, minimum spanning tree algorithms, etc.; searching and sorting algorithms; divide and conquer algorithms; greedy algorithms, dynamic programming, network flow, etc.

3) Probability: a one-semester course, equivalent to 051130 VO Einführende Statistik (2020W)

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

4 homeworks and 4 quizzes (exams). Each worth between 10 and 15 points; in total, 100 points. Quizzes (exams) will be closed-book and closed-notes. No help is allowed during the quizzes (exams). What is allowed for the homeworks will be announced on Moodle. Needless to mention, you are not allowed to copy solutions from someone or from the Internet---neither for homeworks and nor for quizzes (exams). Doing so attracts disciplinary action.
