Division of Discrete Mathematics was established in early 2011. The research activity of the Division’s members is in the area of combinatorial and discrete mathematics, in particular design theory, graph theory, and coding theory.<\/p>\n\n\n

Finished Research Projects<\/p>\n\t\t\t
It should be noted that in 2010, Division members participated in the organisation of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Information Security and Related Combinatorics<\/a> summer school. Furthermore, in 2021 the conference Combinatorial Designs and Codes<\/a> was organised as a satellite event of the 8th European Congress of Mathematics, and in 2023 the conference Rijeka Conference on Combinatorial Objects and Their Applications<\/a> was organised. Members of the Division are actively involved in the international scientific community, collaborating with mathematicians from different countries and participating at international scientific conferences.<\/p>\n\n\n Selected Research Papers<\/p>\n\t\t\t Members of the Division participate in the implementation of the Doctoral Program in Mathematics (joint program of J. J. Strossmayer University of Osijek, University of Rijeka, University of Split, University of Zagreb) organizing Finite Mathematics Seminar. As a part of the Seminar, members of the Division present their own research work as well as other relevant articles in the area of research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We point out that Andrea \u0160vob received the University of Rijeka Foundation Award for the calendar year 2024, in the category of scientists – biomedical and natural sciences, and the University of Rijeka Foundation Award for the calendar year 2015, in the category of young scientists – natural and technical sciences. The University of Rijeka Foundation Award for the academic year 2008\/2009, in the category of young scientists – natural and technical sciences, was also received by Vedrana Mikuli\u0107 Crnkovi\u0107, who is also a recipient of the State Award for Science for 2020 in the category of promotion of science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Members of the Division of Discrete Mathematics participate in the delivery of courses within the study programmes of the Faculty of Mathematics, as well as teaching mathematics courses in study programmes led by other faculties at University of Rijeka. Together and in collaboration with other faculty staff, they work on designing and delivering each individual course with the aim of improving the quality of study programmes and strengthening the connections between courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Division members use the Laboratory for Discrete Mathematics for their scientific work. The laboratory is also used for teaching in the graduate study programme Discrete Mathematics and Applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two Division members received an award for special contribution to the development of e-learning at the University of Rijeka. One for the course Applications of Computers in Mathematics (academic year 2009\/2010) and another for the course Models of Geometry (academic year 2010\/2011). Furthermore, Division staff have received the University of Rijeka Teaching Excellence Award: Ivona Novak and Andrea \u0160vob for the academic year 2015\/2016, Sanja Rukavina and Marina \u0160imac for the academic year 2017\/2018, Nina Mostarac and Andrea \u0160vob for the academic year 2019\/2020, Tin Zrinski for the academic year 2022\/2023, Matea Zubovi\u0107 \u017dutolija for the academic year 2023\/2024, Daniel \u0160anko for the academic year 2024\/2025, and Ana \u0160umberac for the academic year 2025\/2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Division members are authors and presenters of numerous popular lectures and workshops delivered to primary and secondary school students with the aim of promoting mathematics and mathematics studies, and actively participate in many professional projects and in the work of numerous associations such as the Society of Mathematicians and Physicists, the MatRi Alumni Club, Zlatni rez, Universitas, and the Centre for Technical Culture Rijeka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vedrana Mikuli\u0107 Crnkovi\u0107 leads two professional projects: Erasmus+ projekt SciMaG<\/a> (1 September 2023 \u2013 31 August 2026) i Erasmus+ projekt InAMath<\/a> (1 September 2020 \u2013 28 February 2023).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chair: Assoc.
