Graph Theory and its Applications
Short vita
I got my diploma degree in 2000 under the supervision of Gerhard J Woeginger from the TU Graz (Austria) and my Ph.D. degree in 2003 under the supervisions of Peter F. Stadler and Josef Leydold from the University of Vienna (Austria). I was two years postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in Leipzig (Germany) and one year postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Mathematical Engineering Universite Catholique de Louvain (Belgium). I was more than five years at the Department of Mathematics of Isik University, Istanbul and two years at the Department of Mathematics Izmir Institute of Technology, Izmir (Turkey).
