The Rainbow Connection is a sexy Sufi narrative related in the style of a second person gamebook, an affectionate pastiche of the original Choose Your Own Adventure series. The book is not a normal book: it is a tree with multiple branches and endings. At key moments in the narrative, you are given choices that will determine the thread of plot to be played out. Your goal: to read and re-read, choose and choose again until you locate the "winning" ending! "You" are a theology student living in a distant future dystopia. The UK is now part of the Republic of the Martian Communist Revolution, a fundamentalist police state run according to an extreme literalist reading of a form of spiritual hyper-Marxism founded by a mysterious figure known as "the Tailor of Design". What is the Rainbow Connection that would revolt against this? Who are the Dread K? Will you assassinate or seek join the dissident gnostic Hal Age? The choice is yours to make.
Rainbow connections are natural combinatorial measures that are used in applications to secure the transfer of classified information between agencies in communication networks. Rainbow Connections of Graphs covers this new and emerging topic in graph theory and brings together a majority of the results that deal with the concept of rainbow connections, first introduced by Chartrand et al. in 2006. The authors begin with an introduction to rainbow connectedness, rainbow coloring, and rainbow connection number. The work is organized into the following categories, computation of the exact values of the rainbow connection numbers for some special graphs, algorithms and complexity analysis, upper bounds in terms of other graph parameters, rainbow connection for dense and sparse graphs, for some graph classes and graph products, rainbow k-connectivity and k-rainbow index, and, rainbow vertex-connection number. Rainbow Connections of Graphs appeals to researchers and graduate students in the field of graph theory. Conjectures, open problems and questions are given throughout the text with the hope for motivating young graph theorists and graduate students to do further study in this subject.
World's Greatest Children's Songs includes both traditional and modern folk songs, along with amusing parodies, teaching songs, and more. It also features a large number of more recent hits that children love, including songs that originated on popular television shows (such as Sesame Street, The Muppets, The Wiggles) and tunes from unforgettable movies. The arrangements are easy enough to be played by children at the early intermediate level, yet musical enough for adults to enjoy performing them as well. Lyrics and chord symbols are provided.

This is an open access book. It is with great pleasure and honor to announce The 6th International Conference of Combinatorics, Graph Theory, and Network Topology which will be held from 15th – 16th November 2022 in the University of Jember, East Java, Indonesia. It is the fifth international conference organized by CGANT. It is the sixth international conference organized by CGANT Research Group University of Jember in cooperation with Indonesian Combinatorics Society (INACOBMS). The conference is held to welcome participants from many countries, with broad and diverse research interests of mathematics especially combinatorical study. The mission is to become an annual international forum in the future, where, civil society organization and representative, research students, academics and researchers, scholars, scientist, teachers and practitioners from all over the world could meet in and exchange an idea to share and to discuss theoretical and practical knowledge about mathematics and its applications. The aim of the sixth conference is to present and discuss the latest research that contributes to the sharing of new theoretical, methodological and empirical knowledge and a better understanding in the area mathematics, application of mathematics as well as mathematics education.
This proceedings volume addresses advances in global optimization—a multidisciplinary research field that deals with the analysis, characterization and computation of global minima and/or maxima of nonlinear, non-convex and nonsmooth functions in continuous or discrete forms. The volume contains selected papers from the third biannual World Congress on Global Optimization in Engineering & Science (WCGO), held in the Yellow Mountains, Anhui, China on July 8-12, 2013. The papers fall into eight topical sections: mathematical programming; combinatorial optimization; duality theory; topology optimization; variational inequalities and complementarity problems; numerical optimization; stochastic models and simulation and complex simulation and supply chain analysis.
