Start Doing Graph Theory


Mikhail Lavrov

That's me! If you prefer, you can also call me Misha, especially if you're not sure how to pronounce "Mikhail".

When I'm not writing textbooks, I do research in combinatorics, and teach all kinds of math. I have taught graph theory and other topics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (2017-2020), Kennesaw State University (2020-2025), and Canada/USA Mathcamp (every summer since 2014). I received my Ph.D. from the ACO (Algorithms, Combinatorics, and Optimization) program at Carnegie Mellon University, in 2017.

I have recently moved to Connecticut, where my wife Elizabeth Chang-Davidson teaches and does research in mechanical engineering.
