Ademir Hujdurović

Research Interests

My research work is primarily focused on graph theory, particularly the study of the properties and characterization of graphs that possess a certain degree of symmetry. I obtained PhD in mathematics in 2013 at the University of Primorska under the supervision of Prof. Dragan Marušič and Prof. Klavdija Kutnar.
