Born in the 18th century when Leonhard Euler solved the puzzle of the seven bridges of Königsberg, graph theory has become a foundational tool in mathematics. It studies relationships through nodes (vertices) and the links (edges) that connect them, transforming the complexity of systems — from friendship networks to airline routes — into elegant abstractions that reveal underlying structure and interaction.
Maria Chudnovsky from Princeton University is a leading mathematician in the field. In this episode of The Joy of Why, Chudnovsky talks with co-host Janna Levin about how she got into graph theory, solved the decades-old perfect graph problem, and used it to plan her wedding seating chart. Chudnovsky also reflects on her appearance in commercials as a “superstar mathematician,” and how her background primed her for a discipline that transcends language, culture and time.
