Frank Harary would be pleased to be a lead obituary in today's (Tuesday's)
NY Times. It is a nice smart piece. Someindvertent fun stuff by the
author, Jeremy Pearce:
"It [gra[h theory] is frequent used to phodel physical or abstract
problems in chemistry, computer networks, transportation lines AND EVEN
SOCIOLOGY..." [my caps]. "The elegance of the writing in _Graph Theory_
had been crucial to the specialty's acceptance. `Harary made a beautiful
presentation of the theory that hasn't been equaled since'" said Dr
Stephen Hedetniemi, comp sci prof at Clemson.
"He was a founder of The Journal of Graph Theory and The Journal of
Combinatorial Theory." And of INSNA and the Sunbelt!
