Professor of Mathematics Debra Boutin gave a research talk titled "Determining and Distinguishing Cartesian Products" at the 8th Slovenian Graph Theory Conference at Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, held June 21-27.
In this talk, Boutin presented results on sets of nodes that determine symmetry and sets of nodes that break symmetry in a family of networks created using a product operator. This family of networks includes important and well-known subfamilies and Boutin's results generalize to broader families of infinite networks.
