Formal methods

The study of symbiosis and of biological interactions more in general is the motivation for the work conducted within BAMBOO, but runs in parallel with another important objective. This concerns to (re)visit classical combinatorial (mainly counting / enumerating) and algorithmic problems on strings and (hyper)graphs, and to explore the new variants / original combinatorial and algorithmic problems that are raised by the main areas of application of this project. As the objectives of these formal methods are motivated by biological questions, they are briefly described together with those questions in the next section.
