Network Theory is a branch of applied mathematics that studies the behavior of networks, which are structures composed of nodes and edges. Networks are used to model a wide variety of systems, including social networks, the Internet, and biological networks. Network Theory can be used to analyze the structure and dynamics of these systems and to understand how they function.
