摘要:Graph theory solves, via a good modelization, a very large number of problems in different areas. This is why, this theory has been having an exponential increase in the last years. One of the basic problems that this theory solves is to obtain the shortest path between two points. In order to illustrate this problem, to motivate its study and to introduce the student in the world of the mathematical modelization and its large range of possibilities, we present a specific case: to help the police to catch the authors of a theft. The solution consists of representing the city where it took place by a no directed positive weighted graph and to apply the Floyd’s algorithm mixed with a reasoning of combinatorial type. At the end of the exercise, we can assure that the thieves cannot escape, by using another concept of graph theory, the vertex-cut.
