Wilfried Imrich (born 25 May 1941) is an Austrian mathematician working mainly in graph theory. He is known for his work on graph products, and authored the books Product Graphs: Structure and Recognition (Wiley, 2000, with Sandi Klavžar),[1] Topics in graph theory: Graphs and their Cartesian Products (AK Peters, 2008, with Klavžar and Douglas F. Rall),[2] and Handbook of Product Graphs (2nd ed., CRC, 2011, with Klavžar and Richard Hammack).[3]
Imrich earned his doctorate from the University of Vienna in 1965, under the joint supervision of Nikolaus Hofreiter and Edmund Hlawka.[4] He has worked as a researcher for IBM in Vienna, as an assistant professor at TU Wien and the University at Albany, SUNY, as a postdoctoral researcher at Lomonosov University, and, since 1973, as a full professor at the University of Leoben in Austria.[5] He retired in 2009, becoming a professor emeritus at Leoben.[6] He is on board of advisors of the journal Ars Mathematica Contemporanea. Since 2012 he has been a member of the Academia Europaea.[5]
