'''E. Sampathkumar''' (born 10 June 1936) is a professor emeritus<ref>{{cite web|url=http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/id.php?id=84222 |title=The mathematics genealogy - E. Sampathkumar |publisher=Mathematics Genealogy Project |date= |accessdate=2010-02-03}}</ref> of [[graph theory]] from [[University of Mysore]]. He has contributed to [[domination number]], [[bipartite double cover]], and [[reconstruction conjecture|reconstruction theory]], as well as other areas of graph theory. He was chairman of the department of mathematics of the Karnataka university, Dharwar<ref>[http://www.kud.ernet.in/PG_Deparments/Science_Departments/Mathamatics/maths.htm Karnataka University] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080613160628/http://www.kud.ernet.in/PG_Deparments/Science_Departments/Mathamatics/maths.htm |date=13 June 2008 }}</ref> and the University of Mysore (1992–95).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uni-mysore.ac.in/mathematics/|title=Mathematics|publisher=University of Mysore|accessdate=3 February 2010}}</ref>

Born and raised in Mallur village, [[Channapatna]] Taluk, [[Ramanagaram]] (District), outside of Bangalore, he earned a M.Sc. (1955) in mathematics from Central College of [[Bangalore University]], and a Ph.D. (1965) in mathematics (Some studies in [[Boolean algebra (logic)|Boolean algebra]]) from the Karnataka University, Dharwar. He was a lecturer at the department of mathematics [[Karnatak College, Dharwar]] (1960–65), and then professor at the department of mathematics, Karnatak University, Dharwar (1966–1988).
After retiring in 1996 from Mysore University (1989–96), he has been working for the [[Department of Science and Technology (India)]] as a principal investigator on several projects in graph theory. He was head at DOS in Mathematics, University of Mysore (1992–1995).

==Contributions==
Professor E. Sampathkumar is the first one in India to teach Graph Theory as a subject in any of the Indian universities.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.adma.co.in//|title=The Academy of Discrete Mathematics and Applications |publisher=The Academy of Discrete Mathematics and Applications|accessdate=9 March 2018}}</ref> He introduced it as a special paper in 1970-71 for MSc Mathematics students at [[Karnatak University]], Dharwad. Per [[Google Scholar]], his [[H-index]] is 21 and he has over 1500 citations.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=t5ItUtQAAAAJ&view_op=list_works//|title=Prof. E. Sampathkumar|accessdate=9 March 2018}}</ref> Since 2005, his birthday, June 10, is celebrated as Graph Theory day in India.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.adma.co.in//|title=The Academy of Discrete Mathematics and Applications |publisher=The Academy of Discrete Mathematics and Applications e|accessdate=9 March 2018}}</ref>
