Applied Combinatorics
by S. E. Payne
Publisher: University of Colorado 2003
Number of pages: 216
Description:
The course at CU-Denver for which these notes were assembled, Math 6409 (Applied Combinatorics), deals more or less entirely with enumerative combinatorics. We have tried to include some truly traditional material and some truly nontrivial material, albeit with a treatment that makes it accessible to the student. We shall derive a variety of techniques for counting, some purely combinatorial, some involving algebra in a moderately sophisticated way.
