Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

Combinatorics deals with ways of arranging and distributing mathematical objects, and involves ideas from geometry, algebra and analysis. The theory has broad applications, including codes, circuit design and algorithm complexity. Graph theory, enumeration, external problems, projective geometry, designs, colourings and codes, amongst others, are dealt with in a unified way.

Críticas:

'Both for the professional with a passing interest in combinatorics and for the students for whom it is primarily intended, this is a valuable book.' The Times Higher Education Supplement

'... it will no doubt become a standard choice among the many texts on combinatorics ... fascinating ... it is highly recommended reading.' Dieter Jungnichel, Zentralblatt MATH

'This well written textbook can be highly recommended to any student of combinatorics and, because of its breadth, has many new things to tell researchers in the field also.' EMS

'This is a fascinating introduction to almost all aspects of combinatorics. Plenty of interesting problems, concrete examples, useful notes and references complement the main text. This book can be highly recommended to everyone interested in combinatorics.' Monatshefe für Mathematik

'... becoming a modern classic ... every good student should progress to this book at some stage: it is a wonderful source of elegant proofs and tantalising examples. No-one will find it easy, but every budding or established combinatorialist will be enriched by it ... This text is unashamedly and impressively mathematical; it will challenge and inform every reader and is a very significant achievement.' The Mathematical Gazette
