Principles And Techniques In Combinatorics

The development of computer technology in the second half of the 20th century is a main cause of the interest in finite mathematics in general and combinatorial theory in particular. In pure mathematics, combinatorial methods have been used with advantage in such diverse fields as probability, algebra, number theory, set theory, and mathematical logic. In contrast to the wide range of combinatorial problems and the multiplicity of methods that have been devised to deal with them stands the lack of a central unifying theory. This book gives an overview of recent trends and results in a large part of combinatorics and related topics. The book presents state of the art topics, written by leading experts in combinatorics, features in-depth surveys of current research areas in combinatorics in the broad sense, ranging from applied graph theory to mathematical programming.
