The algorithmic solution of problems has always been one of the major concerns of mathematics. For a long time such solutions were based on an intuitive notion of algorithm. It is only in this century that metamathematical problems have led to the...

Beginning with its origins in the pioneering work of W.T. Tutte in 1947, this monograph systematically traces through some of the impressive developments in matching theory. A graph is matchable if it has a perfect matching. A matching covered graph is...

This richly illustrated textbook explores the amazing interaction between combinatorics, geometry, number theory, and analysis which arises in the interplay between polyhedra and lattices. Highly accessible to advanced undergraduates, as well as...

This volume develops the depth and breadth of the mathematics underlying the construction and analysis of Hadamard matrices, and their use in the construction of combinatorial designs. At the same time, it pursues current research in their numerous...

The present volume is a collection of a dozen survey articles, dedicated to the memory of the famous Hungarian geometer, Laszlo Fejes Toth, on the 99th anniversary of his birth. Each article reviews recent progress in an important field in intuitive,...

This introduction to the recent theory of abstract tubes describes the framework for establishing improved inclusion-exclusion identities and Bonferroni inequalities, which are provably at least as sharp as their classical counterparts while involving...

A famous theorem in the theory of linear spaces states that every finite linear space has at least as many lines as points. This result of De Bruijn and Erds led to the conjecture that every linear space with "few lines" canbe obtained from a...

This volume examines mathematics as a product of the human mind and analyzes the language of "pure mathematics" from various advanced-level sources. Through analysis of the foundational texts of mathematics, it is demonstrated that math is a...

It is general consensus that Combinatorics has developed into a full-fledged mathematical discipline whose beginnings as a charming pastime have long since been left behind and whose great signifi cance for other branches of both pure and applied...

This volume, as Andrew M. Odlzyko writes in the foreword, "commemorates and celebrates the life and achievements of an extraordinary person." Originally conceived as an 80th birthday tribute to Herbert Wilf, the well-known combinatorialist, the...

In January 1989 a Workshop on Algorithms, Word Problems and Classi- fication in Combinatorial Group Theory was held at MSRl. This was part of a year-long program on Geometry and Combinatorial Group Theory or- ganised by Adyan, Brown, Gersten and...

Discrete structures model a vast array of objects ranging from DNA sequences to internet networks. The theory of generating functions provides an algebraic framework for discrete structures to be enumerated using mathematical tools. This book is the...

Since the publication of the first edition of our book, geometric algorithms and combinatorial optimization have kept growing at the same fast pace as before. Nevertheless, we do not feel that the ongoing research has made this book outdated. Rather, it...

This volume collects together research and survey papers written by invited speakers of the conference celebrating the 70th birthday of Laszlo Lovasz. The topics covered include classical subjects such as extremal graph theory, coding theory, design...

This volume is comprised of articles providing new results on variational and hemivariational inequalities with applications to Contact Mechanics unavailable from other sources. The book will be of particular interest to graduate students and young...

One service mathematics has rendered the 'Et moi, ..., si j'avait su comment en revenir, It has put common sense back je n'y serais point al!e.' human race. Jules Verne where it belongs, on the topmost shelf next to the dusty canister labelled 'discarded...

In the past two decades, breakthroughs in computer technology have made a tremendous impact on optimization. In particular, availability of parallel computers has created substantial interest in exploring the use of parallel processing for solving...

Magic squares are among the more popular mathematical recreations. Over the last 50 years, many generalizations of "magic" ideas have been applied to graphs. Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in "magic labelings" due to...

Orthogonal designs have proved fundamental to constructing code division multiple antenna systems for more efficient mobile communications. Starting with basic theory, this book develops the algebra and combinatorics to create new communications modes...

This book explores fundamental aspects of geometric network optimisation with applications to a variety of real world problems. It presents, for the first time in the literature, a cohesive mathematical framework within which the properties of such...

This IMA Volume in Mathematics and its Appllcations GRAPH THEORY AND SPARSE MATRIX COMPUTATION is based on the proceedings of a workshop that was an integraI part of the 1991- 92 IMA program on "Applied Linear AIgebra." The purpose of the...
