The next three Theorems provide recursive constructions: given an indecomposable one-factorization of some AK2n, we build another. It is convenient to set up some notation. We write Nk for the set of the first k positive integers.
----- From a review of the first edition: "Altogether the book gives a comprehensive introduction to graphs, their theory and their application...The use of the text is optimized when the exercises are solved.
Thus, many colleges and universities provide a first course in graph theory that is intended primarily for mathematics majors but accessible to other students at the senior Ievel. This text is intended for such a course.
Graph study is discussed, including Euler and Hamilton cycles and trees. This is a vehicle for some easy proofs, as well as serving as another example of a data structure. Matrices and vectors are then defined.
Chapter 15 (Investments: Loans) studies the mathematics of investments (regular savings) and (compound interest) ... are accompanied by a practice exercise labeled “Your Turn,” designed primarily to test the reader's comprehension of ...
Key features of the second edition: * Includes a new chapter on the theory of voting as well as numerous new examples and exercises throughout the book * Introduces functions, vectors, matrices, number systems, scientific notations, and the ...

This second edition of A Beginner’s Guide to Finite Mathematics takes a distinctly applied approach to finite mathematics at the freshman and sophomore level.
An advanced reference containing 21 selected or consolidated papers presented at an international conference in April 1988 at Tunxi (now Hunangshan), China.
Focusing on a major part of this subject, Introduction to Combinatorial Designs, Second Edition provides a solid foundation in the classical areas of design theory as well as in more contemporary designs based on applications in a variety ...
... The purpose of the conference was to bring together those interested in sharing and listening to current problems and results in the of combinatorial designs, their applications, and other related topics. The organizing committee wishes ...
Ideal for undergraduate students in mathematics taking an introductory course in combinatorics, this text explores the different ways of arranging objects and selecting objects from a set.
