Publisher's Synopsis
Combinatorics, the branch of mathematics that deals with the study of discrete, usually finite, structures, covers a wide range of problems not only in mathematics but also in the biological sciences, engineering, and computer science. Handbook of Combinatorics covers almost every aspect of this enormous field, including combinatorics in graph theory, theoretical computer science, optimization, and convexity theory and applications in operations research, electrical engineering, statistical mechanics, chemistry, molecular biology, pure mathematics, and computer science.
