Extremal Combinatorial Problems And Their Applications

Download or read book Extremal Combinatorial Problems and Their Applications written by B.S. Stechkin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-08-19 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combinatorial research has proceeded vigorously in Russia over the last few decades, based on both translated Western sources and original Russian material. The present volume extends the extremal approach to the solution of a large class of problems, including some that were hitherto regarded as exclusively algorithmic, and broadens the choice of theoretical bases for modelling real phenomena in order to solve practical problems. Audience: Graduate students of mathematics and engineering interested in the thematics of extremal problems and in the field of combinatorics in general. Can be used both as a textbook and as a reference handbook.
