Discrete Mathematics


This class is an introduction solving counting and structural problems. In the first section we see several examples of typical combinatorial problems. Also providing basic information on sets, proof techniques, enumeration.. In the next few sections of the class, we explore enumerative ideas, including the pigeonhole principle and inclusion/exclusion. At the end we study enumerative functions and the relations between them.

Objectives

Student familiarization with the general principles of the enumerative combinatorics, like counting combinations and counting permutations and the applications of combinatorics in computer science.

Prerequisites

Algebraic Structures Basic Set Theory Basic definitions about functions

Syllabus

Combinations, Permutations , Penguin principle , Generating functions , Propositional Calculus, Boolean Algebras
