This comprehensive textbook provides an accessible introduction to combinatorics, enriched with insights from Solomon Golomb and illustrative examples. Core concepts in combinatorics are presented in an engaging narrative, suitable for undergraduate study at various levels. The structure emphasizes cohesive development of ideas, with early coverage of the Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion and a unified treatment of permutations later on. The conversational style, combined with the emphasis on independent study, makes this approach particularly effective.
The book is organized into three parts:
Chapter Zero: This flexible chapter can be used to cover essential background topics or serve as a standalone problem-solving course.
Chapters 1-3: These chapters cover core topics in combinatorics, including combinations, generating functions, and permutations.
Chapters 4-6: These chapters present additional topics, such as Fibonacci numbers, finite groups, and combinatorial structures.
Numerous illuminating examples are included throughout the book, along with exercises of varying difficulty levels. Three appendices provide additional exercises, examples, and solutions to selected problems.
Solomon Golombs Course on Undergraduate Combinatorics is an ideal resource for introducing mathematics students to combinatorics at any stage of their program. While no formal prerequisites are required, readers should possess a mathematical curiosity and a willingness to engage in the books numerous entertaining challenges.
