PUBLISHER'S DESCRIPTION
Provides a thorough, up-to-date treatment of combinatorics
that covers topics such as asymptotics, graphs, and evaluating
sums
Presents the computer algorithms in easy-to-read pseudo-code
Foreshadows difficult topics early in the book to prepare
students for more in-depth discussions later on
Incorporates definitions, theorems, proofs, examples, and
nearly 300 illustrations as pedagogical elements of the
exposition
Includes numerous problems, along with many solutions and
hints, that range from the reinforcement of basic skills to
creative problem solving
Offers a companion website that contains extensive graph
theory informational resources as well as a computational engine
to help with calculations for some of the exercises
Combinatorial Methods with Computer Applications
provides in-depth coverage of recurrences, generating functions,
partitions, and permutations, along with some of the most
interesting graph and network topics, design constructions, and
finite geometries. Requiring only a foundation in discrete
mathematics, it can serve as the textbook in a combinatorial
methods course or in a combined graph theory and combinatorics
course.
After an introduction to combinatorics, the book explores six
systematic approaches within a comprehensive framework:
sequences, solving recurrences, evaluating summation
expressions, binomial coefficients, partitions and permutations,
and integer methods. The author then focuses on graph theory,
covering topics such as trees, isomorphism, automorphism,
planarity, coloring, and network flows. The final chapters
discuss automorphism groups in algebraic counting methods and
describe combinatorial designs, including Latin squares, block
designs, projective planes, and affine planes. In addition, the
appendix supplies background material on relations, functions,
algebraic systems, finite fields, and vector spaces.
Paving the way for students to understand and perform
combinatorial calculations, this accessible text presents the
discrete methods necessary for applications to algorithmic
analysis, performance evaluation, and statistics as well as for
the solution of combinatorial problems in engineering and the
social sciences.

Graph
Theory and Its Applications
-- 2nd Edition
ISBN: 158488505X
Pub Date: 9/22/2005
Number of Pages: 800
List Price: $84.95
PUBLISHER'S DESCRIPTION
- Offers a comprehensive but accessible, applications-driven
treatment of graph theory suitable for a variety of graduate and
advanced undergraduate courses
- Provides better coverage of algorithms and algebraic and
topological graph theory than any other text
- Supplies hundreds of drawings that promote spatial intuition
- Incorporates several levels of carefully designed exercises
that promote students' retention and develop and sharpen their
problem-solving skills
Already an international bestseller, with the release of this
greatly enhanced second edition, Graph Theory and Its
Applications is now an even better choice as a textbook for a
variety of courses -- a textbook that will continue to serve
your students as a reference for years to come.
The superior explanations, broad coverage, and abundance of
illustrations and exercises that positioned this as the premier
graph theory text remain, but are now augmented by a broad range
of improvements. Nearly 200 pages have been added for this
edition, including nine new sections and hundreds of new
exercises, mostly non-routine.
What else is new?
- New chapters on measurement and analytic graph theory
- Supplementary exercises in each chapter - ideal for
reinforcing, reviewing, and testing.
- Solutions and hints, often illustrated with figures, to
selected exercises - nearly 50 pages worth
- Reorganization and extensive revisions in more than half of
the existing chapters for smoother flow of the exposition
- Foreshadowing - the first three chapters now preview a number
of concepts, mostly via the exercises, to pique the interest of reader
Gross and Yellen take a comprehensive approach to graph theory
that integrates careful exposition of classical developments
with emerging methods, models, and practical needs. Their
unparalleled treatment provides a text ideal for a two-semester
course and a variety of one-semester classes, from an
introductory one-semester course to courses slanted toward
classical graph theory, operations research, data structures and
algorithms, or algebra and topology.

Handbook of
Graph Theory
Jonathan L Gross
Columbia University, New York, New York, USA
Jay Yellen
Rollins College, Winter Park, Florida, USA
Series: Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications Volume: 25
Cat. #: 8522
Number of Pages: 1192
ISBN: 1584880902
List Price: $119.95
Publication Date: 12/29/2003
FEATURES
- Provides a unified, up-to-date
resource on graph theory
- Explores the algorithmic and
optimization approaches of graph theory as well as "pure" graph
theory
- Unifies the diversity of graph
theory terminology and notation
- Bridges theory and practice with
many easy-to-read algorithms
Includes a glossary in each
chapter-more than 1000 entries in total
PUBLISHER'S DESCRIPTION
The Handbook of Graph Theory is the most comprehensive
single-source guide to graph theory ever published. Best-selling
authors Jonathan Gross and Jay Yellen assembled an outstanding
team of experts to contribute overviews of more than 50 of the
most significant topics in graph theory-including those related to
algorithmic and optimization approaches as well as "pure" graph
theory. They then carefully edited the compilation to produce a
unified, authoritative work ideal for ready reference.
Designed and edited with non-experts in mind, the Handbook of
Graph Theory makes information easy to find and easy to
understand. The treatment of each topic includes lists of
essential definitions and facts accompanied by examples, tables,
remarks, and in some areas, conjectures and open problems. Each
section contains a glossary of terms relevant to that topic and an
extensive bibliography of references that collectively form an
extensive guide to the primary research literature.
"...an excellent vehicle for
either a class text or a self-study reference. The writing is
clear... highly recommended text on graph theory that is most
suitable for an advanced undergraduate in either engineering or
computer science."

Psychology

PAPERBACK
JUNE 2001
FROM DOVER PUBLICATIONS
From Book News, Inc.
This is a reprint of a work published in 1987, by John Wiley
& Sons, with a brief new preface by the two authors and a new
supplementary bibliography aimed at helping readers track recent
trends in the field. Still solid after more than a decade, the
book introduces the foundations and basic issues of topological
graph theory, emphasizing graph embedding, but also covering the
connections between topological graph theory and other areas of
mathematics. Intended for first-year graduate students, students
with a background in undergraduate discrete mathematics, and
mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists needing a
reference.Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR
The publisher, John Wiley & Sons
This definitive treatment written by well-known experts
emphasizes graph imbedding while providing thorough coverage of
the connections between topological graph theory and other areas
of mathematics: spaces, finite groups, combinatorial algorithms,
graphical enumeration, and block design. Almost every result of
studies in this field is covered, including most proofs and
methods. Its numerous examples and clear presentation simplify
conceptually difficult material, making the text accessible
to... read more --This text refers to an out of print or
unavailable edition of this title.
Book Description
Clear, comprehensive introduction emphasizes graph imbedding
but also covers thoroughly the connections between topological
graph theory and other areas of mathematics. Discussion of
imbeddings into surfaces is combined with a complete proof of
the classification of closed surfaces. Authors explore the role
of voltage graphs in the derivation of genus formulas, explain
the Ringel-Youngs theorem—a proof that revolutionized the field
of graph theory—and examine the genus of a group, including
imbeddings of Cayley graphs. 1987 edition. Many figures.
