A Course in Enumeration (Graduate Texts in Mathematics Book 238) 2007th Edition by Martin Aigner (PDF)

Description

Combinatorial enumeration is a readily accessible subject full of easily stated, but sometimes tantalizingly difficult problems. This book leads the reader in a leisurely way from basic notions of combinatorial enumeration to a variety of topics, ranging from algebra to statistical physics. The book is organized in three parts: Basics, Methods, and Topics. The aim is to introduce readers to a fascinating field, and to offer a sophisticated source of information for professional mathematicians desiring to learn more. There are 666 exercises, and every chapter ends with a highlight section, discussing in detail a particularly beautiful or famous result.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Enumerative combinatorics often gets the handbook or encyclopedia treatment owing to the enormous breadth and discontinuity of the subject and the seeming infinite binomial identities that doge the subject. Such variety, much complication. On the flip side, you might find a tome based on a pet-species-framework that tries to be the one finite ring to rule them all, and haz a cheezburger at the same time. Lucky for us, we have a happy medium right here in this book. It’s well-organized and cohesively laid out. The author addresses the issues of mixed-bag wikinomics vs. exposition from the start, taking his cue from John Riordan’s earlier attempts at unification of identities. Concrete in focus (as enumeration should be), the author stays away from name dropping in the Grand Eponymous Taxonomy game of inter-disciplinary authorial backscratching. Nor is it heavily weighted toward “word” trends in combinatorics, or even the analytic generating function aspects (both are still discussed in limited form). You’ve probably have your own sources for that, and the book is thick enough already. It has a weakness to my mind, it’s a lack of “open problems” and relatedness to open problems recently solved or otherwise.
