Summary of the course
This course is an introduction to combinatorics, illustrated by many
examples and applications. It covers basic ideas of combinatorics,
counting problems and non-enumerative combinatorial problems. It
includes algebraic enumeration methods and asymptotic enumeration
methods, which deal with bijections, recurrences, generating functions
and several techniques to derive asymptotics.
Prerequisites
- Basic knowledge in discrete mathematics.
- The language of the course is English
