Discover the Connections between Different Structures and Fields

Discrete Structures and Their Interactions highlights the connections among various discrete structures, including graphs, directed graphs, hypergraphs, partial orders, finite topologies, and simplicial complexes. It also explores their relationships to classical areas of mathematics, such as linear and multilinear algebra, analysis, probability, logic, and topology.

Arvustused

"The book is a collection of examples, each of which shows either how discrete structures interact with each other or how discrete structures interact with other parts of mathematics. I am certain I will use some examples I found in this book when I teach combinatorics in the upcoming semester." Miklós Bóna, MAA Reviews, December 2013

Jason I. Brown is a professor of mathematics at Dalhousie University. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Toronto and has written over 70 refereed articles. His research interests include graphs, hypergraphs, partial order, finite topologies, and simplicial complexes, with a focus on the applications of other fields of mathematics to discrete problems. His mathematical research that uncovered how the Beatles played the opening chord of "A Hard Days Night" was featured in various media, including NPR and BBC radio, Guitar Player Magazine, and the Wall Street Journal website.
