Probabilistic Methods in Combinatorial Analysis

by Vladimir N. Sachkov and Vladimir N Sachkov

Book Overview

This 1997 work explores the role of probabilistic methods for solving combinatorial problems. These methods not only provide the means of efficiently using such notions as characteristic and generating functions, the moment method and so on but also let us use the powerful technique of limit theorems. The basic objects under investigation are nonnegative matrices, partitions and mappings of finite sets, with special emphasis on permutations and graphs,...
