Book excerpt: This is a collection of three short stories by three talented authors. ~The Coin Collector~ In their small Iowa town, children start to go missing on their tenth birthday. The hot Irish girl across the street claims her creepy father, Mr. O'Darby, is a leprechaun who collects more than just gold coins, and 17-year-old Trent begins to fear for the safety of his brother, Ben, whose tenth birthday grows near. ~Lucky Strike~ Atlantic City, New Jersey – For years, the city has brought to mind bright lights, big shows, and of course, games of chance and luck. For Chance Lamont, the city has begun to lose its appeal. Luck doesn't strike everyone, she'd been told, and they were right. Her life had been steadily going downhill since her teens. Will a chance encounter with someone from her past, as well as a brush with a fabled lucky creature change her fate? Or will her only luck continue to be bad luck? ~Leprechaun~ Be careful what you wish for, it’s the classic warning. For Chicago native Noah Graham, he didn’t care about warnings. He had everything he ever wanted in life and he wasn’t even 30 yet. Yet there was one thing he still wanted, but didn’t have – a divorce. But how to divorce her without giving up half? A strange man he meets in a bar offers him a way out…for a price. Free excerpts of all the authors' other books are included in this book! Recommended for ages 16 and up.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author Sandi Lynn comes a brand new brothers series you'll want to devour! Sam I made a promise not to sleep with my new personal assistant. Too late. I'd already slept with her before I knew Grayson, my human resources director, hired her. Long story short. We first met at a café when she let me have the last apple turnover. Then I saw her again that same night at a bar. She was incredibly sexy, and she wanted me as much as I wanted her. We both agreed it was a one-time thing, and she left the following day. Imagine the shock on both our faces when she showed up for work on Monday. I wasn't a relationship type of guy and for good reasons. Julia Benton had her own reasons why she wasn't looking to get involved with anyone. So, continuing our sexual relationship was a win-win for both of us. But the more time we spent together, feelings I'd never felt before started to emerge. Then things became complicated, and she quit to pursue her dreams. I knew how much it meant to her, and I didn't care. Now that I'd lost her, I wanted, no, I needed her back in my life, and I would do anything to make sure that happened. Julia He was the sexy and domineering man who wore an expensive suit. A man who cracked the hard shell I'd built around myself for the past four years. I wasn't looking for someone to save me, but Sam unintentionally did just that. Then I was given a chance to pursue my lifelong dream. He tried to stop it from happening by showing me exactly who he was. My only focus now was starting the business I'd always wanted and leave Sam behind in the trail of a disaster he created between us. The problem was: he truly was one of a kind, and I had to use every bit of strength I had to forget him. 18+

Download or read book Combinatorics A Guided Tour written by David R. Mazur and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combinatorics is mathematics of enumeration, existence, construction, and optimization questions concerning finite sets. This text focuses on the first three types of questions and covers basic counting and existence principles, distributions, generating functions, recurrence relations, Pólya theory, combinatorial designs, error correcting codes, partially ordered sets, and selected applications to graph theory including the enumeration of trees, the chromatic polynomial, and introductory Ramsey theory. The only prerequisites are single-variable calculus and familiarity with sets and basic proof techniques. The text emphasizes the brands of thinking that are characteristic of combinatorics: bijective and combinatorial proofs, recursive analysis, and counting problem classification. It is flexible enough to be used for undergraduate courses in combinatorics, second courses in discrete mathematics, introductory graduate courses in applied mathematics programs, as well as for independent study or reading courses. What makes this text a guided tour are the approximately 350 reading questions spread throughout its eight chapters. These questions provide checkpoints for learning and prepare the reader for the end-of-section exercises of which there are over 470. Most sections conclude with Travel Notes that add color to the material of the section via anecdotes, open problems, suggestions for further reading, and biographical information about mathematicians involved in the discoveries.

The author has written the textbook to be accessible to readers without any prior background in abstract algebra or combinatorics. Part I of the second edition develops an array of mathematical tools to solve counting problems: basic counting rules, recursions, inclusion-exclusion techniques, generating functions, bijective proofs, and linear algebraic methods. These tools are used to analyze combinatorial structures such as words, permutations, subsets, functions, graphs, trees, lattice paths, and much more. Part II cover topics in algebraic combinatorics including group actions, permutation statistics, symmetric functions, and tableau combinatorics. This edition provides greater coverage of the use of ordinary and exponential generating functions as a problem-solving tool. Along with two new chapters, several new sections, and improved exposition throughout, the textbook is brimming with many examples and exercises of various levels of difficulty.
