Download or read book Progress in Algebraic Combinatorics written by Eiichi Bannai and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume consists of thirteen papers on algebraic combinatorics and related areas written by leading experts around the world. There are four survey papers illustrating the following currently active branches of algebraic combinatorics: vertex operator algebras, spherical designs, Kerdock codes and related combinatorial objects, and geometry of matrices. The remaining nine papers are original research articles covering a wide range of disciplines, from classical topics such as permutation groups and finite geometry, to modern topics such as spin models and invariants of 3-manifolds. Two papers occupy nearly half the volume and present a comprehensive account of new concepts: ``Combinatorial Cell Complexes'' by M. Aschbacher and ``Quantum Matroids'' by P. Terwilliger. Terwilliger's theory of quantum matroids unites a part of the theory of finite geometries and a part of the theory of distance-regular graphs--great progess is expected in this field. K. Nomura's paper bridges the classical and the modern by establishing a connection between certain bipartite distance-regular graphs and spin models. All contributors to this volume were invited speakers at the conference ``Algebraic Combinatorics'' in Fukuoka, Japan (1993) and participated in the Research Institute in the Mathematical Sciences (RIMS) research project on algebraic combinatorics held at Kyoto University in 1994.

Download or read book Open Problems in Algebraic Combinatorics written by Christine Berkesch and published by American Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2024-08-21 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their preface, the editors describe algebraic combinatorics as the area of combinatorics concerned with exact, as opposed to approximate, results and which puts emphasis on interaction with other areas of mathematics, such as algebra, topology, geometry, and physics. It is a vibrant area, which saw several major developments in recent years. The goal of the 2022 conference Open Problems in Algebraic Combinatorics 2022 was to provide a forum for exchanging promising new directions and ideas. The current volume includes contributions coming from the talks at the conference, as well as a few other contributions written specifically for this volume. The articles cover the majority of topics in algebraic combinatorics with the aim of presenting recent important research results and also important open problems and conjectures encountered in this research. The editors hope that this book will facilitate the exchange of ideas in algebraic combinatorics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algebraic combinatorics is the study of combinatorial objects as an extension of the study of finite permutation groups, or, in other words, group theory without groups. In the spirit of Delsarte's theory, this book studies combinatorial objects such as graphs, codes, designs, etc. in the general framework of association schemes, providing a comprehensive overview of the theory as well as pointing out to extensions.
Download or read book Algebraic Combinatorics written by Richard P. Stanley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by one of the foremost experts in the field, Algebraic Combinatorics is a unique undergraduate textbook that will prepare the next generation of pure and applied mathematicians. The combination of the author’s extensive knowledge of combinatorics and classical and practical tools from algebra will inspire motivated students to delve deeply into the fascinating interplay between algebra and combinatorics. Readers will be able to apply their newfound understanding to mathematical, engineering, and business models. Prerequisites include a basic knowledge of linear algebra over a field, existence of finite fields, and rudiments of group theory. The topics in each chapter build on one another and include extensive problem sets as well as hints to selected exercises. Key topics include walks on graphs, cubes and the Radon transform, the Matrix-Tree Theorem, de Bruijn sequences, the Erdős–Moser conjecture, electrical networks, the Sperner property, shellability of simplicial complexes and face rings. There are also three appendices on purely enumerative aspects of combinatorics related to the chapter material: the RSK algorithm, plane partitions, and the enumeration of labeled trees. The new edition contains a bit more content than intended for a one-semester advanced undergraduate course in algebraic combinatorics, enumerative combinatorics, or graph theory. Instructors may pick and choose chapters/sections for course inclusion and students can immerse themselves in exploring additional gems once the course has ended. A chapter on combinatorial commutative algebra (Chapter 12) is the heart of added material in this new edition. The author gives substantial application without requisites needed for algebraic topology and homological algebra. A sprinkling of additional exercises and a new section (13.8) involving commutative algebra, have been added. From reviews of the first edition: “This gentle book provides the perfect stepping-stone up. The various chapters treat diverse topics ... . Stanley’s emphasis on ‘gems’ unites all this —he chooses his material to excite students and draw them into further study. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” —D. V. Feldman, Choice, Vol. 51(8), April, 2014
