This book presents methods of solving problems in three areas of
elementary combinatorial mathematics: classical combinatorics,
combinatorial arithmetic, and combinatorial geometry. In each
topic, brief theoretical discussions are immediately followed by
carefully worked-out examples of increasing degrees of difficulty,
and by exercises that range from routine to rather challenging.
While this book emphasizes some methods that are not usually
covered in beginning university courses, it nevertheless teaches
techniques and skills that are useful not only in the specific
topics covered here. There are approximately 310 examples and 650
exercises. Jiri Herman is the headmaster of a prestigious secondary
school (Gymnazium) in Brno, Radan Kucera is Associate Professor of
Mathematics at Masaryk University in Brno, and Jaromir Simsa is a
researcher at the Mathematical Institute of the Academy of Sciences
of the Czech Republic. The translator, Karl Dilcher, is Professor
of Mathematics at Dalhousie University in Canada. This book can be
seen as a continuation of the previous book by the same authors and
also translated by Karl Dilcher, Equations and Inequalities:
Elementary Problems and Theorems in Algebra and Number Theory
(Springer-Verlag 2000).
