A CHOICE "Outstanding Academic Title," the first edition of this
bestseller was lauded for its detailed yet engaging treatment of
permutations. Providing more than enough material for a
one-semester course, Combinatorics of Permutations, third edition
continues to clearly show the usefulness of this subject for both
students and researchers. The research in combinatorics of
permutations has advanced rapidly since this book was published in
a first edition. Now the third edition offers not only updated
results, it remains the leading textbook for a course on the topic.
Coverage is mostly enumerative, but there are algebraic, analytic,
and topological parts as well, and applications. Since the
publication of the second edition, there is tremendous progress in
pattern avoidance (Chapters 4 and 5). There is also significant
progress in the analytic combinatorics of permutations, which will
be incorporated. *A completely new technique from extremal
combinatorics disproved a long-standing conjecture, and this is
presented in Chapter 4. *The area of universal permutations has
undergone a lot of very recent progress, and that has been noticed
outside the academic community as well. This also influenced the
revision of Chapter 5. *New results in stack sorting are added to
Chapter 8. *Chapter 9 applications to biology has been revised. The
author's other works include Introduction to Enumerative and
Analytic Combinatorics, second edition (CHOICE "Outstanding
Academic Title") and Handbook of Enumerative Combinatorics,
published by CRC Press. The author also serves as Series Editor for
CRC's Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications.
