Combinatorial Mathematics and Its Applications (Monograph Series in Probability and Statistics, 4) - Softcover
This volume includes thirty-three papers by eminent mathematicians, statisticians, and electrical engineers. The papers are organized into five main divisions: general problems of combinatorial mathematics; combinatorial problems of experimental designs; error-correcting codes and other problems of information theory; finite geometrics; and graphs. Many of the papers are followed by prepared discussions.
