Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This introduction to combinatorial analysis defines the subject as ""the number of ways there are of doing some well-defined operation."" Chapter 1 surveys that part of the theory of permutations and combinations that finds a place in books on elementary algebra, which leads to the extended treatment of generation functions in Chapter 2, where an important result is the introduction of a set of multivariable polynomials.Chapter 3 contains an extended treatment of the principle of inclusion and exclusion which is indispensable to the enumeration of permutations with restricted position given in Chapters 7 and 8. Chapter 4 examines the enumeration of permutations in cyclic representation and Chapter 5 surveys the theory of distributions. Chapter 6 considers partitions, compositions, and the enumeration of trees and linear graphs.Each chapter includes a lengthy problem section, intended to develop the text and to aid the reader. These problems assume a certain amount of mathematical maturity. Equations, theorems, sections, examples, and problems are numbered consecutively in each chapter and are referred to by these numbers in other chapters. Introductory text surveys the theory of permutations and combinations associated with elementary algebra; the principle of inclusion and exclusion; and the theory of distributions and partitions in cyclic representation. Includes problems. 1958 edition. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Printed in the U.S.A. [Date from the copyright page.] Third Printing, stated. 'A Wiley Publication in Mathematical Statistics.' Preface; Contents: Permutations and Combinations, Generating Functions, The Principle of Inclusion and Exclusion, The Cycles of Permutations, Distributions: Occupancy, Partitions, Compositions, Trees, and Networks, Permutations with Restricted Position I & II; Equations, Formulas, Problems, References, Index; x, [i], 244 pages. The original black cloth covers, with gilt lettering on a blue ground on the upper board and the gently-bumped spine, are very good, with just a few spots of discoloration. Front endpapers have list of other titles in series. The interior, despite light toning to the edges, has remained fresh, crisp, and completely clean. [Please see my 5 images of the actual book.] After discussing the term combinatorial analysis at the start of the preface [referring to Leibniz, MacMahon, a current dictionary, and DeMorgan], Riordan proclaims: "Since the subject seems to have new growing ends, and definition is apt to be restrictive, this lack of conceptual precision may be all for the best. So far as the present book is concerned, anything enumerative is combinatorial; that is, the main emphasis throughout is on finding the 'number of ways there are' of doing some well-defined operation. § The modern developments of the subject are closely associated with the use of generating functions. As appears even in the first chapter, these must be taken in a form more general than the power series given them by P. S. Laplace, their inventor. Moreover, for their combinatorial uses, they are to be regarded, following E. T. Bell, as tools in the theory of an algebra of sequences, so that despite all appearances they belong to algebra and not to analysis. They serve to compress a great deal of development and allow the presentation of a mass of results in a uniform manner, giving the book more scope than would have been possible otherwise. By their means, that central combinatorial tool, the method of inclusion an exclusion, may be shown to be related to the use of factorial moments (which should be attractive to the statistician). Finally, the presentation in this form fits perfectly with the presentation of probability given by William Feller in this series." As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.
