Beskrivning

Discrete mathematics has been rising in prominence in the past fifty years, both as a tool with practical applications and as a source of new and interesting mathematics. The topics in discrete mathematics have become so well developed that it is easy to forget that common threads connect the different areas, and it is through discovering and using these connections that progress is often made. For over fifty years, Ron Graham has been able to illuminate some of these connections and has helped to bring the field of discrete mathematics to where it is today. To celebrate his contribution, this volume brings together many of the best researchers working in discrete mathematics, including Fan Chung, Erik D. Demaine, Persi Diaconis, Peter Frankl, Alfred W. Hales, Jeffrey C. Lagarias, Allen Knutson, Janos Pach, Carl Pomerance, N. J. A. Sloane, and of course, Ron Graham himself.

Recensioner i media

'Over the past half century, discrete mathematics has had a stunning rise from bargain basement topology to a vital and highly respected part of the mathematical world. Ron Graham has played a critical role in this explosive change, both with his deep results and his leadership in the mathematical community. This work contains beautiful mathematics from some of Ron's many collaborators combined with warm personal reflections on working with Ron.' Joel Spencer, Silver Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science, Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York
