This is the most comprehensive survey of the mathematical life of the legendary Paul Erdős (1913-1996), one of the most versatile and prolific mathematicians of our time. For the first time, all the main areas of Erdős'' research are covered in a single project. Because of overwhelming response from the mathematical community, the project now occupies over 1000 pages, arranged into two volumes. These volumes contain both high level research articles as well as key articles that survey some of the cornerstones of Erdős'' work, each written by a leading world specialist in the field. A special chapter "Early Days", rare photographs, and art related to Erdős complement this striking collection. A unique contribution is the bibliography on Erdős'' publications: the most comprehensive ever published. This new edition, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of Paul Erdős'' birth, contains updates on many of the articles from the two volumes of the first edition, several new articles from prominent mathematicians, a new introduction, and more biographical information about Paul Erdős with an updated list of publications.

The second volume contains chapters on graph theory and combinatorics, extremal and Ramsey theory, and a section on infinity that covers Erdős'' research on set theory. All of these chapters are essentially updated, particularly the extremal theory chapter that contains a survey of flag algebras, a new technique for solving extremal problems.

The first volume contains the unique chapter "Early Days", which features personal memories of Paul Erdős by a number of his colleagues. The other three chapters cover number theory, random methods, and geometry. All of these chapters are essentially updated, most notably the geometry chapter that covers the recent solution of the problem on the number of distinct distances in finite planar sets, which was the most popular of Erdős'' favorite geometry problems.

This book collects the extended abstracts of the accepted contributions to EuroComb21. A similar book is published at every edition of EuroComb (every two years since 2001) collecting the most recent advances in combinatorics, graph theory, and related areas.  It has a wide audience in the areas, and the papers are used and referenced broadly.

This volume contains selected refereed papers based on lectures presented at the ‘Integers Conference 2007’, an international conference in combinatorial number theory that was held in Carrollton, Georgia in October 2007.

The proceedings include contributions from many distinguished speakers, including George Andrews, Neil Hindman, Florian Luca, Carl Pomerance, Ken Ono and Igor E. Shparlinski. Among the topics considered in these papers are additive number theory, multiplicative number theory, sequences, elementary number theory, theory of partitions, and Ramsey theory.

This volume contains selected refereed papers based on lectures presented at the "Integers Conference 2011", an international conference in combinatorial number theory that was held in Carrollton, Georgia, United States in October 2011. This was the fifth Integers Conference, held bi-annually since 2003. It featured plenary lectures presented by Ken Ono, Carla Savage, Laszlo Szekely, Frank Thorne, and Julia Wolf, along with sixty other research talks.

This volume consists of ten refereed articles, which are expanded and revised versions of talks presented at the conference. They represent a broad range of topics in the areas of number theory and combinatorics including multiplicative number theory, additive number theory, game theory, Ramsey theory, enumerative combinatorics, elementary number theory, the theory of partitions, and integer sequences.

Over a career that spanned 60 years, Ronald L. Graham (known to all as Ron) made significant contributions to the fields of discrete mathematics, number theory, Ramsey theory, computational geometry, juggling and magical mathematics, and many more. Ron also was a mentor to generations of mathematicians, he gave countless talks and helped bring mathematics to a wider audience, and he held signifi cant leadership roles in the mathematical community.

This volume is dedicated to the life and memory of Ron Graham, and includes 20-articles by leading scientists across a broad range of subjects that refl ect some of the many areas in which Ron worked.

Elwyn Berlekamp, John Conway, and Richard Guy wrote ‘Winning Ways for your Mathematical Plays’ and turned a recreational mathematics topic into a full mathematical fi eld. They combined set theory, combinatorics, codes, algorithms, and a smattering of other fi elds, leavened with a liberal dose of humor and wit. Their legacy is a lively fi eld of study that still produces many surprises. Despite being experts in other areas of mathematics, in the 50 years since its publication, they also mentored, talked, and played games, giving their time, expertise, and guidance to several generations of mathematicians.

This volume is dedicated to Elwyn Berlekamp, John Conway, and Richard Guy. It includes 20 contributions from colleagues that refl ect on their work in combinatorial game theory.

This volume consists of twenty articles stemming from presentations given at the 2023 Integers Conference. They represent a variety of active areas of research in combinatorial number theory, including additive number theory, multiplicative number theory, elementary number theory, the theory of partitions, Ramsey theory, sequences, algebraic combinatorics, enumerative combinatorics, and Diophantine equations.

This collection of high-quality articles in the field of combinatorics, geometry, algebraic topology and theoretical computer science is a tribute to Jiří Matoušek, who passed away prematurely in March 2015. It is a collaborative effort by his colleagues and friends, who have paid particular attention to clarity of exposition – something Jirka would have approved of.

The original research articles, surveys and expository articles, written by leading experts in their respective fields, map Jiří Matoušek’s numerous areas of mathematical interest.

Dieses Buch ist [...] eine hervorragende Einführung in Kombinatorik und Graphentheorie für Studienanfänger in Mathematik (und Informatik). [...] das Buch ist wegen des ungewöhnlichen und sehr attraktiven Stiles der Darstellung bemerkenswert. [...] Die Sprachform ist vorwiegend die eines Gespräches mit dem Leser, der dadurch in die Gedankengänge und Überlegungen des Autors hineingeführt und hineingezogen wird. Zum Beispiel werden bei einem Beweis zuerst die Grundidee oder die Zielsetzung genannt und erläutert, und auch im weiteren Verlauf wird immer wieder durch alternative Formulierungen das Verständnis vertieft oder ermöglicht. Dadurch werden im Leser adäquate Vorstellungen zu den formalen Schritten erzeugt, die dann wieder eigenständiges und kreatives Denken ermöglichen. Die Lektüre ist also anregend und sehr motivierend! Die Aufgaben sind dagegen ziemlich anspruchsvoll, werden aber ausführlich erläutert. [..]

[Die Bereiche Kombinatorik und Graphentehorie] werden in all ihren Ausprägungen, reizvollen Einzelergebnissen und vielfältigen Anwendungen [...] ausführlich dargestellt. In gemächlicher Breite behandeln die Autoren ihre Themen, beweisen Kernsätze mehrfach auf unterschiedliche Weise und motivieren wichtige Theorien sehr anregend. Ihr selbstgestelltes Ziel, Freude und Genuss an mathematischem Denken zu vermitteln, dürften sie erreicht haben. Eine Vielzahl inhaltlich sehr reizvoller Aufgaben bereichern den Text; für die schwierigeren findet man in einem Schlusskapitel Lösungshilfen. In weiten Teilen reichen Schulkenntnisse für ein Verständnis aus. Der sehr gehaltvolle Band kann neben Studierenden daher auch bereits Schülern empfohlen werden.
