Discrete Algebraic Methods
by Volker Diekert, Manfred Kufleitner, Gerhard Rosenberger, Ulrich Hertrampf
Preface
This book is based on courses taught by the authors over many years at universities in Dortmund, Hamburg, Munich, and Stuttgart. Two textbooks emerged from the German lecture notes, Elemente der diskreten Mathematik [28] and Diskrete algebraische Methoden [27].While the first book has a strong emphasis on combinatorial topics, the second book focuses on algebraic ideas. This English edition is a revised and extended version of the second book.
Essentially, no knowledge beyond high school mathematics is required for reading this book. However, the density of the presentation suggests a certain amount of mathematical maturity, as, for example, required from students in computer science or mathematics studying for a master’s degree.
