The book is devoted to the study of classical combinatorial structures such as random graphs, permutations, and systems of random linear equations in finite fields. The author shows how to reduce combinatorial problems to classical problems of probability theory on the summation of independent random variables. He concentrates on recent research by Russian mathematicians, including the first English-language presentation of techniques for solving systems of random linear equations in...
More DescriptionThe book is devoted to the study of classical combinatorial structures such as random graphs, permutations, and systems of random linear equations in finite fields. The author shows how to reduce combinatorial problems to classical problems of probability theory on the summation of independent random variables. He concentrates on recent research by Russian mathematicians, including the first English-language presentation of techniques for solving systems of random linear equations in finite fields.These new results will interest specialists in combinatorics and probability theory and will also be useful in applied areas of probabilistic combinatorics such as communication theory, cryptology, and mathematical genetics.
