  2. Symbolic method (combinatorics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Symbolic_method_(combinatorics)

    A structural equation between combinatorial classes thus translates directly into an equation in the corresponding generating functions. Moreover, in the labelled case it is evident from the formula that we may replace g ( z ) {\displaystyle g(z)} by the atom z and compute the resulting operator, which may then be applied to EGFs.

  3. Combinatorial explosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_explosion

    In mathematics, a combinatorial explosion is the rapid growth of the complexity of a problem due to the way its combinatorics depends on input, constraints and bounds. Combinatorial explosion is sometimes used to justify the intractability of certain problems.

  4. Twelvefold way - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelvefold_way

    In combinatorics, the twelvefold way is a systematic classification of 12 related enumerative problems concerning two finite sets, which include the classical problems of counting permutations, combinations, multisets, and partitions either of a set or of a number.

  5. Combinatorics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorics

    Combinatorics is an area of mathematics primarily concerned with counting, both as a means and as an end to obtaining results, and certain properties of finite structures.It is closely related to many other areas of mathematics and has many applications ranging from logic to statistical physics and from evolutionary biology to computer science.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vandermonde's_identity

    In combinatorics, Vandermonde's identity (or Vandermonde's convolution) is the following identity for binomial coefficients: (+) = = ()for any nonnegative integers r, m, n. ...

  7. Hall's marriage theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_marriage_theorem

    The following example, due to Marshall Hall Jr., shows that the marriage condition will not guarantee the existence of a transversal in an infinite family in which infinite sets are allowed. Let F {\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}} be the family, A 0 = N {\displaystyle A_{0}=\mathbb {N} } , A i = { i − 1 } {\displaystyle A_{i}=\{i-1\}} for i ≥ ...

  8. Combinatorial chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_chemistry

    Combinatorial split-mix (split and pool) synthesis [12] [13] is based on the solid-phase synthesis developed by Merrifield. [14] If a combinatorial peptide library is synthesized using 20 amino acids (or other kinds of building blocks) the bead form solid support is divided into 20 equal portions.

  9. Rule of division (combinatorics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_division...

    In combinatorics, the rule of division is a counting principle. It states that there are n/d ways to do a task if it can be done using a procedure that can be carried out in n ways, and for each way w, exactly d of the n ways correspond to the way w. In a nutshell, the division rule is a common way to ignore "unimportant" differences when ...
