Discrete Mathematics for Computer Scienceby Jean Gallier - arXiv
These are notes on discrete mathematics for computer scientists. The presentation is somewhat unconventional. I emphasize partial functions more than usual, and I provide a fairly complete account of the basic concepts of graph theory.
