Algebraic and Geometric Methods in Enumerative Combinatorics
by Federico Ardila
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 143
Description:
The guiding principle was to focus on algebraic and geometric techniques that are useful towards the solution of enumerative problems. The main goal of this survey is to state clearly and concisely some of the most useful tools in algebraic and geometric enumeration, and to give many examples that quickly and concretely illustrate how to put these tools to use.
