102 Combinatorial Problems

"102 Combinatorial Problems" consists of carefully selected problems
that have been used in the training and testing of the USA
International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) team.
Key features:
* Provides in-depth enrichment in the important areas of combinatorics
by reorganizing and enhancing problem-solving tactics and strategies
* Topics include: combinatorial arguments and identities, generating
functions, graph theory, recursive relations, sums and products,
probability, number theory, polynomials, theory of equations, complex
numbers in geometry, algorithmic proofs, combinatorial and advanced
geometry, functional equations and classical inequalities
The book is systematically organized, gradually building combinatorial
skills and techniques and broadening the student's view of
mathematics. Aside from its practical use in training teachers and
students engaged in mathematical competitions, it is a source of
enrichment that is bound to stimulate interest in a variety of
mathematical areas that are tangential to combinatorics.
