Thanks, could you provide some material recommendations?
I'll share one: I've really, really enjoyed 'Graph Theory' by Bondy and Murty (2007 edition): https://www.springer.com/kr/book/9781846289699 https://www.springer.com/kr/book/9781846289699. Disclaimer: it's much more focused on the mathematical / combinatorial aspects of graphs than on concrete algorithms, although there are some algorithms in there. Some math background recommended.
- agumonkey 7y agoThe classic suggestion is Brualdi, there's also R. Stanley Enumerative Combinatorics http://www-math.mit.edu/~rstan/ec/ http://www-math.mit.edu/~rstan/ec/ but right now I'm starting with basics on S. Gill Williamson Foundations of Combinatorics with Application. I don't mind pure reasoning, but I need practical programming uses to at some point. (maybe joblessness anxiety showing) I also have some graph books but since it relies on combinatorics rapidly ..
- harshreality 7y agoCombinatorial Problems and Exercises by Lovasz I don't know much in the way of more advanced expository combinatorics books, other than the more narrow Generatingfunctionology (Wilf) and the already mentioned Enumerative Combinatorics (Stanley).
- milemi 7y agoI warmly recommend Analytic Combinatorics by Flajolet & Sedgewick, freely downloadable at http://algo.inria.fr/flajolet/Publications/book.pdf http://algo.inria.fr/flajolet/Publications/book.pdf I like the books you mentioned, but this one I love.
