Credit is not given for both MATH 3350 and 3351. Prerequisite: MATH 1320.
Credits: 3
Includes combinatorial principles, the binomial and multinomial theorems, partitions, discrete probability, algebraic structures, trees, graphs, symmetry groups, Polya's enumeration formula, linear recursions, generating functions and introduction to cryptography, time permitting. Prerequisite: MATH 3354 or instructor permission.
Credits: 3
Combinatorics of counting using basic tools from calculus, linear algebra, and occasionally group theory. Topics include: tableaux, symmetric polynomials, Catalan numbers, quantum binomial theorem, q-exponentials, partition and q-series identities. Bijective proofs will be emphasized when appropriate.
Credits: 3
Covers methods of abstract algebra that can be applied to various combinatorial problems and combinatorial methods to approach problems in representation theory, algebraic geometry, and homological algebra.
Credits: 1–12
The Mathematics Colloquium is held weekly, the sessions being devoted to research activities of students and faculty members, and to reports by visiting mathematicians on current work of interest. For doctoral dissertation, taken under the supervision of a dissertation director.
