Teaching Discrete Mathematics to Computer Science Students [PDF]

open access: yesLecture Notes in Computer Science, 2019
Discrete Mathematics is an inevitable part of any undergraduate computer science degree programme. However, computer science students typically find this to be at best a necessary evil with which they struggle to engage. Twenty years ago, we started to address this issue seriously in our university, and we have instituted a number of innovations ...

Flows on Simplicial Complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Given a graph $G$, the number of nowhere-zero $\ZZ_q$-flows $\phi_G(q)$ is known to be a polynomial in $q$. We extend the definition of nowhere-zero $\ZZ_q$-flows to simplicial complexes $\Delta$ of dimension greater than one, and prove the polynomiality

On the existence of block-transitive combinatorial designs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Block-transitive Steiner $t$-designs form a central part of the study of highly symmetric combinatorial configurations at the interface of several disciplines, including group theory, geometry, combinatorics, coding and information theory, and ...

On the critical exponent of generalized Thue-Morse words [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
For certain generalized Thue-Morse words t, we compute the "critical exponent", i.e., the supremum of the set of rational numbers that are exponents of powers in t, and determine exactly the occurrences of powers realizing it.Comment: 13 pages; to appear

Post-surjectivity and balancedness of cellular automata over groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We discuss cellular automata over arbitrary finitely generated groups. We call a cellular automaton post-surjective if for any pair of asymptotic configurations, every pre-image of one is asymptotic to a pre-image of the other.

Counting descents, rises, and levels, with prescribed first element, in words [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recently, Kitaev and Remmel [Classifying descents according to parity, Annals of Combinatorics, to appear 2007] refined the well-known permutation statistic ``descent'' by fixing parity of one of the descent's numbers. Results in that paper were extended

$2\times 2$ monotone grid classes are finitely based

open access: yes, 2016
In this note, we prove that all $2 \times 2$ monotone grid classes are finitely based, i.e., defined by a finite collection of minimal forbidden permutations.

Restricted linear congruences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, using properties of Ramanujan sums and of the discrete Fourier transform of arithmetic functions, we give an explicit formula for the number of solutions of the linear congruence $a_1x_1+\cdots +a_kx_k\equiv b \pmod{n}$, with $\gcd(x_i,n ...
