本研究提供一套采用Rota方法的初等计数代数组合学入门课程教学讲义,以组合构造和两种初等原理推导结果,内容自洽仅需高中数学基础,兼具组合与概率视角。

摘要:

本研究的目的是为一门30学时的初等计数代数组合学入门课程提供简短灵活的教学讲义。我们完全采用Rota方法。各主题按合适的顺序组织,使得所有结果都能通过初等方法由先前内容推导得出。组合系数的定义仅依据其组合意义。公式与结果的推导技术建立在构造法以及两种通用的初等原理/方法之上:一是坏元法(用于递推公式),读者应能认识到,坏元法可被视为条件概率思想的组合学对应;二是过计数原理(用于闭式公式)。因此,证明过程无需任何计算:计算公式是组合构造的副产品。我们力求内容自洽:仅需标准高中数学知识作为先修条件。我们限定于组合学视角,同时邀请读者自行推导(显而易见的)概率解释。

英文摘要:

The purpose of the present work is to provide short and supple teaching notes for a $30$ hours introductory course on elementary \textit{Enumerative Algebraic Combinatorics}. We fully adopt the \textit{Rota way}. The themes are organized into a suitable sequence that allows us to derive any result from the preceding ones by elementary processes. Definitions of \textit{combinatorial coefficients} are just by their \textit{combinatorial meaning}. The derivation techniques of formulae/results are founded upon constructions and two general and elementary principles/methods: - The \textit{bad element} method (for \textit{recursive} formulae). As the reader should recognize, the bad element method might be regarded as a combinatorial companion of the idea of \textit{conditional probability}. - The \textit{overcounting} principle (for \textit{close form} formulae). Therefore, \textit{no computation} is required in \textit{proofs}: \textit{computation formulae are byproducts of combinatorial constructions}. We tried to provide a self-contained presentation: the only prerequisite is standard high school mathematics. We limited ourselves to the \textit{combinatorial point of view}: we invite the reader to draw the (obvious) \textit{probabilistic interpretations}.
