課程概述 |
This course will introduce students to the problems and methods of extremal
combinatorics. The fundamental extremal problem asks how large a structure can be
without containing a forbidden substructure. This very flexible problem arises in many
different settings and enjoys several applications. A variety of methods have been
developed to tackle them, and this course will pay special attention to the probabilistic,
linear algebraic and (briefly) topological methods. |
課程目標 |
The first half of the course will continue from the previous semester’s Graph Theory
course, taking a deeper look into Ramsey and Turán Theory. The second half will
cover problems from extremal set theory, including the central theorems of Erdős-Ko-
Rado and Sperner. Alongside the important results, equal attention will be paid to
the development of methods used to prove them. |
課程要求 |
Successful completion of Graph Theory I (or an equivalent course)
Familiarity with linear algebra and (discrete) probability
Some knowledge of topology would be a bonus, but is not required |
