This is the page for the class Combinatorics for the Fall 2010 semester. Students who take this class should check this page periodically for content updates and new announcements.

Announcement

  • (2010/10/02) 第四次课讲义已补完, 讲义最后附有参考阅读的章节.
  • (2010/09/27) 第一次交作业的名单已公布,见assignment。如果交了作业但没有看到名字,请与我联系。
  • (2010/09/24) 提醒:明天(9月25日)上课时交作业。
  • (2010/09/15) 第一次作业已发布,9月25日课上交。
  • (2010/09/15) 第二课的lecture notes和slides中有个错误,
[math]\displaystyle{ |U|-\sum_{I\subseteq\{1,\ldots,n\}}(-1)^{|I|}\left|\bigcap_{i\in I}A_i\right| }[/math] 的正负号有误,应为 [math]\displaystyle{ |U|+\sum_{I\subseteq\{1,\ldots,n\}}(-1)^{|I|}\left|\bigcap_{i\in I}A_i\right| }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ |U|-\sum_{I\subseteq\{1,\ldots,n\}}(-1)^{|I|-1}\left|\bigcap_{i\in I}A_i\right| }[/math]
感谢林文敏同学发现这个错误。
  • (2010/09/11) 前两节课slides已上传,在lecture notes的部分有链接。
  • 9月3日第一次课。时间:上午三、四节;地点:馆I-105。
