Synopsis

Discrete Structures. This text book brings some branches of Discrete mathematics, which are very applicable in Computer science. As such we start with logic and special emphasis on the proof. The chapter on inductive processes follows. We present the fundamentals of counting and number theory. One part is devoted to recurrence relations, that are a basic tool to describe the processes that are repeating. This enables to quantify the algorithms with respect to the time used by them for their execution. Relations are subsets of the Cartesian product of two sets and present a surprising palette of different results. One direction results in latices and Boolean algebras. We end with graphs. A tool that is incredibly useful mathematical model for all sorts of real life processes.

Author Biography

Iztok Peterin, University of Maribor, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

Iztok Peterin was born in Maribor, where he also studied mathematics at the Faculty of education (PeF) on University of Maribor (UM) as it was called then. After diploma thesis defense in 1998, he started in fall of the same year as an assistant for mathematics at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (FEECS). In the same period he also started with PhD studies at (PeF). He finish his PhD defense in spring 2005. After election to an assistant professor in 2006 he started to teach several courses at FEECS. Since 2016 he is the head of Institute of Mathematics and Physics at FEECS UM. His research work covers the field of Discrete mathematics with particular emphasis to Graph theory.
