Ebook: Combinatorial Functional Equations: Basic Theory

This two-volume set presents combinatorial functional equations using an algebraic approach, and illustrates their applications in combinatorial maps, graphs, networks, etc. The first volume mainly presents basic concepts and the theoretical background. Differential (ordinary and partial) equations and relevant topics are discussed in detail.

• A first attempt to present combinatorial functional equations in an algebraic manner.
• Presents a rigorous mathematical theory both qualitative and quantitative for functional equations
• Multi-disciplinary topics suited for wide readership.
