This book is designed to meet the requirement of undergraduate and postgraduate students pursuing computer science, information technology, mathematical science, and physical science course. No formal prerequisites are needed to understand the text matter except a very reasonable background in college algebra. The text contains in-depth coverage of all major topics proposed by professional institutions and universities for a discrete mathematics course. It emphasizes on problem-solving techniques, pattern recognition, conjecturing, induction, applications of varying nature, proof...

The present book is based on the curriculum of undergraduate and postgraduate courses of universities in India and abroad. Every effort is made to present the various topics in the theory of graphs in a logical manner with adequate historical background and include suitable figures to illustrate concepts and results ideally. The formidable exercises, neither easy nor straightforward, are bold faced and highlighted. The theory portion of each chapter is studied thoroughly as it helps solve many of the problems with comparative ease. Selected material from this book is used for a semester...

This book provides a foundation for the mathematics of blockchain. It is inspired by a general analysis and synthesis of the current knowledge of blockchain technology and starts by laying a foundation for the mathematics of blockchain. The aim is for research in the area of blockchain to lead their study from the construction highlighted in this book.

First, the basis of a blockchain is set: block, transaction contents, block header, Merkle tree, nonce, Proof-of-Work. Connections with elliptic curves and cryptographic signatures are made.

Second, the book ties this with a...
