The subject of this book is mathematical cryptography. By this we mean the mathematics involved in cryptographic protocols. As the field has expanded, using both commutative and noncommutative algebraic objects as cryptographic platforms, a book describing and explaining all these mathematical methods is of immeasurable value.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 12th International Workshop on Approximation and Online Algorithms, WAOA 2014, held in Wroclaw, Poland, in September 2014 as part of ALGO 2014.

The 22 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. They cover a wide range of topics such as coloring and partitioning, competitive analysis, network design, packing and covering, paradigms for design and analysis of approximation and online algorithms, randomization techniques, real-world applications, and scheduling...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 25th International Workshop on Combinatorial Algorithms, IWOCA 2014, held in Duluth, MN, USA, in October 2014. The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 69 submissions. The papers focus on topics such as Algorithms and Data Structures, Combinatorial Enumeration, Combinatorial Optimization, Complexity Theory (Structural and Computational), Computational Biology, Databases (Security, Compression and Information Retrieval), Decompositions and Combinatorial Designs,...

Since the publication of this book s bestselling predecessor, Mathematica^(r) has matured considerably and the computing power of desktop computers has increased greatly. The Mathematica^(r) typesetting functionality has also become sufficiently robust that the final copy for this edition could be transformed directly from Mathematica R notebooks to LaTex input.
Incorporating these aspects, CRC Standard Curves and Surfaces with Mathematica^(r), Third Edition is a virtual encyclopedia of curves and functions that depicts nearly all of the standard...

The Joy of Finite Mathematics: The Language and Art of Math teaches students basic finite mathematics through a foundational understanding of the underlying symbolic language and its many dialects, including logic, set theory, combinatorics (counting), probability, statistics, geometry, algebra, and finance.

Through detailed explanations of the concepts, step-by-step procedures, and clearly defined formulae, readers learn to apply math to subjects ranging from reason (logic) to finance (personal budget), making this interactive and engaging book appropriate for non-science,...

Latin Squares and Their Applications, Second edition offers a long-awaited update and reissue of this seminal account of the subject. The revision retains foundational, original material from the frequently-cited 1974 volume but is completely updated throughout. As with the earlier version, the author hopes to take the reader 'from the beginnings of the subject to the frontiers of research'. By omitting a few topics which are no longer of current interest, the book expands upon active and emerging areas. Also, the present state of knowledge regarding the 73 then-unsolved problems...

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 17^th International Workshop on Computer Algebra in Scientific Computing, CASC 2015, held in Aachen, Germany, in September 2015.

The 35 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. They deal with the ongoing progress both in theoretical computer algebra and its expanding applications. New and closer interactions are fostered by combining the area of computer algebra methods and systems and the application of the tools of computer algebra for the solution of problems in...

This monograph gives a short introduction to the relevant modern parts of discrete geometry, in addition to leading the reader to the frontiers of geometric research on sphere arrangements. The readership is aimed at advanced undergraduate and early graduate students, as well as interested researchers. It contains more than 40 open research problems ideal for graduate students and researchers in mathematics and computer science. Additionally, this book may be considered ideal for a one-semester advanced undergraduate or graduate level course.

The core part of this book is based on three...
