Description: Paul Erd's published more papers during his lifetime than any other mathematician especially in discrete mathematics. He had a nose for beautiful simply - stated problems with solutions that have far - reaching consequences across mathematics. This captivating book written for students provides an easy - to - understand introduction to discrete mathematics by presenting questions that intrigued Erd's along with his brilliant ways of working toward their answers. It includes young Erd s's proof of Bertrand's postulate the Erd's - Szekeres Happy End Theorem De Bruijn - Erd's theorem Erd's - Rado delta - systems Erd's - Ko - Rado theorem Erd's - Stone theorem the Erd's - R nyi -s's Friendship Theorem Erd's - R nyi random graphs the Chv tal - Erd's theorem on Hamilton cycles and other results of Erd's as well as results related to his work such as Ramsey's theorem or Deza's theorem on weak delta - systems. Its appendix covers topics normally missing from introductory courses. Filled with personal anecdotes about Erd's this book offers a behind - the - scenes look at interactions with the legendary collaborator.
