Combinatorial Matrix Theory

This is the first book devoted to the exposition of combinatorial matrix theory. This subject concerns itself with the use of matrix theory and linear algebra in proving results in combinatorics (and vice versa), and with the intrinsic properties of matrices viewed as arrays of numbers rather than algebraic objects in themselves. The book is sufficiently self-contained for use as a graduate course text, but complete enough for a standard reference work on the basic theory. Thus it will be an essential purchase for combinatorialists, matrix theorists, and those numerical analysts working in numerical linear algebra.Brualdi, Richard A. is the author of 'Combinatorial Matrix Theory', published 1991 under ISBN 9780521322652 and ISBN 0521322650.
