math.CO Combinatorics

  • Combinatorics finds applications in computer science, especially in the run-time analysis of algorithms. It has also in recent years found applications in physics, at least in part via its relationship to quantum theory.
  • Combinatorial group testing allows one to quickly isolated defects in a large collection of samples by testing batches of samples at a time.
  • Combinatorial designs are routinely used to design experiments in applied statistics and quality control.
  • Combinatorial optimization in Logistics and Operations research.
  • Graphs are used as models for networks (e.g., internet server connections). Applications include searches for least expensive plane tickets, optimizing garbage pickup routes.
  • Graph models are used in machine learning.
  • combinatorial properties of permutation group was the fundamental part of Enigma cipher breaking by Jerzy RozyckiMarian Rejewski before II-nd WW. It is dated now but it was one of the first application of higher mathematic reasoning to cipher breaking, because before usually linguistic reasoning was used instead.
