The Riordan Group and Applications Summary

The Riordan Group and Applications by Louis Shapiro

The ever-growing applications and richness of approaches to the Riordan group is captured in this comprehensive monograph, authored by those who are among the founders and foremost world experts in this field. The concept of a Riordan array has played a unifying role in enumerative combinatorics over the last three decades. The Riordan arrays and Riordan group is a new growth point in mathematics that is both being influenced by, and continuing its contributions to, other fields such as Lie groups, elliptic curves, orthogonal polynomials, spline functions, networks, sequences and series, Beal conjecture, Riemann hypothesis, to name several. In recent years the Riordan group has made links to quantum field theory and has become a useful tool for computer science and computational chemistry. We can look forward to discovering further applications to unexpected areas of research. Providing a baseline and springboard to further developments and study, this book may also serve asa text for anyone interested in discrete mathematics, including combinatorics, number theory, matrix theory, graph theory, and algebra.

The Riordan Group and Applications Reviews

Each chapter ends with a set of exercises, designed to help the reader to develop a deeper understanding of the theory and methods of Riordan arrays, and a reference section. Solutions to selected exercises are also provided at the end of the book. It is a pleasure to read such a comprehensive and clearly written book on Riordan arrays and the Riordan group. This book excellently introduces and develops a fascinating new research area of enumerative combiatronics. (Chen Sheng, zbMATH 1498.05002, 2022)
