DISCRETE MATHEMATICS

Discrete Mathematics provides a common forum for significant research in many areas of discrete mathematics and combinatorics. Among the fields covered by Discrete Mathematics are graph and hypergraph theory, enumeration, coding theory, block designs, the combinatorics of partially ordered sets, extremal set theory, matroid theory, algebraic combinatorics, discrete geometry, matrices, and discrete probability theory.Items in the journal include research articles (Contributions or Notes, depending on length) and survey/expository articles (Perspectives). Efforts are made to process the submission of Notes (short articles) quickly. The Perspectives section features expository articles accessible to a broad audience that cast new light or present unifying points of view on well-known or insufficiently-known topics.Discrete Mathematics also publishes occasional Special Issues containing selected papers, often from a particular conference. Such issues are fully refereed and adhere to the normal high standards of the journal.This journal has an Open Archive. All published items, including research articles, have unrestricted access and will remain permanently free to read and download 48 months after publication. All papers in the Archive are subject to Elsevier's user license.

离散数学为离散数学和组合学的许多领域的重要研究提供了一个共同的论坛。在离散数学所涉及的领域中，有图与超图理论、枚举、编码理论、块设计、部分有序集的组合学、极值集理论、拟阵理论、代数组合学、离散几何、矩阵和离散概率论。期刊上的项目包括研究文章(根据篇幅的不同，可以是贡献或注释)和调查/说明性文章(观点)。努力快速处理提交的注释(短文)。透视图部分提供了可供广大读者阅读的说明性文章，这些文章对已知或不充分已知的主题提出了新的观点或统一的观点。离散数学偶尔也会出版包含选定论文的特刊，这些论文通常来自某个特定的会议。这些问题是充分参考和坚持正常的高标准的期刊。这本杂志有一个开放的档案。所有已发表的项目，包括研究论文，都可以无限制地访问，并在发表48个月后永久免费阅读和下载。存档中的所有论文均受爱思唯尔用户许可的约束。
