Mathematical Preliminaries

  • Chapter
Geometric Algorithms and Combinatorial Optimization

Part of the book series: Algorithms and Combinatorics ((AC,volume 2))

Abstract

This chapter summarizes mathematical background material from linear algebra, linear programming, and graph theory used in this book. We expect the reader to be familiar with the concepts treated here. We do not recommend to go thoroughly through all the definitions and results listed in the sequel — they are mainly meant for reference.
