Problem pages index

??? ??? ???

The list of problems which have appeared on my homepage and were subsequently "put out to grass" is growing rather long, so I have tried to index them, to make them easier to use. (There are now 165 problems here, though some are duplicates and some have been solved.) At the same time I have integrated my collections of permutation group problems into the main list. Comments welcome!

The notation (S) means that the problem has been solved; the text includes either a reference to the solution, or a sketch of how it is done. Of course, even a solved problem might be worth generalising!

Some problems appear in more than one class.

Index

In this index, numbers (Hn) refer to problems taken from my homepage; numbers (Bn) refer to problems from my article "Permutations" in the Budapest conference Paul Erdős and his Mathematics; numbers (Pn) are other problems on permutations and permutation groups; and numbers (BCCm.n) to problems I have presented at the British Combinatorial Conference. The problems live in separate files: homepage problems, problems from "Permutations", permutation group problems, and BCC problems. (Note: the complete listing of BCC problems is also available.)

The problems are classified as follows.
