Some Problems in Combinatorics

Author:

Abstract

The following problems are merely different forms of one1. In how many ways can a convex polygon of n + 1 sides be split into triangles by non-intersecting diagonals? We represent such a splitting by a symbol. Take one side of the polygon as base and letter the other n sides in order by a, b, c,…. If a triangle with sides lettered x, y is cut off, denote the diagonal by (xy). If this diagonal and side z form the sides of another triangle of the dissection, denote the third side of that triangle by ((xy)z). Similarly for two diagonals, as the figure illustrates. Finally the symbol for the unlettered base is the symbol for the dissection.
