3. An application of probability to combinatorics: a proof of Vandermonde identity.

Author

Paolillo, Bonaventura, Rizzo, Piermichele, and Vincenzi, Giovanni

Subjects
*VANDERMONDE matrices, *COMBINATORICS, *PROBABILITY in quantum mechanics, *CURVILINEAR coordinates, *LAMMA language
Abstract

In this paper, we give possible suggestions for a classroom lesson about an application of probability using basic mathematical notions. We will approach to some combinatoric results without using ‘induction’, ‘polynomial identities’ nor ‘generating functions’, and will give a proof of the ‘Vandermonde Identity’ using elementary notions of probability.
