Counting Derangements, Non Bijective Functions and the Birthday Problem

INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO ARTICOLO

Cita

The article provides counting derangements of finite sets and counting non bijective functions. We provide a recursive formula for the number of derangements of a finite set, together with an explicit formula involving the number e. We count the number of non-one-to-one functions between to finite sets and perform a computation to give explicitely a formalization of the birthday problem. The article is an extension of [10].
