Algebraic combinatorics is an area of mathematics that employs methods of abstract algebra, notably group theory and representation theory, in various combinatorial contexts and, conversely, applies combinatorial techniques to problems in algebra. It is one of the youngest combinatorial disciplines. Thus, in the preface to his Combinatorial Theory, published in 1979, Martin Aigner wrote about "growing consensus that combinatorics should be divided into three parts", without even mentioning algebraic combinatorics by name. Through the early or mid 1990s, typical combinatorial objects of interest in algebraic combinatorics either admitted a lot of symmetries or possessed a rich algebraic structure, frequently of representation theoretic origin. This period is reflected in the area 05E, Algebraic combinatorics, of the AMS Mathematics Subject Classification, introduced in 1991.
