Course Materials
In the first 10 lectures, we follow Sipser's book "Introduction to the theory of computation" Chapters 7, 8, 9 (not Theorem 9.15), and Section 10.2.
If you need some background in math, consider these two sourses:
Lecure notes: Discrete Mathematics, L. Lovasz, K. Vesztergombi
Лекции по дискретной математике (черновик учебника, in Russian)
