cardinality of monomials


Theorem 1.

If S is a finite setMathworldPlanetmath of variable symbols, then the number of monomialsPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath ofdegree n constructed from these symbols is (n+m-1n), wherem is the cardinality of S.

Proof.

The proof proceeds by inducion on the cardinality of S. If S has but oneelement, then there is but one monomial of degree n, namely the sole elementof S raised to the n-th power. Since (n+1-1n)=1, theconclusionMathworldPlanetmath holds when m=1.

Suppose, then, that the result holds whenver m<M for some M. Let S bea set with exactly M elements and let x be an element of S. A monomialof degree n constructed from elements of S can be expressed as the productPlanetmathPlanetmathof a power of x and a monomial constructed from the elements of S{x}. By the induction hypothesis, the number of monomials of degree kconstructed from elements of S{x} is (k+M-2k).Summing over the possible powers to which x may be raised, the number ofmonomials of degree n constructed from the elements of S is as follows:

k=0n(k+M-2k)=(k+M-1k)

Theorem 2.

If S is an infinite setMathworldPlanetmath of variable symbols, then the number of monomialsof degree n constructed from these symbols equals the cardinality of S.
