IN-TST 2009 Problem 12

    Let GG be a simple graph with vertex set V={0,1,2,3,⋯ ,n+1}V=\{0,1,2,3,\cdots ,n+1\} . jj and j+1j+1 are connected by an edge for 0≤j≤n0\le j\le n . Let AA be a subset of VV and G(A)G(A) be the induced subgraph associated with AA . Let O(G(A))O(G(A)) be number of components of G(A)G(A) having an odd number of vertices. Let T(p,r)={A⊂V∣0.n+1∉A,∣A∣=p,O(G(A))=2r}T(p,r)=\{A\subset V \mid 0.n+1 \notin A,|A|=p,O(G(A))=2r\} for r≤p≤2rr\le p \le 2r . Prove That ∣T(p,r)∣=(n−rp−r)(n−p+12r−p)|T(p,r)|={n-r \choose{p-r}}{n-p+1 \choose{2r-p}} .
