Dado un conjunto con determinada cantidad de elementos, es posible calcular la cardinalidad del conjunto formado por todos los subconjuntos del conjunto dado, que cumplen con la propiedad de ser disjuntos y tal que además la unión de todos ellos sea el conjunto original. Esto es, determinar el...

In dem Buch werden folgende Glücksspiele näher untersucht: Zahlenlotto ";6 aus 49";, Auswahlwette ";6 aus 45";, Fußballtoto 11er-Wette, ODDSET-Kombiwette (Sportwette), Lotterien Spiel 77 und Super 6, Glücksspirale, Aktion Mensch-Lotterie (bis März 2000: Aktion Sorgenkind-Lotterie),...

This study adopts the logic of Systems Thinking and Control Systems, presenting a simple but complete theory called the Theory of Combinatory Systems. This new theory is able to describe, interpret, explain, simulate and control collective phenomena and their observable effects. Despite specific...

Recent turmoil in financial and commodities markets has renewed questions regarding how well markets discover equilibrium prices, particularly when those markets are highly complex. A relatively new critique questions whether markets can realistically find equilibrium prices if computers cannot....

We consider the following problem: estimate the size of a population marked with serial numbers after only a sample of the serial numbers has been observed. Its simplicity in formulation and the inviting possibilities of application make this estimation well suited for an undergraduate level...

In this and a sequel paper [10] we study combinatorial designs whose incidence matrix has two distinct singular values.These generalize 2-(v, k, É) designs, and include partial geometric designs and uniform multiplicative designs.Here we study the latter, which are precisely the nonsingular...

In this and an earlier paper [17] we study combinatorial designs whose incidence matrix has two distinct singular values.These generalize (v, k, ë) designs, and include uniform multiplicative designs and partial geometric designs.Here we study the latter, which are precisely the designs with...

Planning as part of public sector decision-making situations is an activity of critical importance, with direct relevance for urban planners. The ramifications of such decisions generally have significant effect on peoples’ lives. The current paper deals with the comparison between territorial...

We present a modeling framework for 1D fragmentation in brittle rods, in which the distribution of fragments is written explicitly in terms of the probability of breaks along the length of the rod. This work is motivated by the experimental observation of several preferred lengths in the...

In this document we consider an optimization problem which origins from freight exchanges. The aim is to increase the utilization of already scheduled road transportation activities by accepting extra loads. Such utilization increase reduces costs for the freight sender, increases revenue for...

In this paper we introduce a model of an exchange economy with indivisible goods and money.There are nitely many agents each of whom owns one unit of each of nitely many di erent types of indivisible goods and certain amount of money. Each type of indivisible good is subject to quality di...

In July 2003, the Policy Analysis Market (PAM) was described as terrorism futures, and immediately cancelled. While PAM was not in fact designed to be terrorism futures, I here consider five design issues with implementing and using real terrorism futures: combinatorics, manipulation, moral...

In this paper it is shown how to compute stable sets, defined by Mertens (1989), inthe context of bimatrix games only using linear optimization techniques.

We consider M transmitting stations sending packets to a single receiver over a slotted time-multiplexed link. For each phase consisting of T consecutive slots, the receiver dynamically allocates these slots among the M transmitters. Our objective is to characterize policies that minimize the...

This is a report of a study on the evolution of manufacturing technology policy during the deployment of domestic advanced manufacturing systems in thirty-four plants and two panels of data collection separated by one year. Changing firm environment was significantly correlated with pioneering...

The Faà di Bruno formula enables us to compute the derivatives of a function of several variables. We show here, in spite of the noncommutativity of causal computations, that the Faà di Bruno grammar makes it possible to compute the derivatives of any causal functional. Using this property and...

Combinatorial optimization problems arise in several areas ranging from management to mathematics and graph theory. Most combinatorial optimization problems are computationally hard due to the restriction that a subset of the variables have to take integral values. During the last two decades...
