The Borsuk-Ulam theorem and bisection of necklaces
暂无分享,去创建一个
The Borsuk-Ulam theorem of topology is applied to a problem in discrete mathematics. A bisection of a necklace with k colors of beads is a collection of intervals whose union captures half the beads of each color. Every necklace with k colors has a bisection formed by at most k cuts. Higherdimensional generalizations are considered.
