Viewpoint The tetrahedral dice are cast . . . and pack densely
Tetrahedra are special among the platonic solids. They are the simplest polyhedra and the ones most unlike spheres. Surprisingly, much of our knowledge about the packing properties of tetrahedra is very recent: the past year has witnessed a sudden proliferation of novel, and often surprising, findings. Using Monte Carlo simulations, Haji-Akbari et al.[1] found that, upon compression, systems of...
متن کاملOn the Forged Dice
It is a well{known exercise in elementary probability that it is impossible to forge two ordinary dice with numbers 1;. . .; 6 in such a way that when one throws both and takes the sum one gets the numbers 2; 3;. . .; 12 all with the same probability. preceding assertion is just the statement that for m = 10, k 1 = k 2 = 5 there are no such probabilities. It will be shown how the k 1 ;. . .; k ...

In the 2014 annual meeting of the Korean Society of Mathematical Biology, the managing editor proposed an interesting idea: viewing problematic gambling as a contagious disease [1]. One article was then submitted and enlisted in the June issue of this journal [2].

متن کاملThe Quantum Dice
Albert Einstein once said that he does not believe in a God who plays dice. He was referring to the fundamental principle that quantum theory permits only statistical assertions concerning the values of physical quantities. This issue, namely, whether the description of Nature in statistical terms is complete or even consistent, was the subject of a very lively debate-dialogue between Einstein ...
متن کاملTied dice
A generalized die is a list (x1; :::; xn) of integers. For integers n 1, a b and s let D(n; a; b; s) be the set of all dice with a x1 ::: xn b and P xi = s. Two dice X and Y are tied if the number of pairs (i; j) with xi < yj equals the number of pairs (i; j) with xi > yj . We prove the following: with one exception (unique up to isomorphism), if X 6= Y 2 D(n; a; b; s) are tied dice neither of ...
