George Sichermann in 1978 discovered a way to label two six-sided dice that produces outcomes identical to the one which occurs when two standard six-sided dice are rolled. In this talk, I will describe a generalization of this result due to Gallian and Rusin which uses polynomial algebra. I will conclude with a description of several variations on the original problem, several open questions, ...

Let F (x,y) be t he joint d istri but ion function of (X, y), possessing a probability density funct ion f(x,y). Let F I(X) and l>'2(Y) be the marginal distribut ion fun ctions of X and Y respectively. Let a be a quantile of FI (x) and f3 be a quantile of F2(y). A random sampl e (X k, Y k), k= 1, 2, ... , n, is drawn a nd t he values on each variate are ordered so that X:< X; a nd Y;< Y; if i <...

ion : règle (comb-K). M est de la forme fun z → C où C est soit une variable différente de z, soit un opérateur, soit un setm, soit un getm. Dans ce cas, [M ] vaut K C. On cherche à montrer que fun z → C ≃ (fun x → fun y → x)C. Or on a : (fun x → fun y → x)C / s → fun y → C / s (on suppose ici que C n’est pas la variable y pour éviter les considérations sur l’alpha-conversion lors de l’applicat...

Despite the attention that various forms of ellipsis have received in the liter ature, the conditions under which a representation of an utterance may serve as a suitable referent for interpreting subsequent elliptical forms remain poorly understood. This fun damental question remains as a point of contention, particularly because there are data to support various conflicting approaches that at...
