This short note provides a sharper upper bound of a well known inequality for the sum of divisors function. This is a problem in pure mathematics related to the distribution of prime numbers. Furthermore, the technique is completely…
In this paper, I summarize our work on online fair division. In particular, I present two models for online fair division: (1) one existing model for fair division in food banks and (2) one new model for fair division of deceased organs to…
In this article we study the problem of fair division. In particular we study a notion introduced by J. Barbanel that generalizes super envy-free fair division. We give a new proof of his result. Our approach allows us to give an explicit…
We present some questions and suggestion on the second part of the Hilbert 16th problem
In this paper we discuss approximation of partially smooth functions. The problem arises naturally in the study of laminated currents.
In this article we study a cake cutting problem. More precisely, we study symmetric fair division algorithms, that is to say we study algorithms where the order of the players do not influence the value obtained by each player. In the first…
We survey the various constructions of forward self-similar solutions (and generalizations of self-similar solutions) to the Navier-Stokes equations. We also include and prove an extension of a recent result from [7].
Consider n straight line cuts of a circular pizza made so as to maximize the number of pieces. We investigate how fair such a maximal division may be and how many slices are obtained if the cuts are successfully made with a certain…
We study the proportional chore division problem where a protocol wants to divide an undesirable object, called chore, among $n$ different players. The goal is to find an allocation such that the cost of the chore assigned to each player be…
The subset sum problem is known to be an NP-hard problem in the field of computer science with the fastest known approach having a run-time complexity of $O(2^{0.3113n})$. A modified version of this problem is known as the perfect sum…
In this paper an iterated function system on the space of distribution functions is built. The inverse problem is introduced and studied by convex optimization problems. Some applications of this method to approximation of distribution…
This article deals with the cake cutting problem. In this setting, there exists two notions of fair division: proportional division (when there are n players, each player thinks to get at least 1/n of the cake) and envy-free division (each…
An open problem concerning Riemann sums, posed by O. Furdui, is considered.
The purpose of this paper is to provide a random version of Simons' inequality.
We consider the problem of approximating two, possibly unrelated probability distributions from a single complex-valued function $\psi$ and its Fourier transform. We show that this problem always has a solution within a specified degree of…
Allocating resources to individuals in a fair manner has been a topic of interest since ancient times, with most of the early mathematical work on the problem focusing on resources that are infinitely divisible. Over the last decade, there…
In this paper some open problems for Painlev\'e equations are discussed. In particular the following open problems are described: (i) the Painlev\'e equivalence problem; (ii) notation for solutions of the Painlev\'e equations; (iii)…
We study the fair division of indivisible goods with conflicts between pairs of goods, represented by a graph $G = (V, E)$. We consider ``soft'' conflicts: assigning two adjacent goods to the same agent is allowed, but we seek allocations…
Cake cutting is a classic model for studying fair division of a heterogeneous, divisible resource among agents with individual preferences. Addressing cake division under a typical requirement that each agent must receive a connected piece…
We formulate the problem of fair and efficient completion of indivisible goods, defined as follows: Given a partial allocation of indivisible goods among agents, does there exist an allocation of the remaining goods (i.e., a completion)…
