Abstract
We apply -graded Bredon cohomology to mass assignment problems, extending classical mass partition methods. Within this framework, we reprove a recent result of Lessure and Sober\'on: for mass assignments on -dimensional affine subspaces of , there exists a -subspace containing a sphere that simultaneously bisects all measures. This approach highlights a flexible topological framework with potential for broader applications.
