    Stacks of coins. Any of these stacks can be split into two stacks of different sizes: once the leftmost stack of three has been split, it can be split no further. Grundy's game is a two-player mathematical game of strategy. The starting configuration is a single heap of objects, and the two players take turn splitting a single heap into two ...

    For example, in detecting a dissimilar coin in three weighings (⁠ = ⁠), the maximum number of coins that can be analyzed is ⁠ = ⁠.Note that with ⁠ ⁠ weighings and ⁠ ⁠ coins, it is not always possible to determine the nature of the last coin (whether it is heavier or lighter than the rest), but only that the other coins are all the same, implying that the last coin is the ...

  5. Coin rotation paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_rotation_paradox

    The outer coin makes two rotations rolling once around the inner coin. The path of a single point on the edge of the moving coin is a cardioid.. The coin rotation paradox is the counter-intuitive math problem that, when one coin is rolled around the rim of another coin of equal size, the moving coin completes not one but two full rotations after going all the way around the stationary coin ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(mathematics)

    An object of Spec(A) is given by an S-scheme T, an object x of X(T), and a morphism of sheaves of algebras from x*(A) to the coordinate ring O(T) of T. If A is a quasi-coherent sheaf of graded algebras in an algebraic stack X over a scheme S , then there is a stack Proj( A ) generalizing the construction of the projective scheme Proj( A ) of a ...

    Conversely, given a commutative diagram, it defines a poset category, where: the objects are the nodes, there is a morphism between any two objects if and only if there is a (directed) path between the nodes, with the relation that this morphism is unique (any composition of maps is defined by its domain and target: this is the commutativity ...
