A graph that shows the number of balls in and out of the vase for the first ten iterations of the problem. The Ross–Littlewood paradox (also known as the balls and vase problem or the ping pong ball problem) is a hypothetical problem in abstract mathematics and logic designed to illustrate the paradoxical, or at least non-intuitive, nature of infinity.

The ping-pong argument goes back to the late 19th century and is commonly attributed [1] to Felix Klein who used it to study subgroups of Kleinian groups, that is, of discrete groups of isometries of the hyperbolic 3-space or, equivalently Möbius transformations of the Riemann sphere.
Year Yet questions. If you want help or explanations as you go along, turn to the chapter in PART TWO that relates to the question you're working on. 2. Read Part One and Part Two as preparation for your workshop, perhaps making notes as you read. When you've finished, set aside three hours and write your answers to the questions in Part Three.
In a typical Ganzfeld experiment, a "receiver" is placed in a room relaxing in a comfortable chair with halved ping-pong balls over the eyes, having a red light shone on them. The receiver also wears a set of headphones through which white or pink noise (static) is played. The receiver is in this state of mild sensory deprivation for half an hour.
Although both a "Table Tennis Association" and a "Ping Pong Association" existed by 1910, [12] a new Table Tennis Association was founded in 1921, and renamed the English Table Tennis Association in 1926. [13] The International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) followed in 1926. [1] [14] London hosted the first official World Championships in 1926.
In routing, a Ping-Pong scheme is a simple algorithm for distributing data packets across two paths.If you had two paths A and B, then the algorithm would randomly start with one of the paths and then switch back and forth between the two.
In contrast, the Chinese team maintained a wide variety of playing styles, equipment, and grip variations among their players. [1] The diversity maintained by the Chinese team is no doubt a factor in their dominance of the sport over the past several decades, and European teams have recently figured this out and followed suit.
