Asymptotically Optimal Box Packing Theorems
Given a protoset of d-dimensional polyominoes, we ask which boxes can be packed by the protoset. In some cases, it may be too difficult to give a complete answer to this question, so we ask the easier question about determining all sufficiently large boxes that can be packed. (We say that a box is “sufficiently large” if all edge lengths are ≥ C for some large C.) We give numerous examples (mos...
متن کاملThe Thermodynamic Arrow: Puzzles and Pseudo-puzzles
For more than a century, physics has known of a puzzling conflict between the T-asymmetry of thermodynamic phenomena and the T-symmetry of the underlying microphysics on which these phenomena depend. This paper provides a guide to the current status of this puzzle, distinguishing the central issue from various issues with which it may be confused. It is shown that there are two competing concep...
متن کاملMachine-Made Puzzles and Hand-Made Puzzles
Originally puzzles were not for recreation, but serious questions you might be killed if you couldn’t solve them. But in modern times, puzzles had become a sort of recreation, decreasing the seriousness and religiousness gradually. Now, the ‘rule creators’ of puzzles began to attract notice. I, as a rule creator, published a book, Kyoto University Student, Higashida’s Puzzles. I’ll show several...

متن کاملReconciliation Puzzles
We consider the problem of exchanging two similar strings held by different hosts with a minimum amount of communication. We reduce the problem of string reconciliation to a problem of multi-set reconciliation, for which nearly optimal solutions exist. Our approach involves transforming a string into a multi-set of substrings, which are reconciled efficiently and then put back together on a rem...
