A Fine Rediscovery
نویسنده
چکیده
This article explores the history of the two results in integer partitions known as Stanley’s theorem and Elder’s theorem. While history has credited Richard Stanley with the discovery of the results, we note that Nathan Fine had established these results among a host of other partition identities over a decade earlier. In tribute to Fine, analogues in the sets of odd partitions and distinct partitions are presented.

Problems in which autonomous agents perform simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) are well explored in the literature. A related problem is rediscovery, in which the agent attempts to refine estimates of feature locations derived from previous SLAM surveys. However, most works in rediscovery assume high density of features. The major contribution of this work is a formulation of the spar...
متن کاملCorrelates of rediscovery and the detectability of extinction in mammals.
Extinction is difficult to detect, even in well-known taxa such as mammals. Species with long gaps in their sighting records, which might be considered possibly extinct, are often rediscovered. We used data on rediscovery rates of missing mammals to test whether extinction from different causes is equally detectable and to find which traits affect the probability of rediscovery. We find that sp...
