چکیده
This article is about the mathematics of ringing the changes. We describe the mathematics which arises from a real-world activity, that of ringing the changes on bells. We present Rankin’s solution of one of the famous old problems in the subject.

متن کاملQUASI-PERMUTATION REPRESENTATIONS OF METACYCLIC 2-GROUPS
By a quasi-permutation matrix we mean a square matrix over the complex field C with non-negative integral trace. Thus, every permutation matrix over C is a quasipermutation matrix. For a given finite group G, let p(G) denote the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of G (or of a faithful representation of G by permutation matrices), let q(G) denote the minimal degree of a fa...
متن کاملAcoustical properties of ancient Chinese musical bells
Ancient Chinese music bells can be traced back to the Shang dynasty (1600–1100 B.C.). In addition to their significance in history and metallurgy, they provide much insight into the design of musical instruments in the early years and continue to make important contribution to acoustics due to their unique acoustical properties and rich physical mechanisms. These music bells differ from carillo...
متن کاملPERMUTATION GROUPS WITH BOUNDED MOVEMENT ATTAINING THE BOUNDS FOR ODD PRIMES
Let G be a transitive permutation group on a set ? and let m be a positive integer. If no element of G moves any subset of ? by more than m points, then |? | [2mp I (p-1)] wherep is the least odd primedividing |G |. When the bound is attained, we show that | ? | = 2 p q ….. q where ? is a non-negative integer with 2 < p, r 1 and q is a prime satisfying p < q < 2p, ? = 0 or 1, I i n....
متن کاملUse of Bells Test in the Evaluation of the Hemineglect Post Unilateral Stroke
The Bells Test is a cancellation task with distractors that requires visual exploration. It can evaluate visual hemineglect. The aim of this study was to compare performance between groups (right brain damage, left brain damage and healthy controls) in the Bells Test, as well as to evaluate and characterize the evaluation of hemineglect through this instrument. Forty-six stroke patients and 46 ...
