What an explanation. Principle look like nothing at first, but it's applications are mindblowing.

It’s like he knew what exactly went on in my lecture and did a great job! Amazing!

The friends one still works if you allow people to have 0 friends. Then people can have {0, ..., n-1} friends. From here, either two people have the same number of friends (so the proof is done), or each person has a different number, which means there is one person in each box. However, this is a contradiction, because it says that one person has 0 friends and one has n-1 (the maximum number, since you can't be friends with yourself). It's impossible to have one friendless person and one who is friends with everybody, so either there is nobody in the friendless box or there is nobody in the n-1 box. Either way, there are now n-1 total boxes for n people, so two people must share a box.

I assume you are considering a person out of n having zero friends, then max friends anyone could be with is n-2. It makes total number of boxes to be filled n-1.

@TheTrevTutor In the last example, the pigeonhole isn't anywhere in the 2x2 squares but the holes are just one of the opposite diagonal points on the 2x2 square. So essentially, we have 13 pockets or pigeonholes and we just require 14 dots to violate the sqrt(8) distance rule.

Okay, I have a question on the last problem - I am getting that you can at most have only 13 dots that are at most sqrt(8) away from each other at the same time. Your idea of 16 that you can have 1 dot on each square is not correct, I feel! If I could send you a picture, I would but it seems that adjacent diagonals reuse the same diagonals

Hey TrevTheTutor In that Square grid problem only 13 such points can be inserted. How can you fit 16 points that are sqrt(8) distance apart?? Please help.

did any of you notice that "the minimum number of dots required to place two dots within √8cm of each other is 2? not 17? If you're saying that if we want to fill the board in a way that no dots are within √8cm of each other except two then what's the number of dots required to do that?

the problem with the last example is this: we are trying to fit round pegs in square holes. The vertical and horizontal distance between dots is 2, not 2*sqrt(2). We need to fill the grid with circles whose origins are contained within the grid and along the edges of the other circles. This problem, I believe, is much more complex than is supposed in the video. I love your video series!!

@factsverse9957

4 жыл бұрын

Well yes the vertical and horizontal distance is at max 2, but the furthest distance is the diagonal, which is 2sqrt2 or sqrt8

HELP! I don't get the dots in squares one. If you use 16 dots aren't all the dots < 8^.5 cm apart? So shouldn't the minimum dots be less than 16? I'm confused, can you clarify?

I think the last question is wrong because you're puting the dots in the grid with each cell of size 2 by 2cm. You will get dots separeted by 2cm, less than 2*sqrt(2). I have other approche. Insted of dots, put circles of radius sqrt(2), and expand your 8x8 square to an square of side (8+2*sqrt(2). If you can put 17 circles in this square but no more than that, you are done. But I think it's not posible. I was only able to put 13 circles. The problem is really more complex than you think.

at 12:40, I feel like that's an unnecessarily large bound... I tried to fill in as many dots as I could, and only got 13. I couldn't figure out how to get the 14th dot in without two dots being closer than sqr(8) units. Is there a reason for this smaller number?

Take odd + odd=even; even+even=even; and odd+even=odd; . By pigeonhole principle at least two of the three integers will have same parity (odd or even). Therefore, there are at least 2 odd, or at least 2 even. These sum to an even number by the three rules above.

Prove that, given any 12 natural numbers, we can choose two of them such that their difference is divisible by 11. A proof requires a general, algebraic argument; not just an example. Hint: Consider the remainders mod 11. So i did, {1,12}, {2,11}, {3,10}, {4,9}, {5,8} and {6,7}. but what if i just arrange them to be {1,7}, (2,6} and so on. Your advise is appreciated!

@Trevtutor

8 жыл бұрын

ding siew yap You can arrange them like that, but then it wouldn't capture the idea of the proof. In your question, you want to prove that the difference between two randomly chosen numbers is 11. So instead of "arranging numbers to be convenient", we can think more abstractly and say "what possible remainders mod 11 can we have?". Then you see you can have 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, totalling to 11 different choices. These 11 choices come from the difference of two numbers mod 11. When you arrange these numbers now, you have to take in this consideration so you can arrange them in a way that's convenient and helps you. If you arrange them otherwise, then it becomes more difficult to prove and you'll need a new method. In reality, it doesn't matter how you pair these numbers. But, if you pair them another way, then the proof is not clear at all.

In picking 11 numbers question, I got confused on the question. I understood that we are picking 10 numbers from 1 to 10. So, the last number must be seleceted from 11 to 20. It is OK. So, let's say, we picked 14 as a last number. Also, if we choose 7 and 14, the sum is 21. But, we can choose 2 and 14. And their sum is 16. So, not 21. I mean, there is not guarante that the sum is always 21. Maybe, I did not understand question clearly. But if you help me about this, everything will be clear for me..

basically, in the numbers 1 to 20, you have only 10 sums using 2 distinct numbers, that add up to 21. picking 1 number from each of these sums, isn't enough to pick 11 numbers. Therefore picking both numbers from at least 1 of the sums that sum to 21 is forced.
