There are two alternative methods of defining the concept of “convergence” of a sequence, one involving explicit mention of the limit, the other (Cauchy's condition) giving a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of the elements of the sequence only. The two definitions are equivalent, because of the property of completeness of the real number system.

The centre of mass G of a triangle has the property that the rays to the vertices from G sweep out triangles having equal areas. We show that such points, termed equipartitioning points in this paper, need not exist in other polygons. A necessary and sufficient condition for a quadrilateral to have an equipartitioning point is that one of its diagonals bisects the other. The general theorem, namely, necessary and sufficient conditions for equipartitioning points for arbitrary polygons to exist, is also stated and proved. When this happens, they are in general, distinct from the centre of mass. In parallelograms, and only in them, do the two points coincide.

This paper shows that the criterion of proportional frequency for (unblocked) orthogonal fractional factorial plans, as suggested by some previous authors, is not generally true. On the other hand, the criterion of equal frequency has been established as a necessary and sufficient condition in the general case. Some other properties of orthogonal fractional factorial plans have been investigated. A necessary and sufficient condition for designs involving two or more blocks has also been presented. A broad class of non-existence results follow.

AbstractThere are two ways that the negligence rule is interpreted. Under one interpretation a negligent injurer is liable for the entire harm to the victim; and under the other interpretation a negligent injurer is liable only for that part of the harm which can be ascribed to his negligence. Both these versions are efficient. However, if there is uncertainty regarding whether the court will be employing the full liability version or the incremental liability version for determining the liability of a negligent injurer, notwithstanding the fact that both the versions are efficient, inefficiency is possible. It is shown in the paper that a necessary and sufficient condition for efficiency in all cases is that the subjective probability with which the injurer expects the standard version to be employed must be greater than or equal to the subjective probability with which the victim expects the standard version to be employed. For the subset of applications without complementarities in the cares of the two parties and which are such that the total social costs are minimized at a unique care-configuration, it is shown that efficiency obtains regardless of the subjective probabilities with which the parties expect the two versions. One very important conclusion that emerges from the analysis of this paper is that when courts employ more than one liability rule, even if all the employed rules are efficient, the efficiency of all outcomes cannot be taken for granted merely on the ground of the efficiency of the employed rules.

In this paper we present a special kind of real symmetric matrices: the real symmetric doubly arrow matrices. That is, matrices which look like two arrow matrices, forward and backward, with heads against each other at the station, . We study a kind of inverse eigenvalue problem and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of such matrices.
