Of particular interest is the case where the base is a prime, and ... Since the left hand side of the inequality of (1) is trivial the method suggested above yields a proof of (1).Brauer’s idea is to build up a large stock of numbers first and use it when the occasion ... composition a number called the weight,whichis the product of the summands. We shall determine the sum w(n)oftheweights of the compositions of n. The generating function of w(n)is∞n=1w(n)xn=∞m=1(x...

... can F and Gbe from a and still have a = F|G? As a rough rule of thumb, the larger the length of a, the closer F and G must be to a.

If neither is an initial segment of the other, then either a(y) = + and b(y) = - or a(y) = - and b(y) = +.In either case ... either of b and c is an initial segment of the other.Now suppose that neither b nor c is an initial segment of the other and such that Ua) + lib) _< a and £(a) + i{c) <_ a.
