Using induction: Show that player 1 can always win a Nim game in which the number of heaps with an odd number of coins is odd.

Use the branch and bound method to find the optimal solution to the following integer programming problem: maximize 7x1 + 3x2 subject to: 2 x1 + x2 < 9 3 x1 + 2x2 <13 x1, x2 > 0; x1, x2 integer
Instead of using EXCEL Solver to solve this problem directly as an integer programming problem, use EXCEL Solver to solve the LP problems at each branch, with the appropriate constraints added, according to the branch and bound algorithm. Be sure to draw a node and branch diagram to illustrate the procedure, showing the branches that are fathomed, noninteger variables selected, and the optimal solution

For any Gaussian Integer z ∈ ℤ[i] with z = a+bi , define N(z) =a² + b². Using the division algorithm for the Gaussian Integers, we have show that there is at least one pair of Gaussian integers q and r such that w = qz + r with N(r) < N(z).

(a) Assuming z does not divide w, show that there are always two such pairs.

(b) Fine Gaussian integers z and w such that there are four pairs of q and r that satisfy the division algorithm with N(r) < N(z).

Definition 1 (Topological space). Let X be a set. A collection O of subsets of X is called a topology on the set X if the following properties are satisfied:

(1) emptyset ∈ O and X ∈ O.

(2) For all A,B ∈ O, we have A∩B ∈ O (stability under intersection).

(3) For all index sets I, and for all collections {Ui}i∈I of elements of O (i.e., Ui ∈ O for all i ∈ I), we have U i∈I Ui ∈ O (stability under arbitrary unions). A set X equipped with a topology O is called a topological space and the sets in O are called open sets.

Exercise 1. Let X be a set. (1) Consider O_trivial = {emptyset,X}. Prove that O_trivial is a topology on X. (2) Consider O_discrete = P(X). Is O_discrete is a topology on X? Justify briefly your answer. Hint. You have to verify whether the collections O_trivial and O_discrete satisfy the three properties in Definition 1.

Problem 4 (Sets defined inductively) [30 marks] Consider the set S of strings over the alphabet {a, b} defined inductively as follows: • Base case: the empty word λ and the word a belong to S • Inductive rule: if ω is a string of S then both ω b and ω b a belong to S as well. 1. Prove that if a string ω belongs to S, then ω does not have two or more consecutive a’s. 2. Prove that for any n ≥ 0, if ω is a string of length n over the alphabet {a, b} that does not have two or more consecutive a’s, then ω is a string of S.
