Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The Tristam Shandy paradox as discussed by the authors states that every second a genie throws ten balls into an urn and at every throw he adds the next ten numbers to the urn so that at the nth throw the balls numbered lOn-9, l On-8, 10n(n_ 1) are added.
Abstract: Introduction. A simple "paradox" relating to the enumeration of the elements in a countable set may be described in the following way. Every second a genie throws ten balls into an urn. The balls are numbered 1, 2, * * * and at every throw he adds the next ten numbers to the urn so that at the nth throw the balls numbered lOn-9, lOn-8, 10n(n_ 1) are added. This goes on forever. Another genie removes one ball from the urn after each addition, but he must guarantee that every ball will eventually be thrown out. If he can see the balls, there is of course no problem. He can remove the balls 1, 2, 3, * successively and for any natural number k, he knows when it enters the urn and when it is removed. It enters the urn at the [k/10] + 1st throw and is removed after the kth throw. Though the number of balls in the urn tends to infinity, any given ball is eventually thrown out. No ball stays in the urn forever. This is one of the paradoxes of infinity, stated by Georg Cantor and discussed as the "Tristam Shandy paradox" by Russell [7]. For every k, the length of time Tk spent in the urn by the ball k is given by


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the row rank and column rank are equal in the subspace of Fin spanned by the rows of A and column space of F71 spanned the columns of A. The row rank is the dimension of the row space of A, and the column rank of A is the dimensions of the column space.
Abstract: Let A = (aij) be an n X m matrix with entries in a field F. Each of the n rows -of A can be regarded as a vector in coordinate m-space, Fm, and each of the m columns of A can be regarded as a vector in Fn. The row space of A is the subspace of Fin spanned by the rows of A and column space of A is the subspace of F71 spanned by the columns of A. The row rank of A is the dimension of the row space of A and the column rank of A is the dimension of the column space of A. It is proved in most undergraduate courses in linear algebra that the row rank and column rank are equal. This can be done by resorting to the determinants of square minors of A [3, pp. 22-24], or by computing the dimension of the solution space of a certain system of linear equations [2, pp. 47-51]. Products of linear transformations and the matrices associated with them can also be employed [1, pp. 234-235; 5, pp. 35, 42, 48-50; and 6, pp. 100-108]. In [4] Liebeck gives a short proof valid only for complex scalars. The purpose of this note is to present two very simple proofs that row rank and column rank are equal without resorting to any of these notions. Undergraduates should easily follow our arguments which the authors have not seen in any of the standard texts on linear algebra.
