    Graduate Combinatorial Number Theory Problem

    Maybe I'm missing something, but it looks like for A = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} and B = {1,2,3,5,6,7} S(A) = {3,4, ... 12,13} = S(B), but |A|=7 and |B|=6 Maybe there should be some other restrictions on A and B? (guessing) If neither A nor B may be a subset of the other, then consider...

    ThomasT, This thread has been inactive for a bit, but I hadn't been following it at the time and wanted to make a observation. From your post #389 Under an LR theory, isn't it impossible for particle B (say) to tell whether the detection that's happening is individual or coincidental? If...
