MHB Find the probability that each group has an equal amount of odd and even numbers

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the probability of specific outcomes when dividing a set of numbers from 1 to 4N into two equal groups. Participants seek to determine the likelihood that each group contains an equal number of odd and even numbers, as well as the distribution of numbers divisible by N. There is a request for clarification on the sequence of numbers, indicating a need for a more detailed explanation of the set. The conversation highlights the complexities involved in probability calculations related to group distributions. Overall, the thread emphasizes the importance of clear definitions in mathematical discussions.

A set of numbers 1,2,...,4N gets randomly divided into two groups with equal amount of numbers. Calculate the probability:7
a) Each group has an equal amount of odd and even numbers,
b) All numbers that are divisible by N, to fall in only one of the groups,
c) All numbers that are divisible by N, to be divided equally in the two groups.

It's unclear, at least to me, what the sequence noted as 1, 2, ..., 4N is. You need to give a better description. What is intended?
 
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
