Problem 1
Solve the following two existence problems:
- You are given [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] integers [math]\displaystyle{ a_1,a_2,\dots,a_n }[/math], such that for each [math]\displaystyle{ 1\leq i\leq n }[/math] it holds that [math]\displaystyle{ i-n\leq a_i\leq i-1 }[/math]. Show that there exists a nonempty subset of these integers, whose sum is equal to [math]\displaystyle{ 0 }[/math].
- You are given two multisets [math]\displaystyle{ A }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ B }[/math], both with [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] integers from [math]\displaystyle{ 1 }[/math] to [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math]. Show that there exists two nonempty subsets [math]\displaystyle{ A'\subseteq A }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ B'\subseteq B }[/math] with equal sum, i.e. [math]\displaystyle{ \sum\limits_{x\in A'}x=\sum\limits_{y\in B'}y }[/math]
