... and C n,n are relatively prime, we can choose integers C j,n and B j,n such that this equation is satisfied. Doing this step by step for all j = n − 1, n − 2, . . . , 1, we finally get B and C such ... is not divisible by 3. Now add triangles P 1 P k P k+2 , P k P k+1 P k+2 and P 1 P k+2 P k+3 . This way we introduce two new triangles at vertices P 1 and P k so parity is preserved. The vertices ... minimum of f on [x, y]. Then f([x, y]) = [f(b), f (a)]; hence y − x = f (a) − f(b) ≤ |a − b| ≤ y − x This implies {a, b} = {x, y}, and therefore f is a monotone function. Suppose f is increasing. Then...
