✦ Synopsis

Given a set of points in Euclidean space, we say that two linear functionals differ on that set if they give rise to different linear orderings of the points. We investigate what the largest and smallest number of different linear functionals can be as a function of the number of points and the dimension of the space.

## Abstract A choice set for a computable linear ordering is a set which contains one element from each maximal block of the ordering. We obtain a partial characterization of the computable linear order‐types for which each computable model has a computable choice set, and a full characterization i

We consider an inΓΏnite sequence X 1 ; X 2 ; : : : of independent random variables having a common continuous distribution function F(x). For 1 6 i 6 n, let {X i:n } denote the ith order statistic among X 1 ; : : : ; X n . In this paper, we characterize the distributions for which the regression E((X
