On a Conjecture about Ron Graham\u27s Sequence
No full textRon Graham\u27s Sequence is a surprising bijection from non-negative integers to non-negative, non-prime integers that was introduced by Ron Graham in the June 1986 Problems column of , and which later appeared in Problem A2 of the 2013 William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition. We describe some properties of this function, give an algorithm for computing its values in pseudo-polynomial time, and prove a 22 year-old conjecture about an upper bound for the function.10 page
Ron Hutchinson, Graham Reid, and the Hard Eighties
No full textThe political and theatrical climate of the 1980s are charted through Graham Reid and Ron Hutchinson, two dramatists who produced their key works in the decade. An apparent (and sentimentalized) ‘golden age’ for Irish and Ulster drama simultaneously accompanied the hardships of deindustrialization. Both writers explored Protestant identity via their exiled trajectories as writers based outside Northern Ireland, reaching large audiences through television drama. Hutchinson—following his Play for Today experiments—would go on to success in America, while Reid’s Billy plays (1982–4) earned plaudits for their depiction of universal working-class life. Through their performed and unproduced projects both Reid and Hutchinson also confront the Reverend Ian Paisley, whose controversial legacy is assessed and contested by other Ulster Protestants, itself a reflection of political diversity within Ulster Protestantism.</p
