Arranging all permutations on $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ such that there are no common points

We are basically looking at the Cayley graph of $S_n$ where the generating set is the set of all derangements. The question is whether this graph is Hamiltonian. I will quote here a paper by Rasmusse …

Magic $\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}$-square

I'll try to show that we can make a square such that all rows and columns give zero sum. (Where "sum" is meant in the sense described in the question.) I.e., this is the answer to the stronger variant …

"Rocket elements" in bijections $f:\mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{N}$

Choose any infinite set $A\subseteq\mathbb N$ such that $\mu^+(A)=0$. Enumerate both $A$ and $B=\mathbb N\setminus A$ as \begin{align*} A&=\{a_1<a_2< \dots < a_n < \dots\}\\ B&=\{b_1<b_2< \dots < b_n …

Do monotone functions on the interval have an "Alexander duality" property?

Let us try to construct $S$ which is a counterexample to (B) by transfinite induction. (In the style of just-do-it1 proofs.) We will use the fact2 that the set $\mathcal M$ of all monotone non-decrea …
