Generalized Ordered Whist Tournaments For 6n+1 Players, Elyssa Cipriano May 2013

Generalized Ordered Whist Tournaments For 6n+1 Players, Elyssa Cipriano

Honors Projects

In this project, we worked to see if it would be possible to extend the idea of an ordered whist tournament to a generalized whist tournament on 6n or 6n + 1 players. We focused on tournaments where the players are divided into n games of size 6 each consisting of two teams of size 3. We aimed to balance the 3 occasions where the players meet as opponents.

Honors Projects

Ordered Generalized Whist tournaments are a new design. In this

study, we establish that ordered generalized whist tournaments exist for

tournaments with 8n + 1 players, n odd, with 4 players per team.
