DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/VCU_ALPS/23/
 ">Principles of fair division and their relation with Banach-Steinhaus The
 orem</a>\nby Alex Misiats (Virginia Commonwealth University) as part of VC
 U ALPS (Analysis\, Logic\, and Physics Seminar)\n\n\nAbstract\nWhen the de
 mands or desires of one party are in conflict with those of another - be i
 t cutting a cake\,  a divorce\, or an international dispute - no one wants
  to be treated unfairly.  Can mathematics help find procedures that can en
 sure fair resolutions? When only two parties are present\, the famous divi
 de-and-choose method was known since ancient times. Surprisingly enough\, 
 this method was generalized by the founders of functional analysis in Lviv
  school of Mathematics\, Stefan Banach and Hugo Steinhaus\, only fairly re
 cently. In my talk I will describe several ways to approach fair division\
 , and illustrate some of their applications.\n
