Three players (one divider and two choosers) are going to divide a cake fairly using the lone divider method. The divider cuts the cake into three slices (s1, s2, and s3).
If the choosers' declarations are Chooser 1: {s1 , s2} and Chooser 2: {s2 , s3}.
Using the lone-divider method, how many different fair divisions of this cake are possible?
Theorem 2.6 (The Minkowski inequality)
Let p≥1. Suppose that X and Y are random variables, such that E|X|P <∞ and
E|Y P <00. Then
