The biographical paragraph on his student research identifies the mathematical technique now bearing his name. Used for person identity and the connection to the Banzhaf index, not for legal claims.
By John Banzhaf. The author's own reference page identifies the article as Rutgers Law Review, volume 19, starting p. 317, 1965. That bibliographic evidence does not imply that the article's complete text was inspected.
By Lloyd Shapley. RAND's original report record identifies the year 1952 and document P-295; the later book chapter is a distinct publication record.

The abstract identifies the axiomatic construction of a value. The four-axiom decomposition and uniqueness proof in Shapley value axioms are stated explicitly here.
Primary database record for Recamán's sequence. Relevant locators are its definition, offset-zero initial terms, the comment recording the first repeated value at indices 20 and 24, and the reference to the 29 January 1991 letter by Bernardo Recamán Santos. Later additions to this evolving record are not needed for the 2019 solution.
Official technical manual: IEEE Arithmetic.
Relevant locators: IEEE Arithmetic Model, significand precision and overall bit count; Double Format, field layout and Table 2-5; and Ranges and Precisions in Decimal Representation. The source describes the traditional IEEE double format, now called binary64. It supports the precision and storage calculations for the double-precision floating-point format; no claim about a current processor's execution speed is inferred.

Relevant locators: §1, printed p. 258, definition using signed integer edge weights and the nonnegative-weight convex case; §2.2, printed p. 260, discussion preceding Lemma 4. The self-loop extension and the elementary representation and convexity arguments are stated and proved directly in the solutions.
Official report: University of Oxford Mathematical Institute, public report. The report identifies Trinity Term 2015 on page 1. The A6 commentary on printed page 16 provides question-specific evidence for the year of the damaged-cover A6 paper. It contains performance comments rather than complete worked solutions.
Official manual: One Dimensional Minimization.
The “Caveats” subsection derives the loss of position accuracy proportional to the square root of function-value relative accuracy near a nonzero minimum with positive second derivative. “Minimization Algorithms” describes golden-section search and its linear contraction. The claims concern standard mathematical precision effects, not an assertion that later software releases were available for a historical examination.
Author's authorized chapter previews. Sections 1.7, 1.8 and 1.10 develop invariant probability distributions, convergence to equilibrium and the countable-state Markov chain ergodic theorem for Markov chains. The distinction between a normalizable invariant measure and an invariant measure of infinite mass is crucial on a countably infinite state space.
Original publication: Contributions to the Theory of Games II, pp. 193–216. Publisher record: doi.org/10.1515/9781400881970-012

The paper develops extensive-form games and Kuhn's theorem relating mixed strategies, behavioural strategies and perfect recall. The finite two-round construction is proved directly in the examination solution.

The section “The Expected Utility Property” states the finite-lottery expected utility formula and connects it to the preceding preference axioms. The source's title misspells the second surname; the conventional name used here is Oskar Morgenstern.
Handbook Section 1.3.5.3 distinguishes paired from unpaired observations and equal-variance from unequal-variance inference.

The University of Oxford Part B paper lists Information Theory, B8.4, and Trinity Term 2023 on its cover. Public bundle member:
2022/T/a16551w1.pdf; the cover, rather than the bundle directory name, establishes the year. Printed pp. 2, 3 and 4 contain Questions 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Question 3(b)'s hint prints the incorrect factor in Fano's inequality; the correct factor is , as printed in Question 1(b). Question 3(c)'s repeat-until-success protocol terminates only for , although the initial channel parameter range includes .The final paragraph states Tutte's theorem on perfect matchings in terms of the number of components of odd integer order after deleting a vertex subset. The worked perfect matching theorem for a cubic graph with at most two bridges uses this criterion directly.

The manuscript is held as EA10057 and EA10058. Problem 50 gives a worked circular-field area rule. The linked 1927 edition provides transcription and mathematical commentary; modern symbolic reconstructions must be identified as such.
Digital Library of Mathematical Functions, section 9.7 gives the Airy function asymptotic expansions. Equations 9.7.5 and 9.7.7 give the positive-argument exponential forms; equations 9.7.9 and 9.7.11 give the negative-argument oscillatory forms. Their leading terms determine the factor two and phase shift in the Airy turning-point connection formula.
