Given a finite set
, and the pairwise comparison of the sums of elements of all its subsets (with the empty set defined as having a sum of 0), which amounts to
inequalities, these given comparisons satisfy the following three constraints:
1. The sum of elements of any non-empty subset is greater than 0.
2. For any two subsets, removing or adding the same elements does not change their comparison of the sums of elements.
3. For any two disjoint subsets
and
, if the sums of elements of
and
are greater than those of subsets
and
respectively, then the sum of elements of the union
is greater than that of
.
The question is: Does there necessarily exist a positive solution
that satisfies all these conditions?
