Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We prove that, for any positive integer m, a segment may be partitioned into m possibly degenerate or empty segments with equal values of a continuous function f evaluated on segments, assuming that f may take positive and negative values, but its value on degenerate or empty segments is zero.
