BP1248 No straight path passes from a white region to a grey one, then to white again (without hitting black) vs. such a path exists.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
CROSSREFS

Any small amount of convexity along the grey border will cause an example to fit right.

BP1266 Angles either only increase or only decrease as one moves along the curve vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

It does not matter which end of the curve one starts from, nor which "side" angles are measured from, so long as the side is kept consistent.

BP1267 Any two lines intersect, and no three lines share an intersection point vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left-sorted examples divide the plane into a maximal amount of disconnected white regions by a given number of "cuts". The number of regions in one of these examples will be the nth value of of the Lazy Caterer sequence ( https://oeis.org/A000124 ), where n is the number of lines.

BP1268 Palindromic when elements are grouped into (more than one) equal-sized blocks vs. no grouping of elements into (more than one) equal-sized blocks is palindromic.

COMMENTS

Any palindrome would be sorted left, except strings of length zero or one.

BP1273 Sequence contains each possible way its distinct elements can be arranged as a subsequence vs. not so.

EXAMPLE

There are 6 ways of arranging the letters A, B and C: ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, and CBA. The string "ABCABACBA" contains each of these as a substring, and would therefore be sorted left.

BP1274 Reversing the sequence permutes the objects vs. not.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Equivalently, some permutation of the objects reverses the sequence vs. not.


Palindromes fit left. Strings of distinct objects repeated any number of times fit left.
