For a hypergraph

--fold symmetric product is
Δ
. We give several upper and lower bounds for the
d

= (V

,{ E

| E ∈

})
c
-color discrepancy of such products. In particular,
we show that the bound

(Δ

P. Wehr, Discrepancy of

cannot be extended to more than
c = 2
colors. In fact, for any
c
and
d
such that
c
does not divide
d!
, there are hypergraphs having arbitrary large
discrepancy and

better than the general direct product

The first source gives you the `gzipped' PostScript, the second the plain PostScript and the third the format for the Adobe accrobat reader. Depending on the installation of your web browser, at least one of these should (after some amount of time) pop up a window for you that shows the full article. If this is not the case, you should contact your system administrator to install your browser correctly.
Due to limitations of your local software, the two formats may show up differently on your screen. If eg you use xpdf to visualize pdf, some of the graphics in the file may not come across. On the other hand, pdf has a capacity of giving links to sections, bibliography and external references that will not appear with PostScript.
