Thriller





För andra betydelser, se Thriller (olika betydelser).


Thriller (eng. "rysare") är en genre i litteratur och film. Thrillern påminner om en obehaglig deckare, likt giallo, men inte med så stor inriktning på själva morden. Snarare tvärtom – så lite av morden som möjligt visas. Thrillers är ofta tämligen realistiska, och det kan kännas som om filmens handling skulle kunna hända i verkligheten. Seriemördare är ett återkommande tema i thrillers. En annan variant är spionthrillern. Den litterära thrillern har sina rötter i äventyrsromanen och skräckromantiken. 1903 kom vad Ken Follett har kallat den första thrillern, Sandbankarnas gåta av Erskine Childers.[1][2] Boken kom att bli inflytelserik på de senare spionromaner som senare skrevs av exempelvis John Buchan och Ian Fleming.


Enligt Jan Broberg i Mord i minne kännetecknas en thriller av att läsaren/publiken jagas upp genom följande:[3]




  1. Jakten: Hjälten eller hjältinnan jagas av brottslingar eller av polisen eller av bägge två. Exempel: I sista minuten av Alfred Hitchcock.


  2. Kurragömmaleken: Rädslan att bli upptäckt. Exempel: Utrikeskorrespondenten av Alfred Hitchcock.


  3. Hotet från det okända: Huvudpersonen vet inte varifrån hotet kommer. Ibland verkar hotet ha övernaturliga orsaker.

An IMO inspired problem

14 4 This problem from IMO 1988 is said to be one of the most elegant ones in functional equations. Problem : The function $f$ is defined on the set of all positive integers as follows: begin{align} f(1) = 1, f(3) &= 3, f(2n) = f(n), \ f(4n+1) &= 2f(2n+1) - f(n), \ f(4n+3) &= 3 f(2n+1) - 2f(n) end{align} Find the number of $n$ with $f(n) = n, 1 leq n leq 1988$. The main idea towards the solution is realizing that these conditions stand for the fact that $f(n)$ just reverses the digits in the binary representation of the number $n$. So, essentially the solution is finding the number of binary pallindromes $leq 1988_{10}$. My question is the following : How to reformulate the problem so that $f(n)$ reverses the digits of $n$ in its ternary representation. Or even better, can we reformulate it for a
