“…Theorem 2. If n, k and n − k are sufficiently large C(N, α) given by (14) is convex in N(α) for fixed α(N) and hence the global minimum N * (α * ) of N(α) exists for fixed α(N). N * and α * can be obtained by solving the inequalities C(N * , α) ≤ C(N * ± 1, α) for fixed α and C(N, α * ) ≤ C(N, α ± ), for fixed N, for > 0.…”
