Polya urns.
An urn contains two balls: a white one and a black one. At each
time a ball is drawn from the urn. The contents of the urn are
then altered, puting one more ball in the urn of the same color
of the drawn ball. Study the dynamic of the urn.

V : The smallest fraction with integers is one half; you can't
have a smaller one.
V : 1 isn't possible, the smallest fraction is 12.
T : Can you explain?
V : For the second question: a = 2; b = 3; c = 6 for the third
question: 3 a = 2; b = 3; c = 9; d = 18
R : Why is the �rst question impossible?
V : Write the �rst (fractions with numerator 1)
R : And why is it impossible?
V : In any case, a must be 2
R : Perhaps, is there an other fraction with a numerator 1
which gives 0.5...

Polya's urn
An urn contains two balls: a white one and a black one. At
each time a ball is drawn from the urn. The contents of the
urn are then altered, puting one more ball in the urn of the
same color of the drawn ball. Study the contents of the urn.

Link between experiment and knowledge's
institutionalization
The experiments are local;
Institutionalization has to take into account the di�erent
approaches;
The mathematical analysis helps to understand these
di�erent approaches.

The experiments are local;
Institutionalization has to take into account the di�erent
approaches;
The mathematical analysis helps to understand these
di�erent approaches.
