The usual arrangement is for the actors to stand in an irregular line from one side of the screen to the other, with the actors at the end coming forward a little and standing more in profile than the others.

The usual order relation ≤ on the real numbers is antisymmetric: if for two real numbers x and y both inequalities x ≤ y and y ≤ x hold then x and y must be equal.

There is also a correspondence between confinement in QCD-the fact that the color-field is only different from zero in the interior of hadrons-and the behaviour of the usual magnetic field in the theory of type-II superconductors: there the magnetism is confined to the interiour of the Abrikosov flux-line lattice, i. e., the London penetration depth λ of that theory is analogous to the confinement radius R < sub > c </ sub > of quantum chromodynamics.

Note that if usual data compression algorithms are used, files that are similar when uncompressed may be very different when compressed, and thus the entire file will need to be transferred – local changes in uncompressed files yield global changes in compressed files.
