Abstract
We give a constructive proof of the fact that for any sequence of posi tive integers n(1), n(2),..., n(N) there is a subsequence m(1),..., m( r) for which GRAPHICS where C is a positive constant. Uchiyama previou sly proved the above inequality with the right-hand side replaced by C root N. We give a polynomial time algorithm for the selection of the subsequence m(j).
