One of these situations named for the Marquis de Condorcet [kon-dawr-say] can arise when three people are voting on three options by ranking them. Several of these problems, including one involving the set of all sets that are not members of themselves, are associated with Bertrand Russell. The one named for liars consists of the statement, "This sentence is false." Several others, including one involving an arrow in flight, are credited to the Greek philosopher Zeno of Elea.
