ILL 1988 Problem 11

    Let u1,u2,…,umu_1, u_2, \ldots, u_m be mm vectors in the plane, each of length ≤1,\leq 1, with zero sum. Show that one can arrange u1,u2,…,umu_1, u_2, \ldots, u_m as a sequence v1,v2,…,vmv_1, v_2, \ldots, v_m such that each partial sum v1,v1+v2,v1+v2+v3,…,v1,v2,…,vmv_1, v_1 + v_2, v_1 + v_2 + v_3, \ldots, v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_m has length less than or equal to 5.\sqrt {5}.
