ON REPECHAGE DESIGN IN KNOCKOUT TOURNAMENTS WITH 16 PLAYERS

We propose several new repechage designs for knockout tournaments with 16 players, and then analyze the justness of medal distribution of such a tournament under random draw. The players are linearly ordered by strength, and a measure of justness of a tournament under a particular draw is introduced which depends on results of three (or four) best players. Then we take an average of such measure for every possible draw, and we obtain a measure of justness of a tournament design by which we compare tournaments with repechage designs proposed.
