    For n = 1 the median operator is just the unary identity operation x. For n = 3 the ternary median operator can be expressed using conjunction and disjunction as xy + yz + zx. For an arbitrary n there exists a monotone formula for majority of size O(n 5.3). This is proved using probabilistic method. Thus, this formula is non-constructive. [3]
