MSI Colloquium
On theorems by C.Jordan and K.Kuratowski
Emeritus Professor Helge Tverberg
University of Bergen (Norway)
Abstract
The Jordan Curve Theorem and Kuratowski's theorem on nonplanar graphs are both important and nice. It seems, however, that many mathematicians have never seen a proof of either of them. In the talk I will present proofs which only use what is common knowledge among mathematicians.
