4-colour Theorem The 4colour theorem by Chris Fisher Department of Mathematics and Statistics Universityof Regina, Apparently the artist did not realize that four colors would http://mathcentral.uregina.ca/RR/database/RR.09.97/fisher1.html
Extractions: A nice discussion of map coloring can be found in "The Mathematics of Map Coloring," which Professor H.S.M. Coxeter wrote for the Journal of Recreational Mathematics, 2:1 (1969). He began by pointing out that in almost any atlas, 5 or 6 colors are used in a map of the United States to distinguish neighboring states. "Apparently the artist did not realize that four colors would have sufficed. (It is understood that two states may be colored alike if they merely have a point in common, as in the case of Arizona and Colorado.)" This leads to the mathematical question, Can every conceivable map (on a sphere or a plane) be colored with four colors, or does some particular map really need five? The question was first posed in 1852 by Francis Guthrie, a mathematics graduate student in London at the time. He had noticed the sufficiency of four colors for distinguishing the counties in a map of England. The question was passed along to several important British mathematicians (De Morgan, Hamilton), but apparently it was not seriously investigated until Cayley in 1878 challenged the members of the London Mathematical Society to solve it. From that time until its computer solution nearly 100 years later the problem stood alongside Fermat's last theorem among the great mathematical challenge of the century. Like the Fermat problem, the map-coloring question is easily stated and can easily be understood by anybody. Both problems lack any important consequences, yet have led to extraordinarily important new mathematical ideas and techniques. Both problems are alluring and elusive.

Extractions: Description The four-colour theorem is one of the famous problems of mathematics, that frustrated generations of mathematicians from its birth in 1852 to its solution (using substantial assistance from electronic computers) in 1976. The theorem asks whether four colours are sufficient to colour all conceivable maps, in such a way that countries with a common border are coloured with different colours. The book discusses various attempts to solve this problem, and some of the mathematics which developed out of these attempts. Much of this mathematics has developed a life of its own, and forms a fascinating part of the subject now known as graph theory.

Extractions: Menus www.shef.ac.uk/~puremath/theorems/all.html The University of Sheffield Pure Mathematics Department has put its best foot forward in this attempt to demonstrate the inherent interest of mathematics through some of its most intriguing theorems such as the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, Godels Theorem, the Four-colour Theorem and several others. One theorem is featured, the remainder can be accessed through a list on the main page. Although this site suffers from inconsistencies in style, numerous typographical problems, and occasional bad exposition, it has enough saving features to make it worth a visit by students of mathematics, as well as those with an interest in some of the more accessible theorems. It is, after all, a university site, so we werent expecting fireworks. Beside a prim blue bar that provides links to other pages of the universitys site, there is a list of theorems or topics under the heading Other Theorems of the Month: Pythagorean Triples and the Congruent Number Problem Lagranges Four-square Theorem; Bezouts theorem
How To Make Leather Juggling Balls This would illustrate the fourcolour theorem except that the four-colour theoremapplies to maps on a plane rather than maps on a sphere; still, it refers to http://www.pjb.com.au/jug/leatherballs.html
Extractions: These are Peter Billam 's suggestions for making the most personal and the prettiest juggling balls in the universe. The dodecahedral pattern is how balls were made in ancient Greece. Modern footballs are made in a similar way, though they have more faces and are reinforced with a bladder inside. These balls as I make them are stuffed with unhulled millet and don't bounce; I'm not sure how well they would stand up to being used in a bat-and-ball game as I've never tried - in my opinion they're far too beautiful to be hit around in the dirt. They are vulnerable to sharp objects, and to moisture. They can also get scuffed by rough surfaces. If filled tightly, they have a stage-ball feel, nothing like a bean-bag. The patterns are written in Postscript. I find Postscript a very useful language, and write a lot of it: Muscript is my music typesetting program, which produces Postscript output I use Muscript to typeset my own musical compositions and arrangements All the logo gifs and background gifs for my web site are from Postscript originals.

Extractions: RECORDS OF PROCEEDINGS AT MEETINGS ORDINARY MEETING held on Wednesday 23 October 2002 at University College London, London, as a joint meeting on The Four-Colour Theorem held with the British Society for the History of Mathematics. About 100 members and visitors were present for all or part of the meeting. The meeting began at 2.10 pm. The first session was Chaired by Dr J. BARROW-GREEN, Vice-President of the BSHM. Professor N.L. BIGGS introduced a lecture given by R. Wilson on The Four-colour Problem: 1852-1940. Professor Biggs introduced a lecture given by K. Appel and W. Haken on Solving the Four-colour Problem. After Tea, Professor J.T. STUART, FRS, President, assumed the Chair. Six people were elected to Ordinary Membership of the Society: D.J. Acheson, G. Ergun, G.A. Georgiou, V.I. Shrira, R. Steinberg, C. Voll; two people were elected to Associate Membership: C. Birkar, M.P. Lingham; and three people were elected to Reciprocity Membership: A.
