needed when working with Euclidean proofs. You need to have a thorough understanding of these items. Your textbook (and your teacher) may want you to remember these theorems with slightly different wording.
Be sure to follow the directions from your teacher. The "I need to know, now!" entries are highlighted in blue. General: Reflexive Property A quantity is congruent (equal) to itself. a = a Symmetric Property If a = b, then b = a. Transitive Property If a = b and b = c, then a = c. Addition Postulate If equal quantities are added to equal quantities, the sums are equal. Subtraction Postulate If equal quantities are subtracted from equal quantities, the differences are equal. Multiplication Postulate If equal quantities are multiplied by equal quantities, the products are equal. (also Doubles of equal quantities are equal.) Division Postulate If equal quantities are divided by equal nonzero quantities, the quotients are equal. (also Halves of equal quantities are equal.)

Formalizing 100 Theorems
There used to exist a "top 100" of mathematical theorems on the web, which is a rather arbitrary list (and most of the theorems seem rather elementary), but still is nice to look at. On the current page I will keep track of which theorems from this list have been formalized. Currently the fraction that already has been formalized seems to be The page does not keep track of all formalizations of these theorems. It just shows formalizations in systems that have formalized a significant number of theorems, or that have formalized a theorem that none of the others have done. The systems that this page refers to are (in order of the number of theorems that have been formalized, so the more interesting systems for mathematics are near the top): HOL Light Mizar Coq C-CoRN Isabelle ProofPower PVS nqthm/ACL2 NuPRL/MetaPRL Theorems in the list which have not been formalized yet are in italics. Formalizations of constructive proofs are in italics too. The difficult proofs in the list (according to John all the others are not a serious challenge "given a week or two") have been underlined. The formalizations under a theorem are in the order of the list of systems, and not in chronological order.

Mathematics
Mathematics is commonly defined as the study of patterns of structure, change , and space ; more informally, one might say it is the study of 'figures and numbers'. In the formalist view, it is the investigation of axiomatically defined abstract structures using logic and mathematical notation ; other views are described in Philosophy of mathematics The specific structures that are investigated by mathematicians often have their origin in the natural sciences , most commonly in physics , but mathematicians also define and investigate structures for reasons purely internal to mathematics, because the structures may provide, for instance, a unifying generalization for several subfields, or a helpful tool for common calculations. Finally, many mathematicians study the areas they do for purely aesthetic reasons, viewing mathematics as an art form rather than as a practical or applied science Mathematics is often abbreviated to math in North America and maths in other English-speaking countries.

    The Four Colour Conjecture first seems to have been made by Francis Guthrie . He was a student at University College London where he studied under De Morgan . After graduating from London he studied law but by this time his brother Frederick Guthrie had become a student of De Morgan . Francis Guthrie showed his brother some results he had been trying to prove about the colouring of maps and asked Frederick to ask De Morgan about them. De Morgan was unable to give an answer but, on 23 October 1852, the same day he was asked the question, he wrote to Hamilton in Dublin. De Morgan wrote:- A student of mine asked me today to give him a reason for a fact which I did not know was a fact - and do not yet. He says that if a figure be anyhow divided and the compartments differently coloured so that figures with any portion of common boundary line are differently coloured - four colours may be wanted, but not more - the following is the case in which four colours are wanted. Query cannot a necessity for five or more be invented. ...... If you retort with some very simple case which makes me out a stupid animal, I think I must do as the Sphynx did.... Hamilton replied on 26 October 1852 (showing the efficiency of both himself and the postal service):- I am not likely to attempt your quaternion of colour very soon.

    Raymond Smullyan Best known for his Incompleteness Theorem, Kurt Gödel (1906-1978) is considered one of the most important mathematicians and logicians of the 20th century. By showing that the establishment of a set of axioms encompassing all of mathematics would never succeed, he revolutionized the world of mathematics, logic and philosophy. Raymond Smullyan was born in 1919 in Far Rockaway, New York. He earned his B.S. at the University of Chicago in 1955 and his Ph. D. at Princeton University in 1959. Smullyan has had a remarkably diverse sequence of careersmathematician, magician, concert pianist, internationally known writer, having authored twenty six books on a wide variety of subjects, six of which are academic, one of them being "Gödel's Theorems". His famous puzzle books are special, in that they are designed to introduce the general reader to deep results in mathematical logic. He currently resides in the upper Catskill Mountains, where he constantly entertains audiences with puzzles, jokes, magic, music and readings - some of which can be found on the internet. Q: You are a trained logician having earned degrees from the University of Chicago and from Princeton University where you studied under, among others, Rudolf Carnap and Alonzo Church, respectively. On top of this, you’ve been a Professor of philosophy for many years at various colleges and universities. How did you go from writing highly technical treatises on logic to writing popular books on mathematical and logical puzzles?

    The story
    In number theory, Fermat's Last Theorem states that no three positive integers a, b, and c can satisfy the equation an + bn = cn for any integer value of n greater than two. This theorem was first conjectured by Pierre de Fermat in 1637, but was not proven until 1995 despite the efforts of many illustrious mathematicians. The unsolved problem stimulated the development of algebraic number theory in the 19th century and the proof of the modularity theorem in the 20th. It is among the most famous theorems in the history of mathematics. Pierre de Fermat died in 1665. Today we think of Fermat as a number theorist, in fact as perhaps the most famous number theorist who ever lived. It is therefore surprising to find that Fermat was in fact a lawyer and only an amateur mathematician. Also surprising is the fact that he published only one mathematical paper in his life, and that was an anonymous article written as an appendix to a colleague's book. Because Fermat refused to publish his work, his friends feared that it would soon be forgotten unless something was done about it. His son, Samuel undertook the task of collecting Fermat's letters and other mathematical papers, comments written in books, etc. with the object of publishing his father's mathematical ideas. In this way the famous 'Last theorem' came to be published. It was found by Samuel written as a marginal note in his father's copy of Diophantus's Arithmetica.

    Our paper integrates results from trade-in-task theory into mainstream trade theory by developing trade-in-task analogues to the four famous theorems (Heckscher-Ohlin, factor price equalisation, Stolper-Samuelson, and Rybczynski) and showing the standard gains-from-trade theorem does not hold for trade-in-tasks. We show trade-in-tasks creates intraindustry trade in a Walrasian economy, and derive necessary and sufficient conditions for analyzing the impact of trade-in-tasks on wages and production. Extensions of the integrating framework easily accommodate monopolistic competition and two-way offshoring/trade-in-tasks.

    Mathematics
    Mathematics (often abbreviated to maths or, in American English math ) is commonly defined as the study of patterns of structure, change, and space. In the modern view, it is the investigation of axiomatically defined abstract structures using formal logic as the common framework, although some contest that this is necessary. The specific structures investigated often have their origin in the natural sciences , most commonly in physics , but mathematicians also define and investigate structures for reasons purely internal to mathematics, because the structures may provide, for instance, a unifying generalization for several subfields, or a helpful tool for common calculations. Finally, many mathematicians study the areas they do for purely aesthetic reasons, viewing mathematics as an art form rather than as a practical or applied science The word "mathematics" comes from the Greek mthema mathematiks ) means "fond of learning". Historically, the major disciplines within mathematics arose out of the need to do calculations in commerce, to measure land and to predict astronomical events. These three needs can be roughly related to the broad subdivision of mathematics into the study of structure, space and change.

    Luitzen Brouwer is famous for his seminal fixed point theorem and also for a philosophy that seems at variance with his own theorem. One of the great things about people is we can hold inconsistent ideas in our heads, and not be too troubled by them.
    Lewis Carroll Brouwer created the mathematical philosophy of intuitionism. and are distinct. The first says that holds for all , while the latter says that we cannot find a counter-example to Vijaya noticed a logical problem, that the new re-sized chip might still be too slow: the issue is that re-sizing the drivers made other wires longer and this may slow them down. So re-apply the algorithm. But wait. Will this ever converge? Or could the process diverge? Or yield a chip that was too large to be practical? Enter BFT. The theorem states that any continuous map of the closed ball to itself has a fixed point. This was exactly what she needed to prove that the re-sizing process always eventually converges.
