    Kazimierz Kuratowski (Polish pronunciation: [kaˈʑimjɛʂ kuraˈtɔfskʲi]; 2 February 1896 – 18 June 1980) was a Polish mathematician and logician. He was one of the leading representatives of the Warsaw School of Mathematics .

  3. Kuratowski and Ryll-Nardzewski measurable selection theorem

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuratowski_and_Ryll...

    In mathematics, the Kuratowski–Ryll-Nardzewski measurable selection theorem is a result from measure theory that gives a sufficient condition for a set-valued function to have a measurable selection function. [1] [2] [3] It is named after the Polish mathematicians Kazimierz Kuratowski and Czesław Ryll-Nardzewski. [4]

  4. Kuratowski's free set theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuratowski's_free_set_theorem

    Kuratowski's free set theorem, named after Kazimierz Kuratowski, is a result of set theory, an area of mathematics. It is a result which has been largely forgotten for almost 50 years, but has been applied recently in solving several lattice theory problems, such as the congruence lattice problem .

    Proof without words that a hypercube graph is non-planar using Kuratowski's or Wagner's theorems and finding either K 5 (top) or K 3,3 (bottom) subgraphs. If is a graph that contains a subgraph that is a subdivision of or ,, then is known as a Kuratowski subgraph of . [1]

  6. Zorn's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorn's_lemma

    Zorn's lemma, also known as the Kuratowski–Zorn lemma, is a proposition of set theory. It states that a partially ordered set containing upper bounds for every chain (that is, every totally ordered subset ) necessarily contains at least one maximal element .

  7. Kuratowski's closure-complement problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuratowski's_closure...

    The answer is 14. This result was first published by Kazimierz Kuratowski in 1922. [1] It gained additional exposure in Kuratowski's fundamental monograph Topologie (first published in French in 1933; the first English translation appeared in 1966) before achieving fame as a textbook exercise in John L. Kelley's 1955 classic, General Topology. [2]

  8. Kuratowski embedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuratowski_embedding

    Formally speaking, this embedding was first introduced by Kuratowski, [3] but a very close variation of this embedding appears already in the papers of Fréchet.Those papers make use of the embedding respectively to exhibit as a "universal" separable metric space (it isn't itself separable, hence the scare quotes) [4] and to construct a general metric on by pulling back the metric on a simple ...

  9. Wagner's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagner's_theorem

    Proof without words that a hypercube graph is non-planar using Kuratowski's or Wagner's theorems and finding either K 5 (top) or K 3,3 (bottom) subgraphs. Wagner published both theorems in 1937, [1] subsequent to the 1930 publication of Kuratowski's theorem, [2] according to which a graph is planar if and only if it does not contain as a subgraph a subdivision of one of the same two forbidden ...
