Pompeiu's Theorem Revisited
نویسندگان
چکیده
A quick proof, by construction, of the first part of this result goes as follows: consider a rotation of π/3 radians about the point C that maps point A to point B, and M to M . Clearly, △MCM ′ is equilateral and MM ′ = MC. Since MA = M B, we conclude that △MBM ′ has sides equal to MA,MB, and MC (see Figure 1; all marked angles are equal to π/3 radians). The theorem is not classical in that not every geometry textbook mentions it. Nowadays, it is more likely that a student will encounter this theorem as a corollary of the so-called Ptolemy inequality, named after Claudius Ptolemy, who is credited with the proof of the corresponding equality in a cyclic quadrilateral, that is, a quadrilateral with its four vertices on a circle. A slight drawback, however, of this approach

Kellerer’s theorem revisited
Kellerer’s theorem asserts the existence of a Markovian martingale with given marginals, assumed to increase in the convex order. It is revisited here, in the light of previous papers by Hirsch-Roynette and by G.Lowther.

متن کاملKolmogorov Theorem Revisited
Kolmogorov Theorem on the persistence of invariant tori of real analytic Hamiltonian systems is revisited. In this paper we are mainly concerned with the lower bound on the constant of the Diophantine condition required by the theorem. From the existing proofs in the literature, this lower bound turns to be ofO(ε1/4), where ε is the size of the perturbation. In this paper, by means of careful (...
