	Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The Brouwer fixed point theorem is named in his honor.
		He proved the simplicial approximation theorem in the foundations of algebraic topology, which justifies the reduction to combinatorial terms, after sufficient subdivision of simplicial complexes, the treatment of general continuous mappings.
		Brouwer adhered to an intuitionist philosophy of mathematics, which is sometimes characterized by saying that its adherents refuse to use the law of excluded middle in mathematical reasoning, and wrote books on the subjects mentioned above in which he proceeded accordingly.

		We do so not because the homology of a simplicial complex is so intrinsically interesting in and of itself, but because the resulting homology theory is identical to the singular homology of the associated topological space
		The proof of this theorem is considerably more difficult than what we have done to this point, requiring the techniques of barycentric subdivision and simplicial approximation, and we refer the interested reader to [1].

		Simplicial approximation J.F. Jardine December 11, 2002 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to display a different approach to the construction of the homotopy theory of simplicial sets and the corresponding equivalence with the homotopy theory of topological spaces.
		Simplicial approximation theory is a part of the classical literature [1],[2* *], but it was never developed in a way that was systematic enough to lead to 1 results about model structures.
		The Milnor Theorem which asserts that the combinatorial homotopy groups of a fibrant simplicial set coincide with the ordinary homotopy groups of its topological realization (Theorem 30) is proved in Section 6, in t* *he presence of a combinatorial proof of the assertion that the subdivision functors preserve anodyne extensions (Lemma 26).

		SimplicialVIEW is a package that implements the simplicial approximation theorem of combinatorial topology using computational geometry for the purpose of visualizing the regions of stability/instability in the parameter space of a robust control problem.
		The space of uncertainty is approximated by a polyhedron invoking Alexandroff's theorem, the vertices of the polyhedron are mapped to the complex plane using the usual Nyquist map, and the Horowitz template is triangulated using the Voronoi diagram/ Delauney triangulation.
		Once a simplicial map between the uncertainty and the template is achieved, computing the pre-image of the simplex containing the origin of the complex plane yields an assembly of simplexes that provides an approximation of the crossover.

	The Simplicial Approximation Theorem
		In the end we will have a function g, homotopic to f, that is a simplicial map on a barycentric subdivision of k.
		The simplicial map carries p to a point on this face, which is still part of τ.
		Therefore g is a simplicial approximation to f.

	Simplicial signed decompositions
		We want to express the indicator function of a simplicial cone as an integer linear combination of the indicator functions of simplicial cones.

	Topological Robust Control
		The boundary behavior of the Nyquist return difference map, as it was introduced by Horowitz in the Quantitative Feedback Theory, is an issue relevant to the celebrated Brouwer domain invariance theorem, the Caratheodory prime end theorem, and the simplicial approximation theorem, the latter being a foundational result of combinatorial, piecewise-linear topology.
		Existence of fast robust stability tests on a subspace of uncertainty is an issue relevant to homotopy theory, obstruction theory, and the Fredholm index approach to K-theory as developed by Michael Atiyah.
		Coutinho) has demonstrated that the theoretical constructions of combinatorial, piecewise-linear topology can be implemented in practise using computational geometry to produce an approximate stability boundary as an assembly of simplexes.

	Combinatorial topology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, combinatorial topology was an older name for algebraic topology, dating from the time when topological invariants of spaces (for example the Betti numbers) were regarded as derived from combinatorial decompositions such as simplicial complexes.
		After the proof of the simplicial approximation theorem this approach provided rigour.
		The change of name, probably in the 1930s, reflected the move to organise topological classes such as cycles modulo boundaries explicitly into abelian groups.

		Brouwer but known to his friends as Bertus, was a Dutch mathematician, a graduate of the University of Amsterdam, who worked in topology, set theory, measure theory and complex analysis.
		His ideas were initially exposed in Beweis des Jordanschen Satzes für N Dimensionen (1912) ("Proof of Jordan's theorem for N dimensions").
		He uncovered some of the main principles, such as triple negation, of intuitionistic logic; which then was taken up by Andrei Kolmogorov and (for a period) by Hermann Weyl, with rather different attitudes.

		The area of the triangle is easily derived, but the area of the hexagon has to wait for the pythagorean theorem.
		I don't like forward references, so if you read through "plane geometry" you will encounter the area of the triangle, the pythagorean theorem, and the area of the hexagon, in that order.

		The book takes the reader on a path starting from a well-motivated robust stability problem, showing the relevance of the simplicial approximation theorem and how it can be efficiently implemented using computational geometry.
		The simplicial approximation theorem serves as a primer to more serious topological issues such as the obstruction to extending the Nyquist map, K-theory of robust stabilization, and eventually the differential topology of the Nyquist map, culminating in the explanation of the lack of continuity of the stability margin relative to rounding errors.
		The book is suitable for graduate students in engineering and/or applied mathematics, academic researchers and governmental laboratories.
