The Jordan curve theorem is non-trivial

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics and the Arts, 2011
The formal mathematical definition of a Jordan curve (a non-self-intersecting continuous loop in the plane) is so simple that one is often lead to the unimaginative view that a Jordan curve is nothing more than a circle or an ellipse.

The Jordan curve theorem in the Khalimsky plane [PDF]

open access: yesApplied General Topology, 2008
The connectivity in Alexandroff topological spaces is equivalent to the path connectivity. This fact gets some specific properties to Z2, equipped with the Khalimsky topology.

The Jordan Curve Theorem, Formally and Informally [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Mathematical Monthly, 2007
curve separates the plane into a bounded interior region and an unbounded exterior. One hundred years ago, Oswald Veblen declared that this theorem is “justly regarded as a most important step in the direction of a perfectly rigorous mathematics ” [13, p.

A combinatorial analog of the Jordan Curve Theorem

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Theory Series B, 1983
The concept of the genus of a pair of permutations is defined in the same manner as was done by Jacques. The integrality of the genus is proven in a new way by applying a technique developed by Walkup for the reduction of products of permutations.

The Complexity of Hex and the Jordan Curve Theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Jordan curve theorem and Brouwer's fixed-point theorem are fundamental problems in topology. We study their computational relationship, showing that a stylized computational version of Jordan’s theorem is PPAD-complete, and therefore in a sense ...

A Jordan curve theorem for 2-dimensional tilings [PDF]

open access: yesTopology and Its Applications, 2021
The classical Jordan curve theorem for digital curves asserts that the Jordan curve theorem remains valid in the Khalimsky plane. Since the Khalimsky plane is a quotient space of $\mathbb R^2$ induced by a tiling of squares, it is natural to ask for which other tilings of the plane it is possible to obtain a similar result.

A digital analogue of the Jordan curve theorem

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2003
We study certain closure operations on Z2, with the aim of showing that they can provide a suitable framework for solving problems of digital topology. The Khalimsky topology on Z2, which is commonly used as a basic structure in digital topology nowadays,

Strong Szegő Theorem on a Jordan Curve

open access: yes, 2022
We consider certain determinants with respect to a sufficiently regular Jordan curve γ in the complex plane that generalize Toeplitz determinants which are obtained when the curve is the circle.
