Four Colour Theorem four colour theorem. four colour theorem. The four colour theorem statesthat any planar (flat 2d) map needs only 4 colours to be coloured in. http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~perry/maths/fourcolour/fourcolour.htm
Extractions: Four Colour Theorem The four colour theorem states that any planar (flat 2d) map needs only 4 colours to be coloured in. There is only one rule, adjacent regions must be in different colours. Regions that are connected at a point are not adjacent. The above image shows a skeleton map that needs colouring, and two possible colourings. There are generally many alternatives using only 4 colours, and the Four Colour theorem asks 'Is there a map that we can create that requires 5 colours?'. The first colouring is created using an agressive technique - a colour is applied to a random region, and then, again randomly, to as many regions as possible. Once exhausted, another colour is used. The second counts the regions - 12 in this case, and then creates 3 regions of each colour. This raises an important point. We can colour the maps using 5 colours, but we only NEED four. And is it possible to create a scenario where 4 colours does not seem to be enough, but there will be an different pattern that does colour the map in four. A simple proof of this theorem has eluded mathematicians for centuries, but here is a proof that the four colour theorem is true, and that there is no planar map that needs 5 or more colours.

The Four Colour Theorem Question is there an actual equation for the four colour map theorem? i cannotfind it anywhere!! if so can you give a breif description on how it works!! http://mathcentral.uregina.ca/QQ/database/QQ.09.02/rhonda1.html
Extractions: Hi Rhonda, The theorem is just that, a theorem, and it proves that any map in the plane can be coloured properly with just 4 colours. That is not the same as saying that there is an efficient algorithm to 4-colour any planar map; it just assures us that it can actually be done. Thus unless your map is quite small and not too complicated it may be a very difficult task indeed to actually colour it properly with 4-colours. Cheers, Penny

Some thought that this brought the philosophical status of the proof into doubt. There are now rumours of a simpler proof, not requiring the use of a computer. See also chromatic number
