We present a simple short proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, without complex analysis and with a minimal use of topology. It can be taught in a first year calculus class.
We present a short proof of Jin's theorem which is entirely elementary, in the sense that no use is made of nonstandard analysis, ergodic theory, measure theory, ultrafilters, or other advanced tools. The given proof provides the explicit…
We prove a uniformization theorem in complex algebraic geometry.
Most of the assertions in the theory of well ordered sets are quite simple. However, one of its central statements, Zermelo's theorem, stands out of this rule, for its well-known proofs are rather complicated. The aim of the current paper…
We present a short proof of the central limit theorem which is elementary in the sense that no knowledge of characteristic functions, linear operators, or other advanced results are needed. Our proof is based on Lindeberg's trick of…
We present an elementary proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra, following Cauchy's version but avoiding his use of circular functions. It is written in the same spirit as Littlewood's proof of 1941, but reduces it to more elementary…
Arguably the simplest variation of this style of proof as we avoid reducing to the cubic case entirely.
A very simple and short proof of the polynomial matrix spectral factorization theorem (on the unit circle as well as on the real line) is presented, which relies on elementary complex analysis and linear algebra.
A very simple but useful almost sure convergence theorem of probability is given.
We give a purely combinatorial proof of the density Hales--Jewett Theorem that is modeled after Polymath's proof but is significantly simpler. In particular, we avoid the use of the equal-slices measure and work exclusively with the uniform…
We give a short proof of Stein's universal multiplier theorem, purely by probabilistic methods, thus avoiding any use of harmonic analysis techniques (complex interpolation or transference methods).
We present a simple proof of monotonicity for cooperative systems of linear ordinary differential equations, without having recourse to approximation by strongly cooperative systems.
