How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T17473616 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Borsuk’s conjecture in geometry
Borsuk’s conjecture in geometry is a famous (now disproven in higher dimensions) problem in metric geometry that proposed any bounded set in n-dimensional Euclidean space can be partitioned into n+1 subsets of smaller diameter.
-
B.
Carathéodory’s theorem in convex geometry
Carathéodory’s theorem in convex geometry is a fundamental result stating that any point in the convex hull of a set in ℝⁿ can be expressed as a convex combination of at most n+1 points from that set.
-
C.
Sylvester–Gallai theorem
The Sylvester–Gallai theorem is a result in incidence geometry stating that for any finite set of points in the Euclidean plane not all on a single line, there exists a line that passes through exactly two of the points.
-
D.
Helly’s theorem
Helly’s theorem is a fundamental result in convex geometry that gives conditions under which a family of convex sets in Euclidean space has a nonempty common intersection.
-
E.
Erdős distinct distances problem
The Erdős distinct distances problem is a famous question in combinatorial geometry that asks for the minimum number of distinct distances determined by a given number of points in the plane.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
