  3. Internal set theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_set_theory

    Internal set theory (IST) is a mathematical theory of sets developed by Edward Nelson that provides an axiomatic basis for a portion of the nonstandard analysis introduced by Abraham Robinson. Instead of adding new elements to the real numbers , Nelson's approach modifies the axiomatic foundations through syntactic enrichment.

  7. Hadwiger–Nelson problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadwiger–Nelson_problem

    According to Jensen & Toft (1995), the problem was first formulated by Nelson in 1950, and first published by Gardner (1960). Hadwiger (1945) had earlier published a related result, showing that any cover of the plane by five congruent closed sets contains a unit distance in one of the sets, and he also mentioned the problem in a later paper (Hadwiger 1961).
