Kenneth Ira Appel (October 8, 1932 – April 19, 2013) was an American mathematician who in 1976, with colleague Wolfgang Haken at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, solved the four-color theorem by proving that any two-dimensional map, with certain limitations, can be filled in with four colors without any adjacent "countries" sharing the same color.
According to McLarty (2005), this diagrammatic approach to contemporary mathematics largely stems from Mac Lane (1948), who also coined the term Yoneda lemma for a lemma which is an essential background to many central concepts of category theory and which was discovered by Nobuo Yoneda. [9]
