The Seven Bridges of Königsberg is a historically notable problem in mathematics. Its negative resolution by Leonhard Euler, in 1736, [1] laid the foundations of graph theory and prefigured the idea of topology. [2] The city of Königsberg in Prussia (now Kaliningrad, Russia) was set on both sides of the Pregel River, and included two large ...
Bottom: A solution on a torus — the dotted line is on the back side of the torus Comparison of the graphs of the Seven bridges of Konigsberg (top) and Five-room puzzles (bottom). The numbers denote the number of edges connected to each vertex.
First edition. Graph Theory, 1736–1936 is a book in the history of mathematics on graph theory.It focuses on the foundational documents of the field, beginning with the 1736 paper of Leonhard Euler on the Seven Bridges of Königsberg and ending with the first textbook on the subject, published in 1936 by Dénes Kőnig.
The correspondence itself is lost, but we can find the main thread of their relationship with Euler's first letter of response. In the letter, Euler talks of the problem of the Seven Bridges of Königsberg, a problem that Ehler brought to Euler's attention. The reason for such an inquiry was the desire by Kuhn and Ehler to encourage ...
The Bristol Bridges Walk is a circular hiking route that is linked to the Königsberg bridge problem, a mathematical puzzle, which laid the foundation for graph theory, the mathematical study of networks. [2] [3] [4] The Bristol Bridges Walk presents a solution of the puzzle for the city of Bristol. [5]
Multigraphs of both Königsberg Bridges and Five room puzzles have more than two odd vertices (in orange), thus are not Eulerian and hence the puzzles have no solutions. Every vertex of this graph has an even degree. Therefore, this is an Eulerian graph. Following the edges in alphabetical order gives an Eulerian circuit/cycle.

Seven Bridges of Königsberg – Walk through a city while crossing each of seven bridges exactly once. [6] Squaring the circle, the impossible problem of constructing a square with the same area as a given circle, using only a compass and straightedge. [7]
