post your favourite kino theorems, I'll start
Hilbert Projection Theorem
>In a hilbert space, every nonempty convex set has a unique point minimizing the distance to a point outside the set
Rademacher theorem
> every real valued function defined on a real valued open subset and Lipschitz is differentiable almost everywhere

Something’s wrong in your Hilbert projection theorem statement.

Consider the reals, this is a Herbert space.
Consider the set of all points between but not including 0 and 1, this set is convex.
Consider the point at 1, which is not in the set.
There is not any (let along unique) point in the set (0 , 1) that attains the minimum distance between points in (0, 1) and 1; proof: assume for the sake of contradiction there is such a point x in (0,1). But (1+x)/2 is also in the set yet is closer to 1 than x is, thus contradicting the assumption. QED

>>14629021
okay, forgot the set has to be also closed, for obvious reasons.

The point in (0,1) closest to 1 is clearly 0.999....

the intersection of your mathematical abilities with the set tools needed for mentally grasping the perfectly valid theory of real numbers forms an empty set.

does /sci/ do math?

>> No.14631222

My favorites are spectral theorem, Banach-Alaoglu, and Atiyah-Singer index theorem.

Kronecker's theorem on simultaneous approximation. Besides the theorem and its proof being very cool, ironically it's completely nonconstructive.

can you explain those a bit, what the entail and where they are used? they sound interesting

which proof? there are several of them

I had in mind the beautiful proof presented in Cassels book on Diophantine approximation. There is another proof? How is it different?

Preferably all, since I know none of them, but you can pick your favourite of those
