Question: I'm not a math person, but wiki-ing "Cauchy's theorem" brings up 3-4 other rules he made, or were named after him. Is this one of those, and should be merged or re-directed? Or is it another one, which should be added to th disambig page? Cantras 19:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a different one. I will add it to disambig page later today. Mhym 19:53, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

There are about a dozen different small generalizations of the Cauchy theorem mentioned in the Connelly's article. They are nice, but not impressive, which is why I didn't include them. Including "orthogonal polyhedra" feels like recentism and undue weight. Please explain here why this is say more impressive than non-convex polyhedra where 4-saddle points are allowed.
