In mathematics, a toy theorem is a simplified version of a more general theorem. For instance, by introducing some simplifying assumptions in a theorem, one obtains a toy theorem. Usually, a toy theorem is used to illustrate the claim of a theorem. It can also be insightful to study proofs of a toy theorem derived from a non-trivial theorem. Toy theorems can also have education value. After presenting a theorem (with, say, a highly non-trivial proof), one can sometimes give some assurance that the theorem really holds, by proving a toy version of the theorem. For instance, a toy theorem of the Brouwer fixed-point theorem is obtained by restricting the dimension to one. In this case, the Brouwer fixed-point theorem follows almost immediately from the intermediate value theorem. ==See also== *toy model *Corollary *lemma (mathematics) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toy theorem」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
