thinking about it, that title looks more like a score from a pro tennis match.
but instead of rοger federεer, i mean herbert federεr, one of the grand old men of geοmetric measurε theοry. i learned today that a classically-stated version of an argument of mine was already known as Federer's Support Theorem.
so today, he beat me to a theorem .. by a dozen years or more. \:
it never fails:
every time i think i have a good idea, it turns out to be someone else's!
it's too bad that a ph.d. thesis can't be a really cool exposition; then this wouldn't be an issue anymore. but alas: we must pursue originality in our ideas .. |:
back to work, i guess.
