File: BelaBollobas [[[> images/bela.png _ "Béla Bollobás revives an _ ancient proof technique" ]]] Béla Bollobás has both a Ph.D. and a D.Sc. from Cambridge University, a Dr.Rer.Nat. from Budapest, and an ErdosNumber of 1. Much more can be found about him from the web, but I think the picture and accompanying caption sum it up admirably. The original can be found at: * http://cs.anu.edu.au/people/bdm/gallery/bollobas.html It has been claimed that Bela has a Bacon number of 4, but that is currently disputed, because the "Gene Patterson" in "N is a Number" may not be the same Gene Patterson as is in "Box of Moon Light". IMDB says they're the same, * http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0666213/ but that's disputed by the Erdos Number Project: * http://www.oakland.edu/enp/related.html More can be found on that page. ---- See also PaulErdos, RonGraham, ColinWright
