化圆为方

化圆为方:求一正方形,其面积和一已知圆的面积相同。

化圆为方是古希腊数学里尺规作图领域当中的命题,和三等分角、倍立方问题被并列为尺规作图三大难题。其问题为:求一正方形,其面积等于一给定圆的面积。如果尺规能够化圆为方,那幺必然能够从单位长度出发,用尺规作出长度为\pi的线段。

进入十九世纪后,随着群论和域论的发展,数学家对三大难题有了本质性的了解。尺规作图问题可以归结为判定某些数是否满足特定的条件,满足条件的数也被称为规矩数。所有规矩数都是代数数。而1882年,数学家林德曼证明了\pi为超越数,因此也证实该问题仅用尺规是无法完成的。

如果放宽尺规作图的限制或允许使用其他工具,化圆为方的问题是可行的。如借助西皮阿斯的割圆曲线,阿基米德的螺线等。

Squaring the circle 化圆为方

Squaring the circle: the areas of this square and this circle are both equal to π. In 1882, it was proven that this figure cannot be constructed in a finite number of steps with an idealized compass and straightedge.Some apparent partial solutions gave false hope for a long time. In this figure, the shaded figure is the Lune of Hippocrates. Its area is equal to the area of the triangle ABC (found by Hippocrates of Chios).
A partial history by Florian Cajori of attempts at the problem.[4]

Squaring the circle is a problem proposed by ancient geometers. It is the challenge of constructing a square with the same area as a given circle by using only a finite number of steps with compass and straightedge. More abstractly and more precisely, it may be taken to ask whether specified axioms of Euclidean geometry concerning the existence of lines and circles entail the existence of such a square.
