Discrete Jordan Curve Theorem: A proof formalized in Coq with hypermaps

Abstract

This paper presents a formalized proof of a discrete form of the
Jordan Curve Theorem. It is based on a hypermap model of planar
subdivisions, formal specifications and proofs assisted by the Coq
system. Fundamental properties are proven by structural or
noetherian induction: Genus Theorem, Euler's Formula, constructive
planarity criteria. A notion of ring of faces is inductively
defined and a Jordan Curve Theorem is stated and proven for any
planar hypermap.
