A characterisation of 3-colourable 3-dimensional triangulations
Abstract
We extend Heawood's theorem on the colourability of plane triangulations to triangulations of 3-space. We prove that a triangulation of 3-space can be edge coloured with three colours if and only if all edges have even degree.
