1917: Mathematician and philosopher Georg Cantor publishes new theory of sets derived from Gnomon algorithm functions. Colleagues hail it as "a magisterial contribution to science and art of detecting and preventing crimes against mathematical constants."
1984: Mathematician George Pólya publishes new class of Gnomon algorithm functions, based on combinatorics and probability theory, which detect and prevent crimes against mathematical constants.
