Erdos Numbers
E-Erdos,F-Danica McCellar,G-Natalie Portman
Erdős–Bacon number – being the sum of one’s Erdős number(the “collaborative distance” in authoring mathematical papers between that person and Paul Erdős) and one’s Bacon number (the number of links, through roles in films, by which the individual is separated from Kevin Bacon). Erdos and Bacon being the known centres of the mathematical and entertainment worlds.
Daniel Kleitman and Hank Aaron each have a Erdos-Bacon number of 3.
Mike Hirschhorn, Dave Bayer come in next with an Erdos-Bacon number of 4.
Paul Erdos himself can only manage a 4 (though if unoffical credits are considered, he also has a combined number of 3).
Danica Mckellar and Natalie Portman both have Erdos-Bacon numbers of 6 and amongst the highest amongst the actors.
Erdos-Bacon numbers :)
E-> Paul Erdos
B -> Josh Gibson
Something to do with the Erdos number?
Because you’ve actually included Paul Erdös in your list, this must be the Erdös-Bacon number.
Also no idea why the list includes Josh Gibson
A = Daniel Kleitman
B = Josh Gibson http://explorepahistory.com/di.....p?imgId=44
C = ?
D = Ronald Graham?
E = Paul Erdös
f = Danica McKellar
G = Natalie Portman
ETA: C = Mike Hirschhorn
Erdos-Bacon number. That’s Daniel Klietman right on top.
Must we identify all of them? Too time-consuming.. eye candies are Danica McKellar and Natalie Portman though :p
Erdos-Bacon numbers be the answer.
One assumes you meant to show Hank Aaron as B, but ended with Josh Gibson of the Homestead Grays for whatever reason :)
