The '''Nash embedding theorems''' (or '''imbedding theorems'''), named after [[John Forbes Nash]], state that every [[Riemannian manifold]] can be isometrically [[embedding|embedded]] into some [[Euclidean space]].  Isometric means preserving the length of every [[rectifiable path|path]].  For instance, bending without stretching or tearing a page of paper gives an [[isometric embedding]] of the page into Euclidean space because curves drawn on the page retain the same [[arclength]] however the page is bent.

The first theorem is for [[continuously differentiable]] (''C''<sup>1</sup>) embeddings and the second for [[analytic function|analytic]] embeddings or embeddings that are [[smooth function|smooth]] of class ''C<sup>k</sup>'', 3 ≤ ''k'' ≤ ∞. These two theorems are very different from each other; the first one has a very simple proof and is very counterintuitive, while the proof of the second one is very technical but the result is not at all surprising.

The ''C''<sup>1</sup> theorem was published in 1954, the ''C<sup>k</sup>''-theorem in 1956.  The real analytic theorem was first treated by Nash in 1966; his argument was simplified considerably by {{harvtxt|Greene|Jacobowitz|1971}}. (A local version of this result was proved by [[Élie Cartan]] and [[Maurice Janet]] in the 1920s.)  In the real analytic case, the smoothing operators (see below) in the Nash inverse function argument can be replaced by Cauchy estimates.  Nash's proof of the ''C<sup>k</sup>''- case was later extrapolated into the [[h-principle]] and [[Nash–Moser theorem|Nash–Moser implicit function theorem]].  A simplified proof of the second Nash embedding theorem was obtained by {{harvtxt|Günther|1989}} who reduced the set of nonlinear [[partial differential equation]]s to an elliptic system, to which the [[contraction mapping theorem]] could be applied.

'''Theorem.''' Let (''M'',''g'') be a Riemannian manifold and ƒ: ''M<sup>m</sup>'' → '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup> a [[short map|short]] ''C''<sup>∞</sup>-embedding (or [[Immersion (mathematics)|immersion]]) into Euclidean space '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup>, where ''n'' ≥ ''m''+1. Then for arbitrary ε > 0 there is an embedding (or immersion) ƒ<sub>ε</sub>: ''M<sup>m</sup>'' → '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup> which is

In particular, as follows from the [[Whitney embedding theorem]], any ''m''-dimensional Riemannian manifold admits an isometric ''C''<sup>1</sup>-embedding into an ''arbitrarily small neighborhood'' in 2''m''-dimensional Euclidean space.

The theorem has many counterintuitive implications.  For example, it follows that any closed oriented Riemannian surface can be ''C''<sup>1</sup> isometrically embedded into an arbitrarily small [[ball (mathematics)|&epsilon;-ball]] in Euclidean 3-space (there is no such ''C''<sup>2</sup>-embedding since from the [[Gaussian_curvature#Alternative_Formulas|formula for the Gauss curvature]] an extremal point of such an embedding would have curvature ≥ &epsilon;<sup>-2</sup>). And, there exist ''C''<sup>1</sup> isometric embeddings of the hyperbolic plane in '''R'''<sup>3</sup>.

==''C''<sup>''k''</sup> embedding theorem==
==Demos==
The technical statement is as follows: if ''M'' is a given ''m''-dimensional Riemannian manifold (analytic or of class ''C<sup>k</sup>'', 3 ≤ ''k'' ≤ ∞), then there exists a number ''n'' (with ''n'' ≤ ''m''(3''m''+11)/2 if ''M'' is a compact manifold, or ''n'' ≤ ''m''(''m''+1)(3''m''+11)/2 if ''M'' is a non-compact manifold) and an [[injective]] map ƒ: ''M'' → '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup> (also analytic or of class ''C<sup>k</sup>'') such that for every point ''p'' of ''M'', the [[derivative]] dƒ<sub>''p''</sub> is a [[linear operator|linear map]] from the [[tangent space]] ''T<sub>p</sub>M'' to '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup> which is compatible with the given [[inner product space|inner product]] on ''T<sub>p</sub>M'' and the standard [[scalar product|dot product]] of '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup> in the following sense:
: &lang; ''u'', ''v'' &rang; = dƒ<sub>''p''</sub>(''u'') &middot; dƒ<sub>''p''</sub>(''v'')
for all vectors ''u'', ''v'' in ''T<sub>p</sub>M''. This is an undetermined system of [[partial differential equation]]s (PDEs).


The Nash embedding theorem is a global theorem in the sense that the whole manifold is embedded into '''R'''<sup>''n''</sup>. A local embedding theorem is much simpler and can be proved using the [[implicit function theorem]] of advanced calculus.{{Citation needed|date=November 2011}} The proof of the global embedding theorem relies on Nash's far-reaching generalization of the implicit function theorem, the [[Nash–Moser theorem]] and Newton's method with postconditioning. The basic idea of Nash's solution of the embedding problem is the use of [[Newton's method]] to prove the existence of a solution to the above system of PDEs. The standard Newton's method fails to converge when applied to the system; Nash uses smoothing operators defined by [[convolution]] to make the Newton iteration converge: this is Newton's method with postconditioning.  The fact that this technique furnishes a solution is in itself an [[existence theorem]] and of independent interest.  There is also an older method called [[Kantorovich iteration]] that uses Newton's method directly (without the introduction of smoothing operators).
