The Jordan curve theorem, formalized in Lean 4 against Mathlib: a continuous injective map from the circle into the plane has a complement with exactly two connected components. The hypothesis is bare continuity and injectivity — no smoothness, piecewise-linearity or rectifiability — which is what makes the theorem hard and what separates it from the polygonal case. The proof follows Maehara's reduction to the Brouwer fixed point theorem, via a crossing lemma for transversal paths in a rectangle and the fact that every component has the curve as its boundary, together with a farthest-pair…
