SUMMARY

The forum discussion highlights a dimensional proof of Pythagoras' theorem found on page two of the document located at http://www.physics.smu.edu/%7Eolness/cteqpp/DimReg.5.pdf. The proof is associated with dimensional regularization, a technique often used in theoretical physics. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding dimensional regularization to fully grasp the proof's implications. The discussion encourages readers to explore the document for deeper insights into both the theorem and dimensional regularization.

I found this beauty and just had to post it here. It is on the second page of the following link:

http://www.physics.smu.edu/~olness/cteqpp/DimReg.5.pdf

The rest of the file has to do with dimensional regularization, so you will need some more background to understand what is going on, but it is worth looking at also.
