Abstract: The Borsuk-Ulam Theorem states that any odd, continuous function from an n-dimensional sphere to n-dimensional Euclidean space has a zero. I will present a new and remarkably simple proof by Ali Taghavi of this theorem in dimension 2, in the context of graded Banach algebras, as well as possible generalizations to noncommutative algebras.
