The original proof of Bertrand's Theorem


We discuss the paper "A theorem relative to the motion of a point pulled towards a fixed centre" by J.L.F. Bertrand. The result is nowadays known as "Bertrand's Theorem". Modus operandi: The dice will determine who will lead the discussion, so every seminar participant is kindly asked to prepare the paper in advance.
