May 26, 2015 at 9:28 comment added HJRW @WillieWong, as someone who has often heard the term 'h-principle', but didn't know that it was inspired by Nash (among others), I'm very glad you mentioned it!
May 26, 2015 at 7:53 comment added Willie Wong In terms of keywords (since I haven't seen it mentioned on this page yet), the Nash-Kuiper theorem is one of the examples that led to the development of the h-principle. (Of course, those who would recognize this keyword probably would also know about Nash's contributions, so maybe it is not that key to include it...)
