Topology

Open sets, continuity, compactness, connectedness: geometry without distance.

IiNkcazo

Introductory Metric spaces and open sets Distance made abstract; open balls, open and closed sets, continuity. distance between (1,2) and (4,6) Core Compactness and connectedness The two properties that make theorems work: extreme values and intermediate values. critical points of x^3 - 3x Advanced Homeomorphism and topological invariants When two spaces are "the same", and what numbers survive stretching. 12 - 30 + 20

What survives when you are allowed to stretch but not tear. Topology makes "nearby" precise without a ruler, and its invariants (connected pieces, holes) are the coarsest and most robust things a space has.

Ezinye zezifundo zitshintshiwe ukusuka kwimibhalo evulekileyo: Wikipedia. Iphepha ngalinye lesifundo linika igama lomcebo walo kunye nelayisensi.

Iimpawu ezisetyenziswa apha

Nqakraza nasiphi na isibonakaliso sokuqonda okupheleleyo, umfanekiso, nokuba iileta zonke zithetha ntoni.

Imibuzo abantu bebuza

Why "a doughnut is a coffee cup"?

Each can be deformed into the other without cutting or gluing: one hole each. Topology studies exactly the properties such deformations preserve.

What is compactness for?

It is the property that makes "every sequence has a convergent subsequence" and "continuous functions attain their maximum" true. On the real line it means closed and bounded.
