Topology
Open sets, continuity, compactness, connectedness: geometry without distance.
Izifundo
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.
Izifundo eziningi

Where it leads
Ezinye zalezi zifundo zithathwe emathebhu avulekile: Wikipedia. Ikhasi ngalinye lesifundo linikeza igama lomsuka nelayisense.
Amaphawu asetshenziswa lapha
Chofoza noma yiluphi uphawu lwesibonakaliso ukuze uthole ukuchaza okuphelele, isithombe, kanye nokuthi iyiphi inhlamvu ekhona ekhuluma ngaso.
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.
Bhala noma udwebe kukhasi lokulungisa: ngayinye inqubekela phambili, isithombe, impendulo ifihlakele kuze kube ubuza. Isinqumo →
