Description
Course description
A topological space is a set endowed with a structure which allows for a notion of continuity to be defined. Topology studies such structures, spaces and the way they can be deformed into one another. Firstly, this course covers the fundamentals of topology: Open and closed subspaces, discrete topology, product topology, Euclidean topology, metric spaces, compactness, basis of a topological space, Hausdorff spaces, homeomorphism, continuous maps, pasting lemma, quotient spaces and maps, connected spaces. A detailed list of topics per lecture: here.
Moreover, after introducing the foundational ideas in topology the course covers Algebraic Topology. In algebraic topology, tools from abstract algebra such as groups are used to study topological spaces and find algebraic invariants.
