Readers of the book are expected to already be familiar with general topology, linear algebra, and group theory. [1] However, as a textbook, it lacks exercises, and reviewer Bill Wood suggests its use for a student project rather than for a formal course. [1] Many other graduate algebraic topology textbooks include coverage of the same topic. [4]

Among his several books and standard topology and algebraic topology textbooks are: Elements of Modern Topology (1968), Low-Dimensional Topology (1979, co-edited with T.L. Thickstun), Topology: a geometric account of general topology, homotopy types, and the fundamental groupoid (1998), [15] [16] Topology and Groupoids (2006) [17] and ...
It provides, in the classical setting of field theory, an alternative perspective to that of Emil Artin based on linear algebra, which became standard from about the 1930s. The approach of Alexander Grothendieck is concerned with the category-theoretic properties that characterise the categories of finite G -sets for a fixed profinite group G .
He was known for his book on non-Euclidean geometry (1st edition, 1974; 4th edition, 2008) [3] [4] and his book on algebraic topology (1st edition, 1967, published with the title Lectures on Algebraic Topology; revised edition published, with John R. Harper as co-author, in 1981 with the title Algebraic Topology: A First Course). [5] [6] [7]
In mathematics, topological K-theory is a branch of algebraic topology. It was founded to study vector bundles on topological spaces, by means of ideas now recognised as (general) K-theory that were introduced by Alexander Grothendieck. The early work on topological K-theory is due to Michael Atiyah and Friedrich Hirzebruch.
Algebraic topology is a branch of mathematics in which tools from abstract algebra are used to study topological spaces The main article for this category is Algebraic topology . Contents
Tammo tom Dieck 1972. Tammo tom Dieck (29 May 1938, São Paulo) is a German mathematician, specializing in algebraic topology.. Tammo tom Dieck studied mathematics from 1957 at the University of Göttingen and at Saarland University, where he received his promotion (Ph.D.) in 1964 under Dieter Puppe with thesis Zur -Theorie und ihren Kohomologie-Operationen.
