    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander's_trick

    Some authors use the term Alexander trick for the statement that every homeomorphism of can be extended to a homeomorphism of the entire ball .. However, this is much easier to prove than the result discussed above: it is called radial extension (or coning) and is also true piecewise-linearly, but not smoothly.

  6. General topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_topology

    In mathematics, general topology (or point set topology) is the branch of topology that deals with the basic set-theoretic definitions and constructions used in topology. It is the foundation of most other branches of topology, including differential topology , geometric topology , and algebraic topology .

  7. Simplicial homology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplicial_homology

    A key concept in defining simplicial homology is the notion of an orientation of a simplex. By definition, an orientation of a k-simplex is given by an ordering of the vertices, written as (v 0,...,v k), with the rule that two orderings define the same orientation if and only if they differ by an even permutation.

Topology (from the Greek words τόπος, 'place, location', and λόγος, 'study') is the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties of a geometric object that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching, twisting, crumpling ...
