  3. Topological manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_manifold

    It is common to place additional requirements on topological manifolds. In particular, many authors define them to be paracompact [3] or second-countable. [2] In the remainder of this article a manifold will mean a topological manifold. An n-manifold will mean a topological manifold such that every point has a neighborhood homeomorphic to R n.

  4. Local diffeomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_diffeomorphism

    A map is a local diffeomorphism if and only if it is a smooth immersion (smooth local embedding) and an open map.. The inverse function theorem implies that a smooth map : is a local diffeomorphism if and only if the derivative: is a linear isomorphism for all points .

  6. Differential topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_topology

    In mathematics, differential topology is the field dealing with the topological properties and smooth properties [a] of smooth manifolds.In this sense differential topology is distinct from the closely related field of differential geometry, which concerns the geometric properties of smooth manifolds, including notions of size, distance, and rigid shape.

    In topology, a branch of mathematics, a collar neighbourhood of a manifold with boundary is a neighbourhood of its boundary that has the same structure as [,).. Formally if is a differentiable manifold with boundary, is a collar neighbourhood of whenever there is a diffeomorphism: [,) such that for every , (,) =.

  9. Smooth structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_structure

    A smooth structure on a manifold is a collection of smoothly equivalent smooth atlases. Here, a smooth atlas for a topological manifold is an atlas for such that each transition function is a smooth map, and two smooth atlases for are smoothly equivalent provided their union is again a smooth atlas for .
