Book Synopsis Elementary Point-Set Topology by : Andre L. Yandl
Download or read book Elementary Point-Set Topology written by Andre L. Yandl and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2016-04-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In addition to serving as an introduction to the basics of point-set topology, this text bridges the gap between the elementary calculus sequence and higher-level mathematics courses. The versatile, original approach focuses on learning to read and write proofs rather than covering advanced topics. Based on lecture notes that were developed over many years at The University of Seattle, the treatment is geared toward undergraduate math majors and suitable for a variety of introductory courses. Starting with elementary concepts in logic and basic techniques of proof writing, the text defines topological and metric spaces and surveys continuity and homeomorphism. Additional subjects include product spaces, connectedness, and compactness. The final chapter illustrates topology's use in other branches of mathematics with proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra and of Picard's existence theorem for differential equations. "This is a back-to-basics introductory text in point-set topology that can double as a transition to proofs course. The writing is very clear, not too concise or too wordy. Each section of the book ends with a large number of exercises. The optional first chapter covers set theory and proof methods; if the students already know this material you can start with Chapter 2 to present a straight topology course, otherwise the book can be used as an introduction to proofs course also." — Mathematical Association of America
Book Synopsis Elements of Point Set Topology by : John D. Baum
Download or read book Elements of Point Set Topology written by John D. Baum and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topology continues to be a topic of prime importance in contemporary mathematics, but until the publication of this book there were few if any introductions to topology for undergraduates. This book remedied that need by offering a carefully thought-out, graduated approach to point set topology at the undergraduate level. To make the book as accessible as possible, the author approaches topology from a geometric and axiomatic standpoint; geometric, because most students come to the subject with a good deal of geometry behind them, enabling them to use their geometric intuition; axiomatic, because it parallels the student's experience with modern algebra, and keeps the book in harmony with current trends in mathematics. After a discussion of such preliminary topics as the algebra of sets, Euler-Venn diagrams and infinite sets, the author takes up basic definitions and theorems regarding topological spaces (Chapter 1). The second chapter deals with continuous functions (mappings) and homeomorphisms, followed by two chapters on special types of topological spaces (varieties of compactness and varieties of connectedness). Chapter 5 covers metric spaces. Since basic point set topology serves as a foundation not only for functional analysis but also for more advanced work in point set topology and algebraic topology, the author has included topics aimed at students with interests other than analysis. Moreover, Dr. Baum has supplied quite detailed proofs in the beginning to help students approaching this type of axiomatic mathematics for the first time. Similarly, in the first part of the book problems are elementary, but they become progressively more difficult toward the end of the book. References have been supplied to suggest further reading to the interested student.

Book Synopsis Elementary Topology by : Guilford Spencer
Download or read book Elementary Topology written by Guilford Spencer and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to point set topology for undergraduates. Many of the classic textbooks on the subject cover the subject exhaustively and at the highest possible level of generality. The result of using traditional textbooks has been that students spend 2 semesters learning far more general topology on abstract spaces then most of them will ever need to use or know. More importantly, students get the impression from geometers and topologists in later courses that they "wasted" a year of their studies learning material that most mathematicians don't even consider topology anymore. This leaves many of them feeling deceived and frustrated. Unfortunately, the reaction has been in recent decades to write elementary topology textbooks that only present the barest minimum of point set topology needed for students in advanced geometry or algebraic topology. Indeed-some recent beginning textbooks in topology largely skip general topology altogether and jump straight into algebraic and geometric topology such as homotopy, curves and surfaces! We believe this ludicrous solution is essentially throwing the baby out with the bathwater. This reissued edition of Hall/ Spencer should seriously be considered by mathematicians as the benchmark for such a course. The book contains what we believe to be approximately the irreducible minimum of point set topology any student of mathematics needs to learn regardless of level or interest. The book is quite detailed, covering sufficient general topology of interest and use for analysts, geometers and topologists. The book falls into two rather distinct parts. The first half is concerned with an introductory study of topological and metric spaces. The basic operations with sets are introduced in Chapter I, relations and mappings are discussed, and an introduction to infinite and uncountable sets is given. Chapter 2 introduces the basic topological structure of the real numbers in a review of basic analysis. In Chapter 3, general topological and metric spaces are introduced and such topics as compactness, separation and continuous functions are discussed. Metric spaces are pursued further in Chapter 4, with discussions of local connectivity, countability, metrizability and completion being included. The second part is less elementary in character. The long Chapter 5 is concerned with giving topological characterizations of arcs, simple closed curves, and simple closed surfaces. Peano spaces are discussed and the Jordan curve theorem and Jordan-Schoenflies theorem are proved. Chapter 6 discusses partitionable spaces, a topic often missing from modern texts. Finally, Chapter 7 discusses the axiom of choice, Zorn's lemma (in the form commonly called the Hausdorff niaximality principle) and the Tychonoff product theorem. The book in particular will help students understand the deep connection between general topology and real and complex analysis. The most natural path towards understanding abstract topological spaces, general continuous mappings and topological invariants on families of open sets is to see how they directly generalize the usual structures of analysis on the real line. Also. Blue Collar Scholar founder/editor Karo Maestro has added his usual personal touch to the new edition, with a new preface on his own reflections on point set topology and recommendations for supplementary or subsequent study. The prerequisites for the text are very minimal-just calculus and some experience with rigorous proofs. This wonderful lost text in this new inexpensive edition will serve a new generation of mathematics students who need to learn this crucial foundational subject with a presentation that's both detailed and informative without being exhaustive. It will indoctrinate students into the beauty and simplicity of point-set topology and convince them of its' intrinsic importance-primarily to analysis, but also to other areas of mathematics.

Download or read book Topology written by Tai-Danae Bradley and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A graduate-level textbook that presents basic topology from the perspective of category theory. This graduate-level textbook on topology takes a unique approach: it reintroduces basic, point-set topology from a more modern, categorical perspective. Many graduate students are familiar with the ideas of point-set topology and they are ready to learn something new about them. Teaching the subject using category theory--a contemporary branch of mathematics that provides a way to represent abstract concepts--both deepens students' understanding of elementary topology and lays a solid foundation for future work in advanced topics.
Book Synopsis Lecture Notes on Elementary Topology and Geometry by : I.M. Singer
Download or read book Lecture Notes on Elementary Topology and Geometry written by I.M. Singer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-28 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the present time, the average undergraduate mathematics major finds mathematics heavily compartmentalized. After the calculus, he takes a course in analysis and a course in algebra. Depending upon his interests (or those of his department), he takes courses in special topics. Ifhe is exposed to topology, it is usually straightforward point set topology; if he is exposed to geom etry, it is usually classical differential geometry. The exciting revelations that there is some unity in mathematics, that fields overlap, that techniques of one field have applications in another, are denied the undergraduate. He must wait until he is well into graduate work to see interconnections, presumably because earlier he doesn't know enough. These notes are an attempt to break up this compartmentalization, at least in topology-geometry. What the student has learned in algebra and advanced calculus are used to prove some fairly deep results relating geometry, topol ogy, and group theory. (De Rham's theorem, the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for surfaces, the functorial relation of fundamental group to covering space, and surfaces of constant curvature as homogeneous spaces are the most note worthy examples.) In the first two chapters the bare essentials of elementary point set topology are set forth with some hint ofthe subject's application to functional analysis.

Book Synopsis Elementary Topology by : Michael C. Gemignani
Download or read book Elementary Topology written by Michael C. Gemignani and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topology is one of the most rapidly expanding areas of mathematical thought: while its roots are in geometry and analysis, topology now serves as a powerful tool in almost every sphere of mathematical study. This book is intended as a first text in topology, accessible to readers with at least three semesters of a calculus and analytic geometry sequence. In addition to superb coverage of the fundamentals of metric spaces, topologies, convergence, compactness, connectedness, homotopy theory, and other essentials, Elementary Topology gives added perspective as the author demonstrates how abstract topological notions developed from classical mathematics. For this second edition, numerous exercises have been added as well as a section dealing with paracompactness and complete regularity. The Appendix on infinite products has been extended to include the general Tychonoff theorem; a proof of the Tychonoff theorem which does not depend on the theory of convergence has also been added in Chapter 7.
Download or read book Topology Now! written by Robert Messer and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topology is a branch of mathematics packed with intriguing concepts, fascinating geometrical objects, and ingenious methods for studying them. The authors have written this textbook to make the material accessible to undergraduate students without requiring extensive prerequisites in upper-level mathematics. The approach is to cultivate the intuitive ideas of continuity, convergence, and connectedness so students can quickly delve into knot theory, the topology of surfaces and three-dimensional manifolds, fixed points and elementary homotopy theory. The fundamental concepts of point-set topology appear at the end of the book when students can see how this level of abstraction provides a sound logical basis for the geometrical ideas that have come before. This organization exposes students to the exciting world of topology now(!) rather than later. Students using this textbook should have some exposure to the geometry of objects in higher-dimensional Euclidean spaces together with an appreciation of precise mathematical definitions and proofs.

Book Synopsis Topological Spaces by : Gerard Buskes
Download or read book Topological Spaces written by Gerard Buskes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: gentle introduction to the subject, leading the reader to understand the notion of what is important in topology with regard to geometry. Divided into three sections - The line and the plane, Metric spaces and Topological spaces -, the book eases the move into higher levels of abstraction. Students are thereby informally assisted in learning new ideas while remaining on familiar territory. The authors do not assume previous knowledge of axiomatic approach or set theory. Similarly, they have restricted the mathematical vocabulary in the book so as to avoid overwhelming the reader, and the concept of convergence is employed to allow students to focus on a central theme while moving to a natural understanding of the notion of topology. The pace of the book is relaxed with gradual acceleration: the first nine sections form a balanced course in metric spaces for undergraduates while also containing ample material for a two-semester graduate course. Finally, the book illustrates the many connections between topology and other subjects, such as analysis and set theory, via the inclusion of "Extras" at the end of each chapter presenting a brief foray outside topology.

Book Synopsis Algebraic Topology by : Tammo tom Dieck
Download or read book Algebraic Topology written by Tammo tom Dieck and published by European Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2008 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written as a textbook on algebraic topology. The first part covers the material for two introductory courses about homotopy and homology. The second part presents more advanced applications and concepts (duality, characteristic classes, homotopy groups of spheres, bordism). The author recommends starting an introductory course with homotopy theory. For this purpose, classical results are presented with new elementary proofs. Alternatively, one could start more traditionally with singular and axiomatic homology. Additional chapters are devoted to the geometry of manifolds, cell complexes and fibre bundles. A special feature is the rich supply of nearly 500 exercises and problems. Several sections include topics which have not appeared before in textbooks as well as simplified proofs for some important results. Prerequisites are standard point set topology (as recalled in the first chapter), elementary algebraic notions (modules, tensor product), and some terminology from category theory. The aim of the book is to introduce advanced undergraduate and graduate (master's) students to basic tools, concepts and results of algebraic topology. Sufficient background material from geometry and algebra is included.
