MATH 313 - Topology

Institution:

Bates College

Subject:

Description:

The notion of "closeness" underlies many important mathematical concepts, such as limits and continuity. Topology is the careful study of what this notion means in abstract spaces, leading to a thorough understanding of continuous mappings and the properties of spaces that they preserve. Topics include metric spaces, topological spaces, continuity, compactness, and connectedness. Continued development of good mathematical writing and/or a presentation is a major component of this course. Prerequisite(s): Mathematics 206 and s21. [W2] S. Ross.
