MATH - 4373 Topology (3)

Topology is a branch of mathematics that considers properties of geometric objects, in two, three, or more dimensions that are unaffected by continuous deformation. This course offers an introduction to topology, covering its interesting aspects without too much mathematical formality. Topics covered include knot theory, theory of surfaces and mainfolds, continuous functions and deformations, as well as point-set topology. Equivalent to MATH-531. Prerequisite: MATH-2292 and MATH-4337.
