Description for Topological Methods in Chemistry
Hardcover. A study has shown that finite topological spaces have a rich combinatorial structure, and much of this book is devoted to developing the mathematical machinery to analyze this structure. The text introduces the mathematics involved and describes applications and the results of recent research. Num Pages: 256 pages, bibliography, index. BIC Classification: PH; PN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 236 x 165 x 24. Weight in Grams: 544.
Introduces a new method and language, based on finite topological spaces, for investigating molecular structure. Eschews the ``theorem-proof-remarks'' format of mathematics in favor of a more readable style commonly used in physical science. Part I develops the mathematical machinery which can serve as an analytical tool to investigate nonmetric aspects of chemical structure. Specific topics covered include set theory, lattices, graph theory, connectivity, classification of spaces, combinatorics, and functions and continuity. Part II explains the application of the above concepts to molecular structure. Chapters cover the bond topology, the graph topology, duplex spaces, and the topology of chemical reactions. Eight ...
