Description for Intuitive Combinatorial Topology (Universitext)
Hardcover. Topology is an important branch of mathematics, which studies the properties of objects that are preserved through deformations, twistings, and stretchings. This book deals with the topology of curves and surfaces as well as with the fundamental concepts of homotopy and homology. Translator(s): Shenitzer, A. Series: Universitext. Num Pages: 154 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBPD. Category: (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 11. Weight in Grams: 400.
Topology is a relatively young and very important branch of mathematics, which studies the properties of objects that are preserved through deformations, twistings, and stretchings. This book deals with the topology of curves and surfaces as well as with the fundamental concepts of homotopy and homology, and does this in a lively and well-motivated way. This book is well suited for readers who are interested in finding out what topology is all about.
