= Algebraic topology (object)
{wiki=Algebraic_topology_(object)}
Algebraic topology is a branch of mathematics that studies topological spaces with the help of algebraic methods. The primary goal of algebraic topology is to gain insights into the properties of topological spaces that are invariant under continuous deformations, such as stretching and bending, but not tearing or gluing. At its core, algebraic topology involves associating algebraic structures, such as groups, rings, or modules, to topological spaces.
