= Differential structures
{wiki=Category:Differential_structures}
Differential structures refer to the mathematical frameworks that allow us to study and analyze the properties of smooth manifolds using the tools of differential calculus. A smooth manifold is a topological space that locally resembles Euclidean space and has a differential structure that enables the definition of concepts such as smooth functions, differentiability, and tangent spaces. Here are some key aspects of differential structures: 1. **Manifolds**: A manifold is a topological space that is locally homeomorphic to Euclidean space.
