Half-disk topology 1970-01-01
Half-disk topology is a type of network topology that is used in certain wireless communication systems. It is characterized by a circular or semi-circular arrangement where devices (nodes) are positioned within a half-disk area, facilitating communication among them. In a half-disk topology, the nodes that are placed within the half-disk can communicate directly with one another if they are within range.
Hedgehog space 1970-01-01
"Hedgehog space" is a term that can refer to a couple of different concepts depending on the context, such as mathematics, gaming, or other fields. However, one of the most common references is in topology, particularly in the study of spaces related to the "hedgehog" model in algebraic topology or differential topology.
Heine–Borel theorem 1970-01-01
The Heine–Borel theorem is a fundamental result in real analysis and topology that characterizes compact subsets of Euclidean space. The theorem states that in \(\mathbb{R}^n\), a subset is compact if and only if it is closed and bounded. To elaborate: 1. **Compact Set**: A set \( K \) is compact if every open cover of \( K \) has a finite subcover.

Interlocking interval topology 1970-01-01
Interlocking interval topology is a concept in the field of topology, specifically dealing with spaces constructed using intervals that have a particular relationship with one another. Here's a basic overview of the concept: ### Definitions: 1. **Intervals:** In a typical setting (especially in \(\mathbb{R}\)), intervals can be open, closed, or half-open.
Irreducible component 1970-01-01
In algebraic geometry, an **irreducible component** of a topological space, particularly a scheme or algebraic variety, is a maximal irreducible subset of that space. To elaborate: 1. **Irreducibility**: A topological space is considered irreducible if it cannot be expressed as the union of two or more nonempty closed subsets.
Isolated point 1970-01-01
In topology and mathematical analysis, an **isolated point** (or isolated point of a set) is a point that is a member of a set but does not have other points of the set arbitrarily close to it.
Katětov–Tong insertion theorem 1970-01-01
The Katětov–Tong insertion theorem is a result in the field of topology, particularly in the area of set-theoretic topology. It deals with the properties of certain types of topological spaces, specifically separable metric spaces. The theorem is named after mathematicians František Katětov and David Tong.
Kuratowski–Ulam theorem 1970-01-01
The Kuratowski–Ulam theorem is a result in the field of topology, specifically within the area of set-theoretic topology. It was conceived by mathematicians Kazimierz Kuratowski and Stanislaw Ulam.
Lexicographic order topology on the unit square 1970-01-01
The lexicographic order topology on the unit square, which we denote as \( [0, 1] \times [0, 1] \), is based on an ordering of the points in the unit square. In this topology, we define a way to compare points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) in the square using the lexicographic order, similar to how words are ordered in a dictionary.
Lindelöf space 1970-01-01
A **Lindelöf space** is a concept from topology, a branch of mathematics that deals with the properties of space that are preserved under continuous transformations. Specifically, a topological space is termed **Lindelöf** if every open cover of the space has a countable subcover.
List of examples in general topology 1970-01-01
In general topology, various examples illustrate different concepts and properties. Here is a list of significant examples that are commonly discussed: 1. **Discrete Topology**: In this topology, every subset is open. For any set \(X\), the discrete topology on \(X\) consists of all possible subsets of \(X\).
List of general topology topics 1970-01-01
General topology, also known as point-set topology, is a branch of topology dealing with the basic set-theoretic definitions and constructions used in topology. Here’s a list of key topics typically covered in a general topology course: 1. **Topological Spaces** - Definition of topological spaces - Basis for a topology - Subspace topology - Product topology - Quotient topology 2.
Local property 1970-01-01
The term "local property" can refer to different concepts depending on the context in which it is used. Here are a few interpretations of "local property": 1. **Real Estate Context**: In real estate, local property may refer to real estate assets that are situated in a specific geographic area. This can involve considerations like property value, market trends, zoning laws, and community characteristics that pertain to that specific locality.
Locally closed subset 1970-01-01
In topology, a subset \( A \) of a topological space \( X \) is called **locally closed** if it can be expressed as the intersection of an open set and a closed set in \( X \). More formally, a subset \( A \subseteq X \) is locally closed if there exists an open set \( U \subseteq X \) and a closed set \( C \subseteq X \) such that: \[ A = U \cap C.
Locally connected space 1970-01-01
In topology, a space is said to be **locally connected** at a point if every neighborhood of that point contains a connected neighborhood of that point. More formally, a topological space \(X\) is said to be **locally connected** if for every point \(x \in X\) and every neighborhood \(U\) of \(x\), there exists a connected neighborhood \(V\) of \(x\) such that \(V \subseteq U\).
Locally finite space 1970-01-01
In topology, a **locally finite space** is a type of topological space that possesses a specific property related to the concept of local finiteness of open covers.
Mapping torus 1970-01-01
A **mapping torus** is a concept in topology, specifically in the study of fiber bundles and manifolds. It is a way to construct a new topological space from a given manifold and a continuous function defined on it. To describe a mapping torus formally, consider the following: 1. **Space**: Let \( M \) be a topological space (often a manifold) and let \( f: M \to M \) be a continuous map.
