Section Description

The course provides a background for analysis and graduate topology courses as well as for topological data science. Topics include open and closed sets, continuous functions, compactness, connectedness, metric, and separability. The course will introduce some set theory to get the student comfortable with working within a theoretical framework. Prerequisites: MATH 2055; The first part of the course will be spent on defining different topological spaces. The second part will focus on the main properties of topological spaces: connectedness, compactness, and separability.

Section Expectation

Upon completion of MATH 4344 Topology, students will be able to: ○ list and summarize the main properties of topological spaces: continuity, connectedness, separability ○ being able to prove statements independently ○ Give examples and counter examples of properties presented in class

Evaluation

You will be required to submit the homework and present a final project of your choice on an argument relevant to the subject matter.
