  2. Zero-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-dimensional_space

    Zero-dimensional Polish spaces are a particularly convenient setting for descriptive set theory. Examples of such spaces include the Cantor space and Baire space. Hausdorff zero-dimensional spaces are precisely the subspaces of topological powers where = {,} is given the discrete topology.

    Alexander horned sphere − A particular embedding of a sphere into 3-dimensional Euclidean space. Antoine's necklace − A topological embedding of the Cantor set in 3-dimensional Euclidean space, whose complement is not simply connected. Irrational winding of a torus/Irrational cable on a torus; Knot (mathematics) Linear flow on the torus

  4. Literary space - Wikipedia

    The first is where works of art are stored. It is physical, 3-dimensional and, therefore, can be experienced by readers (e.g. libraries). The second type is space only in a metaphorical sense, a set of conventions, of common fields of references for a certain piece of writing.

  5. Symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry

    Examples include beadwork, furniture, sand paintings, knotwork, masks, and musical instruments. Symmetries are central to the art of M.C. Escher and the many applications of tessellation in art and craft forms such as wallpaper , ceramic tilework such as in Islamic geometric decoration , batik , ikat , carpet-making, and many kinds of textile ...

  6. Regular space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_space

    An example of a regular space that is not completely regular is the Tychonoff corkscrew. Most interesting spaces in mathematics that are regular also satisfy some stronger condition. Thus, regular spaces are usually studied to find properties and theorems, such as the ones below, that are actually applied to completely regular spaces, typically ...

  7. Lebesgue covering dimension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebesgue_covering_dimension

    An open cover of a topological space X is a family of open sets U α such that their union is the whole space, U α = X. The order or ply of an open cover A {\displaystyle {\mathfrak {A}}} = { U α } is the smallest number m (if it exists) for which each point of the space belongs to at most m open sets in the cover: in other words U α 1 ∩ ...

  8. Baire space (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baire_space_(set_theory)

    Such a space is called a Baire space of weight and can be denoted as (). [1] With this definition, the Baire spaces of finite weight would correspond to the Cantor space . The first Baire space of infinite weight is then B ( ℵ 0 ) {\displaystyle B(\aleph _{0})} ; it is homeomorphic to ω ω {\displaystyle \omega ^{\omega }} defined above.

  9. Negative space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_space

    The use of negative space is a key element of artistic composition. The Japanese word "ma" is sometimes used for this concept, for example in garden design. [2] [3] [4] In a composition, the positive space has the more visual weight while the surrounding space - that is less visually important is seen as the negative space.
