  2. Direct limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_limit

    The weak topology of a CW complex is defined as a direct limit. Let X {\displaystyle X} be any directed set with a greatest element m {\displaystyle m} . The direct limit of any corresponding direct system is isomorphic to X m {\displaystyle X_{m}} and the canonical morphism ϕ m : X m → X {\displaystyle \phi _{m}:X_{m}\rightarrow X} is an ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower_limit_topology

    The Sorgenfrey line can thus be used to study right-sided limits: if : is a function, then the ordinary right-sided limit of at (when the codomain carries the standard topology) is the same as the usual limit of at when the domain is equipped with the lower limit topology and the codomain carries the standard topology.

  4. Homotopy colimit and limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homotopy_colimit_and_limit

    The homotopy limit is defined by altering this situation: it is the right adjoint to Δ : S p a c e s → S p a c e s I {\displaystyle \Delta :Spaces\to Spaces^{I}} which sends a space X to the I -diagram which at some object i gives

    Absolutely closed See H-closed Accessible See . Accumulation point See limit point. Alexandrov topology The topology of a space X is an Alexandrov topology (or is finitely generated) if arbitrary intersections of open sets in X are open, or equivalently, if arbitrary unions of closed sets are closed, or, again equivalently, if the open sets are the upper sets of a poset.

  6. Topological space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_space

    In mathematics, a topological space is, roughly speaking, a geometrical space in which closeness is defined but cannot necessarily be measured by a numeric distance.More specifically, a topological space is a set whose elements are called points, along with an additional structure called a topology, which can be defined as a set of neighbourhoods for each point that satisfy some axioms ...

  7. Topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topology

    A three-dimensional model of a figure-eight knot.The figure-eight knot is a prime knot and has an Alexander–Briggs notation of 4 1.. Topology (from the Greek words τόπος, 'place, location', and λόγος, 'study') is the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties of a geometric object that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching, twisting, crumpling ...

  8. Net (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_(mathematics)

    Similarly, every limit of a sequence and limit of a function can be interpreted as a limit of a net. Specifically, the net is eventually in a subset S {\displaystyle S} of X {\displaystyle X} if there exists an N ∈ N {\displaystyle N\in \mathbb {N} } such that for every integer n ≥ N , {\displaystyle n\geq N,} the point a n {\displaystyle a ...

  9. Limit of a sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_sequence

    A limit of a sequence of points () in a topological space is a special case of a limit of a function: the domain is in the space {+}, with the induced topology of the affinely extended real number system, the range is , and the function argument tends to +, which in this space is a limit point of .
