  1. If $f : X \to Y$ is a continuous function between topological spaces ...

    Apr 1, 2026 · Let $f : X \to Y$ be a continuous function between topological spaces, and suppose $ (x_n) \to x$. I am trying to show that $ (f (x_n)) \to f (x)$ using the following, pretty standard …

  2. What exactly is a topological sum? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 6, 2019 · Why is the topological sum a thing worth considering? There are many possible answers, but one of them is that the topological sum is the coproduct in the category of topological spaces and …

  3. What is the difference between topological and metric spaces?

    While in topological spaces the notion of a neighborhood is just an abstract concept which reflects somehow the properties a "neighborhood" should have, a metric space really have some notion of …

  4. meaning of topology and topological space

    Apr 28, 2012 · A topological space is just a set with a topology defined on it. What 'a topology' is is a collection of subsets of your set which you have declared to be 'open'.

  5. real analysis - How to define limit operations in general topological ...

    Mar 17, 2019 · How to define limit operations in general topological spaces? Are nets able to do this? Ask Question Asked 7 years, 1 month ago Modified 7 months ago

  6. real analysis - What is an open set in a topological space ...

    Jan 4, 2021 · Topology is weird at first, but in the abstract setting of topology you define a topology by saying what your open sets are. This makes it nearly impossible to answer your question, because …

  7. Where to start learning about topological data analysis?

    The linked book seems to be about something else, at least if you believe the description. It seems to be about computational aspects of topology, as opposed to using topological methods for data analysis …

  8. Net convergence and relation to topological space

    Feb 12, 2026 · Clearly all cofinal subnets are subnets using the inclusion map, but the converse is false. My query is, if we relax axioms 1-4 above to use cofinal subnets only, what would be the kind of …

  9. Difference between the algebraic and topological dual of a topological ...

    Sep 11, 2016 · For example, the topological dual (the space of all continuous linear functionals) of a Hilbert space is the Hilbert space itself, by the Riesz representation theorem, while the algebraic dual …

  10. Topological Definition of Continuity - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Oct 20, 2016 · I am having some trouble understanding the mechanics of the topological definition of continuity. It has been defined as follows: A function $ f: \\mathbb{R^n} \\to \\mathbb{R^m}$ is …
