Topological spaces

Long line (topology)

In topology, the long line (or Alexandroff line) is a topological space somewhat similar to the real line, but in a certain way "longer". It behaves locally just like the real line, but has different large-scale properties (e.g., it is neither Lindelöf nor separable). Therefore, it serves as one of the basic counterexamples of topology. Intuitively, the usual real-number line consists of a countable number of line segments laid end-to-end, whereas the long line is constructed from an uncountable number of such segments.

What is a closed set ?

I define closed sets, an important notion in topology and analysis. It is defined in terms of limit points, and has a priori nothing to do with open sets. Yet I show the important result that a set is closed if and only if its complement is open. More topology videos can be found on my pla

Connectedness

In this video, I define connectedness, which is a very important concept in topology and math in general. Essentially, it means that your space only consists of one piece, whereas disconnected spaces have two or more pieces. I also define the related notion of path-connectedness. Topology

What are parallel lines and a transversal

👉 Learn about converse theorems of parallel lines and a transversal. Two lines are said to be parallel when they have the same slope and are drawn straight to each other such that they cannot meet. In geometry, parallel lines are identified by two arrow heads or two small lines indicated i

constructing parallel lines (rhombus method) - geometry

In this video I show how to construct parallel lines with the rhombus method. The specific question covered involves constructing a line parallel to given line through a given point. This technique is a quick, efficient way to construct parallel lines. I prefer this technique over the oth

WHEN SPACE DOES NOT HAVE DISTANCE: What is the Long Line in Math and Other Examples (Version 2.0)

In many ways metric spaces grant a large amount of structure to a topological space. So it's natural to ask what happens when space does not have distance defined on it. Can we still talk about things like size or even compare these types of spaces to other metrizable spaces? The answer is

What is a Manifold? Lesson 1: Point Set Topology and Topological Spaces

This will begin a short diversion into the subject of manifolds. I will review some point set topology and then discuss topological manifolds. Then I will return to the "What is a Tensor" series. It has been well over a year since we began this project. We now have a Patreon Page: https
