Trivial topology

In topology, a topological space with the trivial topology is one where the only open sets are the empty set and the entire space. Such spaces are commonly called indiscrete, anti-discrete, concrete or codiscrete. Intuitively, this has the consequence that all points of the space are "lumped together" and cannot be distinguished by topological means. Every indiscrete space is a pseudometric space in which the distance between any two points is zero. (Wikipedia).

Topology 1.7 : More Examples of Topologies

In this video, I introduce important examples of topologies I didn't get the chance to get to. This includes The discrete and trivial topologies, subspace topology, the lower-bound and K topologies on the reals, the dictionary order, and the line with two origins. I also introduce (again)

Algebraic topology: Calculating the fundamental group

This lecture is part of an online course on algebraic topology. We calculate the fundamental group of several spaces, such as a ficure 8, or the complement of a circle in R^3, or the group GL3(R). For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8yHsr3EF

Algebraic topology: Fundamental group

This lecture is part of an online course on algebraic topology. We define the fundamental group, calculate it for some easy examples (vector spaces and spheres), and give a couple of applications (R^2 is not homeomorphic to R^3, the Brouwer fixedpoint theorem). For the other lectures in

Algebraic topology: Introduction

This lecture is part of an online course on algebraic topology. This is an introductory lecture, where we give a quick overview of some of the invariants of algebraic topology (homotopy groups, homology groups, K theory, and cobordism). The book "algebraic topology" by Allen Hatcher men

What is a metric space ?

Metric space definition and examples. Welcome to the beautiful world of topology and analysis! In this video, I present the important concept of a metric space, and give 10 examples. The idea of a metric space is to generalize the concept of absolute values and distances to sets more gener

What is a Manifold? Lesson 12: Fiber Bundles - Formal Description

This is a long lesson, but it is not full of rigorous proofs, it is just a formal definition. Please let me know where the exposition is unclear. I din't quite get through the idea of the structure group of a fiber bundle fully, but I introduced it. The examples in the next lesson will h
