Topology

COSAM Departments Mathematics & Statistics Research Research Fields Topology



Topology is the study of topological spaces. It is an area of mathematics concerned with the properties of space that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching and bending, but not tearing or gluing. Important topological properties include connectedness and compactness. Topology developed as a field of study out of geometry and set theory, through analysis of such concepts as space, dimension, and transformation.

Research in topology at Auburn University includes the fields of algebraic topology, continuum theory, and set-theoretic topology.
