One-or two-semester coverage—Provides separate, distinct sections on general topology and algebraic topology. Among Munkres' contributions to mathematics is the development of what is sometimes called the Munkres assignment algorithm. A significant contribution in topology is his obstruction theory for the smoothing of homeomorphisms. [3] [4] These developments establish a connection between the John Milnor groups of differentiable structures on spheres and the smoothing methods of classical analysis. Greatly expanded, full-semester coverage of algebraic topology—Extensive treatment of the fundamental group and covering spaces. What follows is a wealth of applications—to the topology of the plane (including the Jordan curve theorem), to the classification of compact surfaces, and to the classification of covering spaces. A final chapter provides an application to group theory itself. He was elected to the 2018 class of fellows of the American Mathematical Society. [5] Textbooks [ edit ] I'm currently studying Algebraic Topology and Differential Topology (and Differential Geometry) on my own, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it, but currently it seems that Algebraic Topology and Differential Topology, don't use that much General Topology apart from Compactness, Connectedness and the basics. I've yet to see (in my limited knowledge of Alg and Diff Topology) any real use of things like Separation Axioms and deeper theory from General Topology.

Obstructions to the smoothing of piecewise-differentiable homeomorphisms, Ann. of Math., vol. 72 (1960) The study of 1- and 2-manifolds is arguably complete – as an exercise, you can probably easily list all 1-manifolds without much prior knowledge, and inexplicably, much about manifolds of dimension greater than 4 is known. However, for a long time, many aspects of 3- and 4-manifolds had evaded study; thus developed the subfield of low-dimensional topology, the study of manifolds of dimension 4 or below. This is an active area of research, and in recent years has been found to be closely related to quantum field theory in physics. Topology, in broad terms, is the study of those qualities of an object that are invariant under certain deformations. Such deformations include stretching but not tearing or gluing; in laymen’s terms, one is allowed to play with a sheet of paper without poking holes in it or joining two separate parts together. (A popular joke is that for topologists, a doughnut and a coffee mug are the same thing, because one can be continuously transformed into the other.)After making my way through Dover's excellent Algebraic Topology and Combinatorial Topology (sadly out of print), I was recommended this on account of its 'clean, accessible' (1) layout, and its wise choice of 'not completely dedicating itself to the Jordan (curve) theorem'. (2) Overrated and outdated. Truth be told, this is more of an advanced analysis book than a Topology book, since that subject began with Poincare's Analysis Situs (which introduced (in a sense) and dealt with the two functors: homology and homotopy). Unless one is (and you are not!) planning to write a PhD thesis in General Topology, Munkres is (more than) enough.

If I want to broaden my knowledge of General Topology, what book do I go to next after Munkres? Should I learn some Pointfree Topology (Frame Theory)?. Also I should mention that I don't want to specialize in General Topology. I think this is one the best undergrad math books I've worked with; very concise, elegant proofs, nice problems, etc...Deepen students' understanding of concepts and theorems just presented rather than simply test comprehension. The supplementary exercises can be used by students as a foundation for an independent research project or paper. Ex.___

I found it to be an even better approach to the subject than the Dover books. That said, they're all highly recommended. However, one new(er) to the concepts of algebraic and general topology will probably find this book to be more accessible, even if the algebraic treatment is too light to properly slake the gullet of a more seasoned topologist.

Each of the text's two parts is suitable for a one-semester course, giving instructors a convenient single text resource for bridging between the courses. The text can also be used where algebraic topology is studied only briefly at the end of a single-semester course. Ex.___ While I certainly have a lot more Differential Topology and Algebraic Topology to learn (and I look forward to it), I also feel like I should learn a bit more of General Topology. The reason I've given this long explanation (because I hope it will also help others studying Topology who have similarities), is because the path most Topology students follow is the following
