Course description and aims
The aim of this lecture course is to familiarize students with the basic language of, and some fundamental theorems in differential topology. This course will be succeeded by [ZUA.B334 : Advanced courses in Geometry D].
Student learning outcomes
As an outcome, students are expected to
・understand the notions of homotopy group, cobordism ring, the degree of a map etc.
・be familiar with the classification of surfaces, the method of smooth approximation, general position arguments, the chain complex for the homology group of a CW complex etc.
Keywords
vector field, rotation, genus, homotopy group, degree, immersion, cobordism, transversality
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
