Course description and aims
The main subject of this course is basic concepts in general topology. First, general topology on sets will be introduced in terms of system of open sets, closed sets, and system of neighborhoods, and then continuity for mapping between topological spaces will be discussed in terms of these notions. Next we explain various natural topology, such as metric topology, relative topology, quotient topology and product topology. Then we discuss various axioms of separability, such as Hausdorff property. Main subjects in the latter half of this course are geometric properties of topological spaces, such as compactness, (path-) connectedness. Compact spaces have distinguished property that any function has maximum and minimum, and one of the fundamental properties of a space. A number of significant examples of compact/ non-compact and connected/disconnected spaces are provided. Also completeness and boundedness of metric spaces are treated. We strongly recommend to take this course with "Exercises in Geometry A".
The notion of topological space is essential for describing continuity of mappings. It is significant not only in geometry but also algebra and analysis. Compactness and connectedness are most significant geometric properties of the space. They will be fundamental when learning more advanced geometry, such as theory of manifolds. Completeness and boundedness of metric spaces are fundamental concepts especially in analysis.
