topology (point-set topology, point-free topology)
see also differential topology, algebraic topology, functional analysis and topological homotopy theory
Basic concepts
fiber space, space attachment
Extra stuff, structure, properties
Kolmogorov space, Hausdorff space, regular space, normal space
sequentially compact, countably compact, locally compact, sigma-compact, paracompact, countably paracompact, strongly compact
Examples
Basic statements
closed subspaces of compact Hausdorff spaces are equivalently compact subspaces
open subspaces of compact Hausdorff spaces are locally compact
compact spaces equivalently have converging subnet of every net
continuous metric space valued function on compact metric space is uniformly continuous
paracompact Hausdorff spaces equivalently admit subordinate partitions of unity
injective proper maps to locally compact spaces are equivalently the closed embeddings
locally compact and second-countable spaces are sigma-compact
Theorems
Analysis Theorems
Given a topological space , the open subspaces of form a poset which is in fact a frame. This is the frame of open subspaces of . When thought of as a locale, this is the topological locale . When thought of as a category, this is the category of open subsets of .
Similarly, given a locale , the open subspaces of form a poset which is in fact a frame. This is the frame of open subspaces of . When thought of as a locale, this is simply all over again. When thought of as a category, this is a site whose topos of sheaves is a localic topos.
The frame of open subsets of the point is given by the power set of a singleton, or more generally by the object of truth values of the ambient topos.
