Point-Set Topology

Explore Point-SetTopology on MathWorld


Point-set topology is the study of the general abstract nature of continuity on spaces. Basic point-set topological notions are ones like continuity, dimension, compactness, and connectedness.

Point-set topology is a college-level concept that would be first encountered in a topology course covering point-set topology.

Prerequisites

Topological Space: A topological space is a set with a collection of subsets T that together satisfy a certain set of axioms defining the topology of that set.
