Category of topological spaces

In mathematics, the category of topological spaces, often denoted Top, is the category whose objects are topological spaces and whose morphisms are continuous maps or some other variant; for example, objects are often assumed to be compactly generated.

Compact space

In mathematics, and more specifically in general topology, compactness is a property that generalizes the notion of a subset of Euclidean space being closed (that is, containing all its limit points) and bounded (that is, having all its points lie within some fixed distance of each other).

Homotopy

In topology, two continuous functions from one topological space to another are called homotopic (from Greek ὁμός homós "same, similar" and τόπος tópos "place") if one can be "continuously deformed" into the other, such a deformation being called a homotopy between the two functions.

Join (topology)

In topology, a field of mathematics, the join of two topological spaces A and B, often denoted by A\ast B or A\star B, is defined to be the quotient space where I is the interval and R is the equivalence relation generated by At the endpoints, this collapses A\times B\times \ to A and A\times B\times \ to B. Intuitively, A\star B is formed by taking the disjoint union of the two spaces and attaching a line segment joining every point in A to every point in B.
