Algebraic topology
Algebraic topology is a branch of mathematics that uses tools from abstract algebra to study topological spaces.

Associative property
In mathematics, the associative property is a property of some binary operations.

Automorphism
In mathematics, an automorphism is an isomorphism from a mathematical object to itself.

Binary operation
In mathematics, a binary operation on a set is a calculation that combines two elements of the set (called operands) to produce another element of the set.

Category (mathematics)
In mathematics, a category (sometimes called an abstract category to distinguish it from a concrete category) is an algebraic structure similar to a group but without requiring inverse or closure properties.
New!!: Path (topology) and Category (mathematics) · See more »
Category theory
Category theory formalizes mathematical structure and its concepts in terms of a labeled directed graph called a category, whose nodes are called objects, and whose labelled directed edges are called arrows (or morphisms).

Connected space
In topology and related branches of mathematics, a connected space is a topological space that cannot be represented as the union of two or more disjoint nonempty open subsets.

Continuous function
In mathematics, a continuous function is a function for which sufficiently small changes in the input result in arbitrarily small changes in the output.

Curve
In mathematics, a curve (also called a curved line in older texts) is, generally speaking, an object similar to a line but that need not be straight.

Endomorphism
In mathematics, an endomorphism is a morphism (or homomorphism) from a mathematical object to itself.
New!!: Path (topology) and Endomorphism · See more »
Equivalence class
In mathematics, when the elements of some set S have a notion of equivalence (formalized as an equivalence relation) defined on them, then one may naturally split the set S into equivalence classes.

Equivalence relation
In mathematics, an equivalence relation is a binary relation that is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
New!!: Path (topology) and Equivalence relation · See more »
Fundamental group
In the mathematical field of algebraic topology, the fundamental group is a mathematical group associated to any given pointed topological space that provides a way to determine when two paths, starting and ending at a fixed base point, can be continuously deformed into each other.

Group (mathematics)
In mathematics, a group is an algebraic structure consisting of a set of elements equipped with an operation that combines any two elements to form a third element and that satisfies four conditions called the group axioms, namely closure, associativity, identity and invertibility.
New!!: Path (topology) and Group (mathematics) · See more »
Groupoid
In mathematics, especially in category theory and homotopy theory, a groupoid (less often Brandt groupoid or virtual group) generalises the notion of group in several equivalent ways.
New!!: Path (topology) and Groupoid · See more »
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.
New!!: Path (topology) and Homotopy · See more »
Isomorphism
In mathematics, an isomorphism (from the Ancient Greek: ἴσος isos "equal", and μορφή morphe "form" or "shape") is a homomorphism or morphism (i.e. a mathematical mapping) that can be reversed by an inverse morphism.

James Munkres
James Raymond Munkres (born August 18, 1930) is a Professor Emeritus of mathematics at MIT and the author of several texts in the area of topology, including Topology (an undergraduate-level text), Analysis on Manifolds, Elements of Algebraic Topology, and Elementary Differential Topology.

Loop space
In topology, a branch of mathematics, the loop space ΩX of a pointed topological space X is the space of (based) loops in X, maps from the circle S1 to X, equipped with the compact-open topology.

Mathematics
Mathematics (from Greek μάθημα máthēma, "knowledge, study, learning") is the study of such topics as quantity, structure, space, and change.

Morphism
In mathematics, a morphism is a structure-preserving map from one mathematical structure to another one of the same type.

Parametrization
Parametrization (or parameterization; also parameterisation, parametrisation) is the process of finding parametric equations of a curve, a surface, or, more generally, a manifold or a variety, defined by an implicit equation.

Path space
In mathematics, the term path space refers to any topological space of paths from one specified set into another.

Pointed space
In mathematics, a pointed space is a topological space with a distinguished point, the basepoint.

Quotient space (topology)
In topology and related areas of mathematics, a quotient space (also called an identification space) is, intuitively speaking, the result of identifying or "gluing together" certain points of a given topological space.

Seifert–van Kampen theorem
In mathematics, the Seifert–van Kampen theorem of algebraic topology (named after Herbert Seifert and Egbert van Kampen), sometimes just called van Kampen's theorem, expresses the structure of the fundamental group of a topological space X in terms of the fundamental groups of two open, path-connected subspaces that cover X. It can therefore be used for computations of the fundamental group of spaces that are constructed out of simpler ones.

Topological space
In topology and related branches of mathematics, a topological space may be defined as a set of points, along with a set of neighbourhoods for each point, satisfying a set of axioms relating points and neighbourhoods.

Unit circle
In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle with a radius of one.

Unit interval
In mathematics, the unit interval is the closed interval, that is, the set of all real numbers that are greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1.
