Final topology

Index Final topology

In general topology and related areas of mathematics, the final topology (or strong, colimit, coinduced, or inductive topology) on a set X, with respect to a family of functions into X, is the finest topology on X which makes those functions continuous. [1]

Adjoint functors

In mathematics, specifically category theory, adjunction is a possible relationship between two functors.

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.

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).

Coherent topology

In topology, a coherent topology is a topology that is uniquely determined by a family of subspaces.

Comma category

In mathematics, a comma category (a special case being a slice category) is a construction in category theory.

Comparison of topologies

In topology and related areas of mathematics, the set of all possible topologies on a given set forms a partially ordered set.

Cone (category theory)

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, the cone of a functor is an abstract notion used to define the limit of that functor.

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.

Diagonal functor

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, the diagonal functor \mathcal \rightarrow \mathcal \times \mathcal is given by \Delta(a).

Direct limit

In mathematics, a direct limit is a way to construct a (typically large) object from many (typically smaller) objects that are put together in a specific way.

Discrete category

In mathematics, in the field of category theory, a discrete category is a category whose only morphisms are the identity morphisms: Since by axioms, there is always the identity morphism between the same object, we can express the above as condition on the cardinality of the hom-set Some authors prefer a weaker notion, where a discrete category merely needs to be equivalent to such a category.

Disjoint union (topology)

In general topology and related areas of mathematics, the disjoint union (also called the direct sum, free union, free sum, topological sum, or coproduct) of a family of topological spaces is a space formed by equipping the disjoint union of the underlying sets with a natural topology called the disjoint union topology.

Family of sets

In set theory and related branches of mathematics, a collection F of subsets of a given set S is called a family of subsets of S, or a family of sets over S. More generally, a collection of any sets whatsoever is called a family of sets.

Forgetful functor

In mathematics, in the area of category theory, a forgetful functor (also known as a stripping functor) 'forgets' or drops some or all of the input's structure or properties 'before' mapping to the output.

Functor

In mathematics, a functor is a map between categories.

Functor category

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, the functors between two given categories form a category, where the objects are the functors and the morphisms are natural transformations between the functors.

General topology

In mathematics, general topology is the branch of topology that deals with the basic set-theoretic definitions and constructions used in topology.

If and only if

In logic and related fields such as mathematics and philosophy, if and only if (shortened iff) is a biconditional logical connective between statements.

Inclusion map

In mathematics, if A is a subset of B, then the inclusion map (also inclusion function, insertion, or canonical injection) is the function \iota that sends each element, x, of A to x, treated as an element of B: A "hooked arrow" is sometimes used in place of the function arrow above to denote an inclusion map; thus: \iota: A\hookrightarrow B. (On the other hand, this notation is sometimes reserved for embeddings.) This and other analogous injective functions from substructures are sometimes called natural injections.

Induced topology

In topology and related areas of mathematics, an induced topology on a topological space is a topology which makes the inducing function continuous from/to this topological space.

Infimum and supremum

In mathematics, the infimum (abbreviated inf; plural infima) of a subset S of a partially ordered set T is the greatest element in T that is less than or equal to all elements of S, if such an element exists.

Initial topology

In general topology and related areas of mathematics, the initial topology (or weak topology or limit topology or projective topology) on a set X, with respect to a family of functions on X, is the coarsest topology on X that makes those functions continuous.

Intersection (set theory)

In mathematics, the intersection A ∩ B of two sets A and B is the set that contains all elements of A that also belong to B (or equivalently, all elements of B that also belong to A), but no other elements.

Mathematics

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

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.
