Title
Algebraic Topology 1.
Credit Hours
3
Prerequisite
Math 313, 342, and Math 553 and 554 or Instructor's consent.
Description
An introduction to manifolds and smooth manifolds.
Desired Learning Outcomes
Prerequisites
Knowledge of basic point topology from Math 553, 554 will be assumed. This includes topological spaces, basis and countability, metric spaces, quotient spaces, fundamental group, and covering maps. We also assume a course in linear algebra (Math 313) and one in introductory analysis (Math 341 and 342).
