This self-contained therapy of algebraic topology assumes just some wisdom of genuine numbers and genuine research. the 1st 3 chapters specialise in the fundamentals of point-set topology, providing history to scholars coming near near the topic with out earlier wisdom. Readers already acquainted with point-set topology can continue on to bankruptcy four, which examines the elemental workforce in addition to homology teams and non-stop mapping, barycentric subdivision and excision, the homology series, and simplicial complexes.
Exercises shape an essential component of the textual content; they comprise theorems which are as worthy as a few of these whose proofs are given in complete. writer Andrew H. Wallace, Professor Emeritus on the collage of Pennsylvania, concludes the textual content with a advisor to extra reading.
