61. Chapter 5: Topology
    Common physical topologies for computer networks are introduced. The advantages and disadvantages of the linear bus, star, starwired ring, and tree topologies are discussed  
    http://www.fcit.usf.edu/network/chap5/chap5.htm
    
    Extractions: The physical topology of a network refers to the configuration of cables, computers, and other peripherals. Physical topology should not be confused with logical topology which is the method used to pass information between workstations. Logical topology was discussed in the Protocol chapter . The following sections discuss the physical topologies used in networks and other related topics. A linear bus topology consists of a main run of cable with a terminator at each end (See fig. 1). All nodes (file server, workstations, and peripherals) are connected to the linear cable.

Matt Brin has written some notes on Seifert-fibered 3-manifolds I have written some notes (just under 100 pages) on foliations of 3-manifolds. They can be downloaded either as a (400K) Dvi file or as a (640K) Postscript file. Unfortunately, these files do not contain the figures, which can make them very hard to read, especially towards the end. Write and I'll send you the firgures. I am in the process of putting together a WWW page on the Poincare conjecture , based on a talk I gave at NMSU on the subject. You can go take a look at what I've put into it so far. One of these days I'll finish it! Tsuyoshi Kobayashi has posted his notes from the talks at the 1997 Georgia Topology Conference, as jpeg files.

63. What Is Topology?
    An introductory essay by Neil Strickland, University of Sheffield.  
    http://xtsunxet.usc.es/oubina/Wurble.htm
    
    Extractions: Topologists are mathematicians who study qualitative questions about geometrical structures. We do not ask: how big is it? but rather: does it have any holes in it? is it all connected together, or can it be separated into parts? A commonly cited example is the London Underground map. This will not reliably tell you how far it is from Kings Cross to Picadilly, or even the compass direction from one to the other; but it will tell you how the lines connect up between them. In other words, it gives topological rather than geometric information. Again, consider a doughnut and a teacup, both made of BluTack. We can take one of these and transform it into the other by stretching and squeezing, without tearing the BluTack or sticking together bits which were previously separate. It follows that there is no topological difference between the two objects. Consider the problem of building a fusion reactor which confines a plasma by a magnetic field. Neil Strickland

I'm a topologist, in other words I am interested in fundamental properties of spaces, though recently my interests have spread to include group theory, singularity theory and cosmology. I've been a member of the Mathematics Institute of the University of Warwick since 1968. Before that I was at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study and Queen Mary College, London. I've also worked at Madison, Wisconsin and, for several years, at the Open University, where I helped rewrite the mathematics course. A good deal of my work has been in collaboration with Brian Sanderson who has been at Warwick since its foundation in 1966 which is when we started collaborating. I've also collaborated a good deal with Roger Fenn and the three of us have an longstanding project to understand knots and links in codimension 2 using racks. My students include David Stone, who is now at Brooklyn College, New York; Sandro Buoncristiano who is now at Rome; Jenny Harrison now at Berkeley, California; Hamish Short who is at Marseille, France; Daryl Cooper at Santa Barbara, California; Gena Cesar de Sa and Eduardo Rego both at Oporto, Portugal; Sofia Lambropoulou at Athens, Greece; and Bert Wiest at Rennes, France.

Topology builds on set theory, considering both sets of points and families of sets. The word topology is used both for the area of study, and for a family of sets with certain properties described below. Of particular importance in the study of topology are functions or maps that are continuous. These functions stretch space without tearing it apart or sticking distinct parts together.

71. 54: General Topology
    Introduction. topology is the study of sets on which one has a notion of closeness enough to decide which functions defined on it are continuous.  
    http://www.math.niu.edu/~rusin/known-math/index/54-XX.html
    
    Extractions: POINTERS: Texts Software Web links Selected topics here More formally, a topological space is a set X on which we have a topology a collection of subsets of X which we call the "open" subsets of X. The only requirements are that both X itself and the empty subset must be among the open sets, that all unions of open sets are open, and that the intersection of two open sets be open. This definition is arranged to meet the intent of the opening paragraph. However, stated in this generality, topological spaces can be quite bizarre; for example, in most other disciplines of mathematics, the only topologies on finite sets are the discrete topologies (all subsets are open), but the definition permits many others. Thus a general theme in topology is to test the extent to which the axioms force the kind of structure one expects to use and then, as appropriate, introduce other axioms so as to better match the intended application. For example, a single point need not be a closed set in a topology. Does this seem "inappropriate"? Then perhaps you are envisioning a special kind of topological space, say a a metric space. This alone still need not imply the space looks enough like the shapes you may have seen in a textbook; if you really prefer to understand those shapes, you need to add the axioms of a manifold, perhaps. Many such levels of generality are possible.

72. The Kenzo Program.
    A computer program for computational algebraic topology.  
    http://www-fourier.ujf-grenoble.fr/~sergerar/Kenzo/
    
    Extractions: The Kenzo program is the last version (16000 Lisp lines, July 1998) of the CAT (= Constructive Algebraic Topology) computer program. Kenzo is also the name of my beloved cat . The Kenzo program is a joint work with Xavier Dousson. The previous version EAT (May 1990) was a joint work with Julio Rubio.The Kenzo documentation was entirely written by Yvon Siret. An updated version (1-1-7, October 11, 2008) of the program works with: The Kenzo program is significantly more powerful than EAT, from several points of view. On one hand, for the computations which could be done with the EAT program, the computing times are divided by a factor generally between 10 and 100. The reasons are multiple and it is not obvious to decide what the most important are. Some are strictly technical; for example the numerous multi-degeneracy operators are now coded with a unique integer, using an amusing binary trick: various tests show much progress has been obtained in this way. Other reasons are strictly mathematical; for example another choice for the Eilenberg-Zilber homotopy operator leads in the Kenzo program to Szczarba's universal twisting cochain; in the EAT program we used Shih's universal twisting cochain;
