characterization of curves that lie on a surface in euclidean space
... i.e. R3 equipped with the standard metric, how can we characterize those (spatial) curves α : I → E 3 that belong to Σ? Despite the simplicity to formulate the problem, a global understanding is only available for a few examples: when Σ is a plane [5], a sphere [5, 6] or a cylinder [4]. The solution ...

... for all i and {Ui } = X. A subcover is a subset of {Ui } whose union still is the whole of X. A finite subcover is a subcover containing a finite number of subsets. A subset of a topological space is said to be a compact subset if it is compact when considered as a topological space in its own right ...

... To obtain a non-orientable 2-manifold without boundary, simply glue the Möbius strip to a disk. This gives us the projective plane P. Alternatively, if we remove a disk from the projective plane, we obtain the Mobius strip. Gluing the Mobius strip to the boundary of a disk is equivalent to gluing ...

Every topological space X can be viewed as a collection of subspaces each of which are connected. These subspaces are called the connected components of X. Slightly more rigorously, w ...
