Section 6: Manifolds There are lots of different topological spaces
... There are lots of different topological spaces, some of which are very strange, counter-intuitive, and pathological, but also interesting. Some topological spaces, on the other hand, are in some sense very “nice and intuitive.” We are going to focus our studies on the latter kind: manifolds. These a ...

Solutions to Midterm 2 Problem 1. Let X be Hausdorff and A ⊂ X
... Thus, A is also closed in X. (2) It suffices to prove that, given a closed set A ⊂ X and a function f : A → I, it admits a continuous extension g to X. Construct g by induction, using Tietze’s extension theorem. Let g1 : X1 → I be an extension of f |A∩X1 to X1 . Assuming that gn−1 : Xn−1 → I such th ...

Covering space
In mathematics, more specifically algebraic topology, a covering map (also covering projection) is a continuous function p from a topological space, C, to a topological space, X, such that each point in X has an open neighbourhood evenly covered by p (as shown in the image); the precise definition is given below. In this case, C is called a covering space and X the base space of the covering projection. The definition implies that every covering map is a local homeomorphism.Covering spaces play an important role in homotopy theory, harmonic analysis, Riemannian geometry and differential topology. In Riemannian geometry for example, ramification is a generalization of the notion of covering maps. Covering spaces are also deeply intertwined with the study of homotopy groups and, in particular, the fundamental group. An important application comes from the result that, if X is a ""sufficiently good"" topological space, there is a bijection between the collection of all isomorphism classes of connected coverings of X and the conjugacy classes of subgroups of the fundamental group of X.
