  1. topological space

    A topological space is a set equipped with a structure, called a topology, that allows the definition of concepts such as continuity, convergence, and closeness. This structure is a collection of subsets, known as open sets, that satisfy the following properties: 1. The entire set and the empty set are both in the collection. 2. The intersection of a finite number of sets in the collection is also in the collection. 3. The union of any number of sets in the collection is also in the collection. In other words, a topological space is a pair (X, τ), where X is a set and τ is a collection of subsets of X (which are called 'open sets') such that: 1. The empty set and X itself are in τ. 2. Any union of members of τ is also a member of τ. 3. The intersection of any finite number of members of τ is also a member of τ.

  1. Topological space

    In topology and related branches of mathematics, a topological space is a set of points, along with a set of neighbourhoods for each point, that satisfy a set of axioms relating points and neighbourhoods. The definition of a topological space relies only upon set theory and is the most general notion of a mathematical "space" that allows for the definition of concepts such as continuity, connectedness, and convergence. Other spaces, such as manifolds and metric spaces, are specializations of topological spaces with extra structures or constraints. Being so general, topological spaces are a central unifying notion and appear in virtually every branch of modern mathematics. The branch of mathematics that studies topological spaces in their own right is called point-set topology or general topology.
