  Connectedness - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For example, a path connected topological space is simply connected if each loop (path from a point to itself) in it is contractible; that is, intuitively, if there is essentially only one way to get from any point to any other point.
For example, in graph theory, a connected graph is one from which we must remove at least one vertex to create a disconnected graph.
The connectivity of a graph is the minimum number of vertices that must be removed, to disconnect it.

 Universal Path Spaces   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The latter hypothesis that each point in the base space has a relatively simply connected open neighborhood---necessary and sufficient for the existence of a simply connected covering space---is abandoned, thus admitting as base even those spaces that contain arbitrarily small essential loops at wild points.
When the base space is a wild metric 2-complex, the universal path space is simply connected if and only if the fundamental group is an omega-group--a group whose elements acquire non-negative real weights and form countable products of all order-type whenever their weights vanish as their appearance in the order-type deepens.
The standard features of covering space theory are thus engulfed by the richer features of universal path space theory for a variety of base spaces whose wild local topology prevents the application of traditional covering space theory.
