 [No title]
Technically, if X is a topological space with a fiber bundle F, it is the minimum number of open sets that cover X such that F is trivial over each open set.
The homology of a topological space has a relatively technical definition, but it is relatively easy to compute and study with tools from linear algebra.
loop space Given a topological space X, its loop space is the topological space of all continuous functions from a circle to X. Loop spaces are important examples of new topological spaces formed from old ones, as well as examples of infinite-dimensional spaces in mathematics.

 Dynamic Topological Logic
Dynamic Topological Logic provides a context for studying the confluence of the topological semantics for S4, topological dynamics, and temporal logic.
Topological dynamics studies the asymptotic properties of continuous maps on topological spaces.
Dynamic topological logics are defined for a trimodal language with an S4-ish topological modality □ (interior), and two temporal modalities, ○ (a circle for "next") and * (an asterisk for "henceforth"), both interpreted using the continuous function f.

However, a node may be located within the interior of a face or within the interior of a volume.
It is possible for a node to be in the interior of a face, while also being the endpoint of an edge which does not bound that face, as shown in Figure 1.
Several of the topological relationships defined in the preceding sections depend on the level of topology that is present.

 Topological mapping with sensing-limited robots   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Topological maps represent the connectivity of the environment, usually in a graph structure where vertices are "distinctive places" in the environment and edges represent paths, classes of paths or behavior sequences for traveling between places.
Though not always, many topological maps are augmented with some metric information, such as the lengths of paths (based on the robot's odometry).
Others have employed the basic GVD as a topological map, with meet points in the GVD as nodes in the map, and edges in the GVD as edges in the map.

 Topological condensate concept
One ends up with the concept of the topological condensate from the requirement that both TGD as a Poincare invariant gravity and TGD as generalization of the string model pictures make sense as appropriate limiting cases.
Topological condensate has a hierarchical structure and one can associate a characteristic length scale spesifying the minimum size of the 3-surfaces on each level of the hierarchy.
This picture of topological condensate is consistent with the general properties of the Kähler action.

 Algebraic Topology: Topology
A topological space is a set X together with a collection of subsets OS the members of which are called open, with the property that (i) the union of an arbitrary collection of open sets is open, and (ii) the intersection of a finite collection of open sets is open.
A topological space is called metric when there is a distance function determining the topology (i.e., open balls for the metric are open sets, and conversely, if a point x lies in an open set U then for some positive e the ball with radius e around x is contained in U.
A topological space is said to be locally P for some property P when for each point x and neighbourhood U of x there is a set A contained in U and containing a neighbourhood of x that has property P.

These differences are not important for basic topological properties, so statements and proofs involving H are often identical to those for R. First an open ball of quaternions needs to be defined to set the stage for an open set.
The interior of A is the union of all open sets contained within A. The interior equals A if and only if A is open.

 That Logic Blog: November 2005
Pick your favourite topological space X and let O(X) be the collection of all open sets of X. Then, O(X) is a complete Heyting algebra, with join defined by union and meet almost defined by set intersection.
Now, O(X) directly forms a model of Int by interpreting conjunction as the interior of intersection, disjunction as union, implication as the subset relation and negation as the interior of the relative complement.
This is precisely what we need, since an interior operator uniquely determines a topology of open sets (this is usually stated in terms of the dual notion of a closure operator and holds for a large variety of lattices, not just topological spaces).

 3D Boolean Operations on Nef Polyhedra   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The boolean operations are not evaluated, instead, objects are represented implicitly with a tree structure; leaves represent primitive objects and interior nodes represent boolean operations or rigid motions, e.g., translation and rotation.
Surfaces are oriented to decide between the interior and exterior of a solid.
Set complement changes between open and closed halfspaces, thus the topological operations boundary, interior, exterior, closure and regularization are also in the modeling space of Nef polyhedra.
