Vassiliev, here presented in English translation, first presented this material in a 1996 lecture course at Independent Moscow U. The central topic of the classical notions and methods of differential and algebraic topology are distilled into a pithy volume for researchers, specialists, and advanced students in mathematics and theoretical physics. The volume includes treatment of manifolds, cell spaces, coverings and fibrations, homotopy groups, homology and cohomology, intersection index, Morse theory, and PoincarT duality. Annotation c.

Paperback. Condition: New. This English translation of a Russian book presents the basic notions of differential and algebraic topology, which are indispensable for specialists and useful for research mathematicians and theoretical physicists. In particular, ideas and results are introduced related to manifolds, cell spaces, coverings and fibrations, homotopy groups, intersection index, etc. The author notes, 'The lecture note origins of the book left a significant imprint on its style. It contains very few detailed proofs: I tried to give as many illustrations as possible and to show what really occurs in topology, not always explaining why it occurs'. He concludes, 'As a rule, only those proofs (or sketches of proofs) that are interesting per se and have important generalizations are presented'. Seller Inventory # LU-9780821821626
