Anant R Shastri

Basic Algebraic Topology

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Thoroughly classroom-tested, this self-contained text provides plenty of material for a two-semester first course in algebraic topology, taking students all the way to becoming algebraic topologists. It covers many important results, concepts, and applications in standard algebraic topology-including topics not typically covered in introductory texts. Historical remarks throughout the text make the subject more meaningful to students. Also suitable for researchers, the book provides references for further reading, presents full proofs of all results, and includes numerous exercises.
