Summary on Grant Application Form |
Geometric objects are notoriously slippery' and hard to recognize. Algebraic topology studies them by associating rigid algebraic invariants to them. The archetype of this is that an orientable surface is classified by a single number, its genus. For instance. the surface of the earth is a sphere and has genus 0, an inner tube is a torus and has genus 1. Even when one has such a classification, it need not be obvious how to place a surface in it. For example, the set of complex solutions of y^
