schaums outline of general topology

The book presents surveys describing recent developments in most of the primary subfields of General Topology and its applications to Algebra and Analysis during the last decade. It follows freely the previous edition (North Holland, 1992), Open Problems in Topology (North Holland, 1990) and
Handbook of Set-Theoretic Topology (North Holland, 1984).

This introduction to topology provides separate, in-depth coverage of both general topology and algebraic topology. Includes many examples and figures. GENERAL TOPOLOGY. Set Theory and Logic. Topological Spaces and Continuous Functions. Connectedness and Compactness. Countability and Separation Axioms.

General Topology has experienced rapid growth during the past fifty years, and nowadays its language and concepts pervade much of modern day mathematics. This book is intended for a broad community of scholars and students working in mathematics and other areas who want to become acquainted quickly with the terminology and ideas of General Topology that may be relevant to their work. Thus the book provides a source where the specialist and nonspecialist alike can find short introductions to both the basic theory and the newest developments in General Topology.

This collection is the proceedings of the Fifth Northeast Conference on General Topology and Applications, held June 1517, 1989 at The College of Staten Island-The City University of New York. It is the fourth of these conferences for which proceedings exist, the second such published through Marcel Dekker, Inc. It seems appropriate to reflect on the history and present status of this series of conferences. ...

The present book, as its title indicates, is meant as an introduction to general topology. It is especially written for the average M.A./M.Sc. or the advanced undergraduate student in educational institutions in India. It can also be used by persons from other areas of mathematics or from computer science, physics etc., who want to get a working knowledge of topology. However, it is not meant as a reference book on the subject. It was relatively recently that general topology was introduced in the M.A./ M.Sc. syllabi of most of our educational institutions offering postgraduate degrees in mathematics. There is a growing and as yet unfulfilled demand for a good textbook on this subject catering especially to the needs of the students in this country, despite the fact that there is a large number of books written on this subject. ...
