Local n-connectivity vs. the LC^n Property, Part 2

In Part 1, I defined local n-connectivity, which says that a space has a basis of n-connected open sets, and the porperty, which says that for all , “small” maps from the -sphere contract using “small” homotopies of “relatively the … Continue reading

Local n-connectivity vs. the LC^n Property, Part I

I’m going to take a little break from the topologized fundamental group series for a bit. That’s a long series and a distraction might be nice. Right now, I’m going to share a little about a property I’ve been running … Continue reading

Topologized Fundamental Groups: The Quotient Topology Part 4 (Subgroup Classifications)

This is the last in a sequence of posts about the quotient topology. This one is about how the topological structure of can be used to classify certain generalizations of covering maps for locally complicated spaces. Sometimes it still amazes … Continue reading
