13Connected space — For other uses, see Connection (disambiguation). Connected and disconnected subspaces of R² The green space A at top is simply connected whereas the blue space B below is not connected …
14Homotopy groups of spheres — In the mathematical field of algebraic topology, the homotopy groups of spheres describe how spheres of various dimensions can wrap around each other. They are examples of topological invariants, which reflect, in algebraic terms, the structure… …
15K-theory (physics) — In string theory, the K theory classification refers to a conjectured application of K theory (in abstract algebra and algebraic topology) to superstrings, to classify the allowed Ramond Ramond field strengths as well as the charges of stable D… …
16List of algebraic structures — In universal algebra, a branch of pure mathematics, an algebraic structure is a variety or quasivariety. Abstract algebra is primarily the study of algebraic structures and their properties. Some axiomatic formal systems that are neither… …
17Satellite knot — In the mathematical theory of knots, a satellite knot is a knot which contains an incompressible, non boundary parallel torus in its complement [Colin Adams, The Knot Book: An Elementary Introduction to the Mathematical Theory of Knots , (2001),… …
18Category of rings — In mathematics, the category of rings, denoted by Ring, is the category whose objects are rings (with identity) and whose morphisms are ring homomorphisms (preserving the identity). Like many categories in mathematics, the category of rings is… …
19John R. Stallings — John Robert Stallings is a mathematician known for his seminal contributions to geometric group theory and 3 manifold topology. Stallings is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Mathematics and the University of California at Berkeley. [… …
