[DOWNLOAD] Topology Illustrated by Peter Saveliev ~ Book PDF Kindle ePub Free

Algebraic topology is the main subject of this book that initially follows a two-semester first course in topology. It furthermore takes the reader to more advanced parts of algebraic topology as well as some applications: the shape of the universe, configuration spaces, digital image analysis, data analysis, social choice, exchange economy. An overview of discrete calculus is also included (extended presentation in Calculus Illustrated. Volume 1: Precalculus). The book contains over 1000 color illustrations and over 1000 exercises. The spreadsheets for the simulations and other supplementary material are found at the author's website.CONTENTSChapter 1. Cycles1. Topology around us2. Homology classes3. Topology of graphs4.
