Cantor space

In mathematics, a Cantor space, named for Georg Cantor, is a topological abstraction of the classical Cantor set: a topological space is a Cantor space if it is homeomorphic to the Cantor set. In set theory, the topological space 2ω is called "the" Cantor space. (Wikipedia).

What is a metric space? An example

This is a basic introduction to the idea of a metric space. I introduce the idea of a metric and a metric space framed within the context of R^n. I show that a particular distance function satisfies the conditions of being a metric.

What is a metric space ?

Metric space definition and examples. Welcome to the beautiful world of topology and analysis! In this video, I present the important concept of a metric space, and give 10 examples. The idea of a metric space is to generalize the concept of absolute values and distances to sets more gener

Vector spaces and subspaces

After our introduction to matrices and vectors and our first deeper dive into matrices, it is time for us to start the deeper dive into vectors. Vector spaces can be vectors, matrices, and even function. In this video I talk about vector spaces, subspaces, and the porperties of vector sp

Some Small Ideas in Math: A Set of Measure Zero Versus a Set of First Category (Meager Sets)

There are a ton of different ways to define what it means for a set to be "small". Here, we will focusing on the difference between a set of measure zero versus a set of first category by using examples to demonstrate that they are different sizing methods. Depending on the context of the

G. Walsh - Boundaries of Kleinian groups

We study the problem of classifying Kleinian groups via the topology of their limit sets. In particular, we are interested in one-ended convex-cocompact Kleinian groups where each piece in the JSJ decomposition is a free group, and we describe interesting examples in this situation. In ce
