Kline sphere characterization

In mathematics, a Kline sphere characterization, named after John Robert Kline, is a topological characterization of a two-dimensional sphere in terms of what sort of subset separates it. Its proof was one of the first notable accomplishments of R. H. Bing; Bing gave an alternate proof using in his paper Complementary domains of continuous curves A simple closed curve in a two-dimensional sphere (for instance, its equator) separates the sphere into two pieces upon removal. If one removes a pair of points from a sphere, however, the remainder is connected. Kline's sphere characterization states that the converse is true: If a nondegenerate locally connected metric continuum is separated by any simple closed curve but by no pair of points, then it is a two-dimensional sphere.

How do you find the surface area of a sphere

👉 Learn how to find the volume and the surface area of a sphere. A sphere is a perfectly round 3-dimensional object. It is an object with the shape of a round ball. The distance from the center of a sphere to any point on its surface is called the radius of the sphere. A sphere has a unifo

Alessandra Sarti: Topics on K3 surfaces - Lecture 3: Basic properties of K3 surfaces

Abstract: Aim of the lecture is to give an introduction to K3 surfaces, that are special algebraic surfaces with an extremely rich geometry. The most easy example of such a surface is the Fermat quartic in complex three-dimensional space. The name K3 was given by André Weil in 1958 in hono
