point-set topology
Also known as general topology, a branch of topology concerned with how to put a structure on a set in such a way as to generalize the idea of continuity for maps from the real numbers to itself. A topology on a set X is a certain set of so-called open subsets of the set X which satisfy various axioms. The set X together with this topology is called a topological space.
