Metric balls • Open ball: • Closed ball: Euclidean ball L1 ball L ball
Topology A set is open if for any there exists such that • Empty set is open • Union of any number of open sets is open • Finite intersection of open sets is open A set, whose compliment is open is called closed Collection of all open sets in is called topology The metric induces a topology through the definition of open sets Topology can be defined independently of a metric through an axiomatic definition of an open set
Topological spaces A set together with a set of subsets of form a topological space if • Empty set and are both in • Union of any collection of sets in is also in • Intersection of a finite number of sets in is also in is called a topologyon The sets in are called open sets The metric induces a topology through the definition of open sets
Connectedness The space is connected if it cannot be divided into two disjoint nonempty closed sets, and disconnected otherwise Connected Disconnected Stronger property: path connectedness
Compactness The space is compact if any open covering has a finite subcovering Finite Infinite For a subset of Euclidean space, compact = closed and bounded (finite diameter)
Convergence A sequence converges to (denoted ) if for any open set containing exists such that for all for all exists such that for all Topological definition Metric definition
Continuity A function is called continuous if for any open set , preimage is also open. for all exists s.t. for all satisfying it follows that Topological definition Metric definition
Properties of continuous functions • Map limits to limits, i.e., if , then • Map open sets to open sets • Map compact sets to compact sets • Map connected sets to connected sets Continuity is a local property: a function can be continuous at one point and discontinuous at another
Homeomorphisms A bijective (one-to-one and onto) continuous function with a continuous inverse is called a homeomorphism Homeomorphisms copy topology – homeomorphic spaces are topologically equivalent Torus and cup are homeomorphic

Lipschitz continuity A function is called Lipschitz continuous if there exists a constant such that for all . The smallest possible is called Lipschitz constant Lipschitz continuous function does not change the distance between any pair of points by more than times Lipschitz continuity is a global property For a differentiable function
Bi-Lipschitz continuity A function is called bi-Lipschitz continuous if there exists a constant such that for all
Examples of Lipschitz continuity 0 1 0 1 0 1 Continuous, not Lipschitz on [0,1] Lipschitz on [0,1] Bi-Lipschitz on [0,1]
Isometries A bi-Lipschitz function with is called distance-preserving or an isometric embedding A bijective distance-preserving function is called isometry Isometries copy metric geometries – two isometric spaces are equivalent from the point of view of metric geometry
Dilation Maximum relative change of distances by a function is called dilation Dilation is the Lipschitz constant of the function Almost isometry has
Distortion Maximum absolute change of distances by a function is called distortion Almost isometry has
Groups A set with a binary operation is called a group if the following properties hold: • Closure: for all • Associativity: for all • Identity element: such that for all • Inverse element: for any , such that
Examples of groups Integers with addition operation • Closure: sum of two integers is an integer • Associativity: • Identity element: • Inverse element: Non-zero real numbers with multiplication operation • Closure: product of two non-zero real numbers is a non-zero real number • Associativity: • Identity element: • Inverse element:
Self-sometries A function is called a self-isometry if for all Set of all self-isometries of is denoted by with the function composition operation is a group • Closure is a self-isometry for all • Associativity from definition of function composition • Identity element • Inverse element (exists because isometries are bijective)
