Course objectives
The course presents one of basic disciplines of modern mathematics. It naturally follows the well-known concepts of a metric space and a continuous function. It introduces topological spaces and presents their basic properties, in particular separability, connectedness and compactness. There are considered real valued continuous functions on topological spaces as well. Finally, there is proved Brouwer's fix-point theorem and there is shown how the fundamental group provides a simple proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra.
