Objective

This seminar is intended for relatively advanced BSc students. The aim is to cover basic concepts of general topology (point set topology), withing 6-8 weeks, and then learn some interesting continuations of these concepts in algebraic topology, geometry of manifolds, topological dynamics, and differential topology. The main text book will be G. Bredon's "Geometry and Topology". The lectures will be delivered by the students participating in the seminar. Complementary comments will be added by graduate students and faculty who attend the seminar. The participants are expected to have read the relevant sections of Bredon's book, so that the speaker can lecture on a fast paste.
