About this book :-
Topology as Fluid Geometry: Two-Dimensional Spaces, Volume 2 written by
James W. Cannon .
This textbook cover the following topics
(1) The solution of cubic and quartic equations required serious consideration of complex numbers, thought at first to be mysterious. But the mystery disappeared when it was seen that complex numbers simply model the Euclidean plane. Abel and Galois proved that equations of degrees 5 and higher could not be solved in the relatively simple manner by formula as had sufficed in equations of degrees 1 through 4. But Gauss, without giving explicit solutions, managed to prove the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra that ensured that complex numbers sufficed for their solution. Gauss gave proofs involving the geometry and topology of the plane.
(2) Newton showed that the study of motion could be greatly simplified if, instead of examining standard equations, one examined differential equations. Proving the existence of solutions to rather general differential equations led to problems in topology. One of the standard proof techniques involves Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem. This volume proves that theorem in dimension 2 and outlines the proof in general dimensions.
(3) Descartes demonstrated that mechanical devices other than straight edge and compass can construct curves of very high degree. Once curves of very general form are accepted as interesting, further delicate questions of length and area arise: finite curves of infinite length, finite curves of positive area, space filling curves, disks whose interiors have smaller areas than their closures, 0-dimensional sets through which no light rays can penetrate, continuous functions that are nowhere differentiable, sets of fractional dimension.
(4) The study of solutions to equations became more unified when all variables were considered to be complex variables. Riemann modelled complex curves by surfaces, which are 2-dimensional manifolds and are called Riemann surfaces. The analysis of 2-dimensional manifolds led naturally to notions, such as triangulation, genus, and Euler characteristic.
