Topological conjugacy — In mathematics, two functions are said to be topologically conjugate to one another if there exists a homeomorphism that will conjugate the one into the other. Topological conjugacy is important in the study of iterated functions and more… … Wikipedia
Equivalence of metrics — In the study of metric spaces in mathematics, there are various notions of two metrics on the same underlying space being the same , or equivalent.In the following, M will denote a non empty set and d {1} and d {2} will denote two metrics on… … Wikipedia
Topological space — Topological spaces are mathematical structures that allow the formal definition of concepts such as convergence, connectedness, and continuity. They appear in virtually every branch of modern mathematics and are a central unifying notion. The… … Wikipedia
Topological indistinguishability — In topology, two points of a topological space X are topologically indistinguishable if they have exactly the same neighborhoods. That is, if x and y are points in X, and A is the set of all neighborhoods which contain x, and B is the set of all… … Wikipedia
Equivalence relation — In mathematics, an equivalence relation is a binary relation between two elements of a set which groups them together as being equivalent in some way. Let a , b , and c be arbitrary elements of some set X . Then a b or a ≡ b denotes that a is… … Wikipedia
