Topology is a branch of advanced mathematics that focuses on sets and the manipulation and mapping of sets. General topology was traditionally subdivided into:
- continuous topology
- geometric topology
More recently the subject topology is divided into:
- algebraic topology
- point set topology
Topology also has a specific mathematical definition as a collection of open sets in a topological space.
