# Math4202 Topology II (Lecture 1)
## Topology of manifolds
### Fundamental groups
Use fundamental group as invariant for topological spaces up to homeomorphism (exists bijective and continuous map with continuous inverse) / homotopy equivalence.
Classifying two dimensional surfaces.
- Sphere
- Torus
- $\mathbb{R}P^2$
## Quotient spaces
Let $X$ be a topological space and $f:X\to Y$ is a continuous, surjective map. WIth the property that $U\subset Y$ is open if and only if $f^{-1}(U)$ is open in $X$, we say $f$ is a quotient map and $Y$ is a quotient space.
