What is "topological"

Usage examples of "topological".

Not everyone who has worked in it, for instance, has been blasted by this topological voyeur killer, Michael Dalke.

DEUS explained this truly remarkable coincidence with sophisticated topological analysis, using the transfinite derivatives of ergodics.

QGT as a topological redescription of some basic results in category theory--a mathematical setting in which the Sarumpaet rules appeared as natural and inevitable as the rules of arithmetic.

One of them, Schiller Mann, is noted for not only dissuading Merced during his early years, but also for having nearly dissuaded the mathematician Udo Raleigh, who made major contributions to topological statistics, from a career in mathematics.

Behind the creeper two trailers followed, one containing reserve supplies, and the other automatic mapping and prospecting equipment such as magnetometers, radar topological plotters, laser-spectroscope samplers, et cetera.

And the problem itself was not simply a numerical exercise, but - as far as Celestine could say with any certainty - a problem about topological transformations in four dimensions.

Pure topological theory might prove the existence of a decomposition series, but actually forcing a ship through that series required massive linear programming optimizations, all performed in realtime with no second chances for mistakes.

I achieved only this: I proved that using the apparatus of the topological and transformational algebras would NOT enable one to solve the problem.

Whereas the surrounding temperature determines the phase in which water will exist, the topological form—the shape—of the extra Calabi-Yau dimensions determines whether certain physical configurations within string theory appear as black holes or elementary particles.

They were caught in a subspace loop, perpetually decomposing and reforming in a sequence which preserved topological properties but which made no progress towards the escape sequence leading to Central subspace.

At a meticulously calculated moment, she dropped from highspace in a burst of blue-shifted photons and a crawling, twisting effect as local space momentarily assumed the topological characteristics of a Klein bottle.

The seven compactified dimensions were rolled into the topological equivalent of tight tubes, with diameters well within the Planck length, the quantum limit to measurement of size.

I assure you, however, I have accurately mapped the topological surface density and transitional energy gradients of the timeline in question.

The trend was at first so minor that we could not be sure it existed, for all social trends are intermixed with other social trends, snarled together like a plate of spaghetti-worse than that, for it takes an abstract topological space of many dimensions (ten or twelve are not uncommon and hardly adequate) to describe mathematically the interplay of social forces.

At least two conflicting generalised measures can be applied to T, the space of all topological spaces with countable basis.
