    We introduce the notion of the degree of a map from S^n to S^n. As a nice application, we use degree to prove the Hairy Ball Theorem. Then we develop cellular homology, another homology theory equivalent to simplicial and singular homology. We show how to calculate the cellular homology of the torus and Klein bottle.
    Presented by Anthony Bosman, PhD.

    for the long exact sequence of relative homologies at 41:43, wouldn't the cellular homology be trivial if that sequence is exact?

    Amazing professor looking forward to next lecture also can we except a course on algebraic geometry??

    Lectures are amazing. is it possible to upload it fast? like 2 or 3 lectures in a week? it will be very much helpful !

    “So we’ve shown that all of these homology groups are really just direct sums of Z. But I haven’t told you what the maps d_n are yet”
    “Ok, what are the d n?”
    “deez nuts haha gottem”

      Only a total n-cell would make a joke like that.

    At 1:02:00, the klein bottle’s face e_2 is mapped to 2a + 0b and not to both simultaneously, because boundary(n cell) = sum of (degree of map times (n-1)-cell), right?

    At 1:03:42 don’t we have to set the relation equal to 0??

      Yes, since the group is abelian it is standard to use 0 for additive identity. I erred in writing 1, instead.

      Thanks for clarifying professor I was confused for 10 minutes or so 😅😅

      So if it were a multiplicative group we could have used 1??

      @@ompatel9017 as long as you're writing a^2 instead of 2a. 😉
