  • In this video I formalise the concept of a (topological) manifold. We will see that a manifold is a topological space which we have 'covered' in charts. A chart is an open subset of the manifold along with a chart map which maps the chart into R^d.
    These charts can be interpreted as giving a way to talk about the points of an abstract topological space using concrete coordinates. I briefly allude to the notion of changing coordinates using a transition function (discussed in more detail in the next video).

    It's a shame the algorithm hasn't noticed your channel yet. This videos are serving as a crash course for my differential geometry class and have improved my understanding quite a bit. Good job!

    I just want to say that this is simply EXCELLENT - by far the best explanation of manifolds I've encountered.Please keep going. My goal is to understand General Relativity and for that I need to master vector calculus and this is a wonderful step along the way. Thank you very much. Subscribed.

    Holy cow, I just found your channel and this is quite the gold mine. I was trying to understand manifolds for their applications in machine learning. It is crazy how little math people take in engineering.
    Keep it up!

    When you say that the charts are subsets of r2 in this example, are they unique subsets? The blue point you drew exists in both charts but does it have different coordinate values in those charts? Does this mean that point's coordinate values of a specific chart are only meaningful in relation to other points in the same chart ie in the same open set on the manifold used in the mapping function to the chart?

    Hi :) Your video series was incredibly helpful in my research, and I thank you for the quality content. Can you please refer us to either a book or scholarly work which we could use as reference for the concepts and equations you have shown us throughout? Thank you!

    The existence of a map(-ping) for the open space U at p, how can it be given? Also Is it possible to do this with one map and the open set covering all of the manifold? What is the role of those abstract points in the manifold in this (trying to create one map covering it all), why abstract in the first place?

    Do you ever consider doing book reviews? There are some of us self--studying while not in college. I have vague ideas what books students in college are reading.
