Rn - X has, at most, 2 connected components.

Points in the same connected component have the same winding number. STEP TWO Degree is invariant under homotopy. Homotopy between directional maps.

THEOREM

JORDAN BROUWER SEPARATION THEOREM

We’ve shown that a simple, closed curve in Rn can be separated into an “inside” and “outside,” which can be identified by the mod 2 winding number.

  • The idea of a direction map is seen in the proof of other theorems.

Ex: Poincare-Hopf Theorem

  • Really interesting results from counting points!
  • Thank you Artur for the past two semesters in the Directed Reading Program!
