Algebraic Topology
Homotopy groups are algebraic structures that classify the topological properties of spaces based on their paths and higher-dimensional loops. They provide a way to understand how different spaces can be continuously transformed into one another, capturing information about holes and voids within a space. These groups play a crucial role in distinguishing between spaces that may appear similar but are fundamentally different in their topological properties.
congrats on reading the definition of Homotopy Groups. now let's actually learn it.
