Cohomology Theory
Differential topology is the field of mathematics that focuses on the properties and structures of differentiable manifolds, which are spaces that locally resemble Euclidean space and allow for calculus to be performed. This area studies the ways in which these manifolds can be transformed and how their shapes affect their topological properties. The insights from differential topology play a crucial role in understanding advanced concepts like Pontryagin classes and cobordism theory.
