Császár Ákos: General topology - Disquisitiones mathematicae Hungaricae 9. (Budapest, 1978)
GENERAL TOPOLOGY Á. Császár (Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest) Translation editor: P. M. Cohn (University of London) An unusually comprehensive treatment of general topology, combining an introductory course with a study of many important concepts and recent theorems that are inadequately mentioned in other texts. The author has made many fundamentally important contributions to the subject and has adopted a highly individual approach in this book by introducing proximities, uniformities, etc. from the very beginning, thus avoiding the conventional use of cardinal and ordinal numbers. Exercises are presented at the end of each section often with detailed guidance for their solution. This systematic treatise will prove useful to graduate students and to teachers of undergraduate courses. Contents: Topological spaces. Proximity and uniform spaces. Completely regular spaces. Complete and compact spaces. Extension of spaces. Product and quotient spaces. Paracompact spaces. Baire spaces. Connected spaces. Topological groups. AKADÉMIAI KIADÓ BUDAPEST
