It occurs throughout abstract algebra, particularly in group theory, ring theory, and linear algebra. If two elements commute, their commutator is trivial. More generally, the commutator describes the obstruction to exchanging the order of two operations. Commutators are fundamental in the study of noncommutative structures and in the construction of i...")

Specifically, a homotopy between two functions is a continuous map that, for each point in the domain, provides a path from its image under the first function to its image under the second.

Specifically, for any two distinct points, there exist disjoint open sets containing each point.
