Let \( {S}^{r} \) denote the \( r \) -sphere. Then \( {\pi }_{1}\left( {S}^{1}\right) \cong \mathbb{Z} \), while \( {S}^{r} \) is simply-connected if \( r \geq 2 \) .

The space \( \mathbb{R} \) is contractible and hence simply-connected, so it is the universal covering space. If we give \( {S}^{1} \s...

Corollary 11.3.2. There exists a point \( x \in M \) such that \( G \cdot x \) is closed in \( M \).
Let \( y \in M \) and let \( Y \) be the closure of \( G \cdot y \).

First assume \( \varphi : A \rightarrow B \) is a monomorphism.

If \( M \) is a compact surface with non-empty boundary then each path component of \( \partial M \) is a circle, and if \( C \) is one of those circles then the space obtained from \( M \) by attaching a 2-cell using as attaching map an embedding \( {S}^{1} \rightarrow M \) whose image is \( C \) is again a surface.

Theorem 7. For spaces, connectivity is preserved by surjective mappings. That is, if \( \left\lbrack {X,\mathcal{O}}\right\rbrack \) is connected, and \( f : X \rightarrow Y \) is a mapping, then \( \left\lbrack {Y,{\mathcal{O}}^{\prime }}\right\rbrack \) is connected.
Suppose not. Then \( Y = U \cup V \), where \( U \) and \( V \) are disjoint, open, and nonempty. Therefore \( X = {f}^{-1}\left( U\right) \cup {f}^{-1}\left( V\right) \), and the latter sets are disjoint, open, and nonempty, which is impossible.

Proposition 11.2.4. Let \( \mathcal{C} \) be \( R \) -modules or Groups. Let \( Z \) be an object of \( \mathcal{C} \) and let \( {g}_{\alpha } : {X}_{\alpha } \rightarrow Z \) be a homomorphism for each \( \alpha \in \mathcal{A} \), such that \( {g}_{\alpha } = {g}_{\beta } \circ {f}_{\beta }^{\alpha } \) whenever \( ...

Proposition 9.2.1. Let \( \mathcal{A} \) (respectively, \( {\mathcal{A}}^{\prime } \) ) be the subalgebra of \( \operatorname{End}\left( Y\right) \) generated by \( \rho \left( K\right) \) (respectively, \( \rho \left( {K}^{\prime }\right) \) ). The following are equivalent:
The implication (2) \( \Rightarrow \) (1) follows directly from Theorem 4.2.1. Now assume that (1) holds and suppose \( {m}_{\pi ,{\pi }^{\prime }} = 1 \) for some pair \( \left( {\pi ,{\pi }^{\prime }}\right) \) . The \( {\pi }^{\prime } \) -isotypic subspace of \( Y \) (viewed as a \( {K}^{\prime } \) -module) is \( ...

Theorem 2.2. A field extension \( K \) of a field \( F \) is separable if and only if, for every field \( L \) containing \( F \), the tensor product \( K{ \otimes }_{F}L \) has no non-zero nilpotent element.
Proof. First, suppose that \( K \) is separable over \( F \), and let \( u \) be a nilpotent element of \( K{ \otimes }_{F}L \) . We shall prove that \( u = 0 \) . Clearly, there is a field \( {K}_{1} \) between \( F \) and \( K \) that is finitely field-generated over \( F \) and such that \( u \) belongs to the canon...
