https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral%20subgroup
In algebraic topology, a peripheral subgroup for a space-subspace pair X ⊃ Y is a certain subgroup of the fundamental group of the complementary space, π1(X − Y). Its conjugacy class is an invariant of the pair (X,Y). That is, any homeomorphism (X, Y) → (X′, Y′) induces an isomorphism π1(X − Y) → π1(X′ − Y′) taking ...
