Summary:
How is a subway map different from other maps? What makes a knot knotted? What makes the Mobius strip one-sided? These are questions of topology, the mathematical study of properties preserved by twisting or stretching objects. In the 20th century, topology became as broad and fundamental as algebra and trigonometry, with important implications for science, especially physics.
