abbrev CWComplex (X : Type u_1) [TopologicalSpace X] :
Type (u_1 + 1)

A CW-complex structure on a topological space X, identified with a CW-complex structure on the universe set Set.univ : Set X from mathlib's Topology.CWComplex.

Instances For
    @[reducible, inline]

    The indexing type of n-cells in a CW-complex X. These are the cells $A_n$ appearing in the attaching pushout for $\mathrm{Sk}_n X$.

    Instances For
      @[reducible, inline]

      The n-skeleton $\mathrm{Sk}_n X$ of a CW-complex, defined for n : ℕ∞. This is the subspace obtained by attaching all cells of dimension at most n, as in Definition 14.5.

      Instances For

        A CW-complex is finite-dimensional (Definition 14.7) if there is some n beyond which there are no cells, i.e., $\mathrm{Sk}_n X = X$ for some n.

        Instances For

          A CW-complex is of finite type (Definition 14.7) if each set of n-cells $A_n$ is finite.

          Instances For

            A CW-complex is finite (Definition 14.7) if it is both finite-dimensional and of finite type. Equivalently, it has only finitely many cells in total.

              Type (max (max (u_4 + 1) (u_5 + 1)) (u_6 + 1))

              A bundle of the three properties of CW-complexes stated in Theorem 14.8: every CW-complex is Hausdorff, compactness is equivalent to finiteness, and every compact smooth manifold admits a CW-structure.

              Instances For

                Theorem 14.8 (first part): every CW-complex is Hausdorff.

                Theorem 14.8 (second part): a CW-complex is compact if and only if it is finite.

                Theorem 14.8 (third part): every compact smooth manifold admits a CW-structure.

                Instances For

                  Packaging Theorem 14.8 into the CWComplexProperties structure, combining the Hausdorff property, the compactness/finiteness equivalence, and CW-structures on compact smooth manifolds.
