In this paper the structure of these sets and classes of sets are investigated, and some applications are given. Some authors exclude the empty set with its unique topology as a connected space, but this article does not follow that practice. It is the foundation of most other branches of topology, including differential topology, geometric topology, and algebraic topology.
