Eschews the ``theorem-proof-remarks'' format of mathematics in favor of a more readable style commonly used in physical science. Part I develops the mathematical machinery which can serve as an analytical tool to investigate nonmetric aspects of chemical structure. Specific topics covered include set theory, lattices, graph theory, connectivity, classification of spaces, combinatorics, and functions and continuity. Part II explains the application of the above concepts to molecular structure. Chapters cover the bond topology, the graph topology, duplex spaces, and the topology of chemical reactions. Eight appendixes cover ancillary topics.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePartial table of contents:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e FINITE TOPOLOGY.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Topological Spaces.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Finite Topologies and Lattices.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Finite Topologies and Graph Theory.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Connectivity.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Classification of Topological Spaces: Separation Axioms.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Combinatorics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Functions and Continuity.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e FINITE TOPOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Topological Description of Molecular Structure.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Bond Topology.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Graph Topology.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Duplex Spaces.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Topology of Chemical Reactions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Appendixes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Bibliography.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Chemistry [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Chemistry\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Chemistry%20%5BPN%5D%22\"\u003ePN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Interscience","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52501427781912,"sku":"9780471838173","price":193.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471838173.jpg?v=1786237916","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/topological-methods-in-chemistry-hardback-9780471838173","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
