Abstract
The reader is expected to have some background in set-theoretic pure mathematics. We assume familiarity with the concept of function f: X → Y between sets and a minimum of experience with algebra and topology, e.g. the definitions of “topological space,” “continuous mapping of topological spaces,” “group,” and “homomorphism of groups.”
