Abstract
Topology emerged as a separate branch of mathematics at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century as a result of efforts to deal with convergence problems, to lay the foundations of real analysis and functional analysis, and to understand the geometric aspects of complex analysis. The main contributions were made in Western Europe, especially by Bernhard Riemann, Georg Cantor, Jules Henri Poincaré and Felix Hausdorff.
