Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\( T_1\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological spaces }\}\)
\( T_2\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological spaces }\}\)
\( S\): \(\subseteq T_1\)
\(*f\): \(: T_1 \to T_2\), \(\in \{\text{ the continuous maps }\}\)
\(*f'\): \(: T_1 \to T_2\), \(\in \{\text{ the continuous maps }\}\)
//

Conditions:
\(\exists F: T_1 \times I \to T_2, \in \{\text{ the continuous maps }\}\), where \(I\) is \([0, 1] \subseteq \mathbb{R}\)
(
\(\forall p \in T_1\)
(
\(F (p, 0) = f (p)\)
\(\land\)
\(F (p, 1) = f' (p)\)
)
\(\land\)
\(\forall p \in S, \forall s \in I\)
(
\(F (p, s) = f (p) = f' (p)\)
)
).
//

\(F\) is called "relative homotopy".

\(f \simeq f' rel S\) denotes the relation.


2: Natural Language Description


For any topological spaces, \(T_1, T_2\), and any subset, \(S \subseteq T_1\), any continuous maps, \(f, f': T_1 \to T_2\), such that there is a continuous map (called "relative homotopy"), \(F: T_1 \times I \to T_2\), where \(I\) is \([0, 1] \subseteq \mathbb{R}\), such that for each \(p \in T_1\), \(F (p, 0) = f (p)\) and \(F (p, 1) = f' (p)\), and for each \(p \in S\) and each \(s \in I\), \(F (p, s) = f (p) = f' (p)\), denoted as \(f \simeq f' rel S\)
