Main Body
1: Structured Description
Here is the rules of Structured Description.
Entities:
\( T'\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological spaces }\}\)
\(*T\): \(\subseteq T'\), with the subspace topology
//
Conditions:
\(\exists f: T' \to T (f \in \{\text{ the deformation retractions }\})\)
//
2: Natural Language Description
For any topological space, \(T'\), any subspace, \(T \subseteq T'\), such that there is a deformation retraction, \(f: T' \to T\)
