Topological invariants are properties of a topological space that remain unchanged under continuous deformations, such as stretching or bending, but not tearing or gluing. These invariants provide valuable insights into the intrinsic structure of the space, connecting geometry with topology, and they play a critical role in understanding various geometric concepts like curvature and cohomology.
congrats on reading the definition of Topological invariants. now let's actually learn it.
