Topology of SO(3) For Kids

Orlin Stoytchev

We present a simple visual description of the topology of the space of three-dimensional rotations, requiring just intuition, imagination and no advanced math.

From Foucault's Pendulum to the Gauss--Bonnet Theorem

Orlin Stoytchev

We present a self-contained proof of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for two-dimensional surfaces embedded in $R^{3}$ using just classical vector calculus. The exposition should be accessib…

The Fundamental Group of $S O (n)$ Via Quotients of Braid Groups

Ina Hajdini, Orlin Stoytchev

We describe an algebraic proof of the well-known topological fact that $π_{1} (S O (n)) ≅ Z /2 Z$ . The fundamental group of $S O (n)$ appears in our approach as the center of a certain…
