Topology Change from Pointlike Sources
Yasha Neiman, David O'Connell
In this paper we study topology-changing spacetimes occurring from pointlike sources. Following an old idea of Penrose, we will opt for a non-Hausdorff model of topology change in…
A Non-Hausdorff de Rham Cohomology
David O'Connell
In this paper we introduce and study the basic properties of de Rham cohomology for a certain class of non-Hausdorff manifolds. After a careful discussion of non-Hausdorff differen…
Vector Bundles over non-Hausdorff Manifolds
David O'Connell
In this paper we generalise the theory of real vector bundles to a certain class of non-Hausdorff manifolds. In particular, it is shown that every vector bundle fibred over these n…
Non-Hausdorff Manifolds via Adjunction Spaces
David O'Connell
In this paper we will introduce and develop a theory of adjunction spaces which allows the construction of non-Hausdorff topological manifolds from standard Hausdorff ones. This is…
