In topology, a field of mathematics, the join of two topological spaces ''A'' and ''B'', often denoted by , is defined to be the quotient space : where ''I'' is the interval (1 ) and ''R'' is the equivalence relation generated by : : At the endpoints, this collapses to and to . Intuitively, is formed by taking the disjoint union of the two spaces and attaching a line segment joining every point in ''A'' to every point in ''B''. ==Properties== * The join is homeomorphic to sum of cartesian products of cones over spaces and spaces itself, where sum is taken over cartesian product of spaces: : * Given basepointed CW complexes (''A'',''a''0) and (''B'',''b''0), the "reduced join" : is homeomorphic to the reduced suspension : of the smash product. Consequently, since is contractible, there is a homotopy equivalence : 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Join (topology)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
