Now argue as before: the quotient map is injective on $\ol{B_\delta(P)}$ and homeomorphism on its interior. If $p \in \operatorname{edge}(P)$: \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.6\linewidth] {images/6e27ba869ca211ed.png} \end{center} Say $p = (0, y_0) \sim (1, y_0) = p'$. Take $\delta$ small enough so half discs of radius $\delta$ as shown don't meet the vertices. Define a map as \[ (x, y) \mapsto \begin{cases} (x, y - y_0) & \text{on $U$} \\ (x - 1, y - y_0) & \text{on $V$} \end{cases} \] Recall: If $X = A \cup B$, $A$, $B$ closed and $f \colon A \to Y$ and $g \colon B \to Y$ are continuous, and $g |_{A \cap B} = g|_{A \cap B}$ then they define a continuous map on $X$. \myskip $f_u$ and $f_V$ are continuous on $U, V \subset [0, 1]^2$, they induce continuous maps on $q_U$ and $q_V$. ($q \colon [0, 1]^2 \to [0, 1]^2 / \sim$). In $T^2$, $\half$ discs, $q_U$ and $q_V$ overlap, but our maps agree as they are compatible with the equivalence relation. So $f_U$ and $f_V$ ``glue'' to give a continuous map on an open neighbourhood of $[p] \in T^2$ to $\RR^2$. Now the ``usual argument'' (pass to closed disc, use Topological Inverse Function Theorem pass back to interior) shows that if $[p] \in T^2$ lies in $\operatorname{edge}(P)$, it has a neighbourhood homeomorphic to a disc. \myskip Finally at a vertex of $[0, 1]^2$ \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.6\linewidth] {images/201475309ca411ed.png} \end{center} and analogously we get that a vertex has a neighbourhood homeomorphic to a sic and $[0, 1]^2 / \sim$ is a \emph{topological surface}. \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.6\linewidth] {images/b6bb7f929ca411ed.png} \end{center} For a general polygon: \emph{similar idea}. Same situation as $T^2$ for interior points and points on edges. How about vertices? \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.6\linewidth] {images/1312e4249ca511ed.png} \end{center} If $v \in \operatorname{vertex}(P)$ has $k$ vertices in its equivalence class, there exist $k$ sectors in $P$. Any sector can be identified with our favourite sector (for example a quarter circle is homemorphic to a semi circle). In ($*$) we get an open disc neighbourhood of $v$ (red dots) via \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.6\linewidth] {images/5f364d969ca511ed.png} \end{center} If we have $k = 1$, we must have either \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.6\linewidth] {images/7ed8bf629ca511ed.png} \end{center} But this quotient space is homemorphic to $D^2 \subset \RR^2$. These open neighbourhoods of points in $P / \sim$ show that $P$ is locally homeomorphic to a disc. \myskip Exercise: Check that $P / \sim$ is Hausdorff and second countable. \item Connected sums: Given topological surfaces $\Sigma_1$ and $\Sigma_2$ we can remove an open disc from each and glue the resulting boundary circles \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.8\linewidth] {images/0fe3a0d49ca711ed.png} \end{center} Explicitly take $\Sigma_1 \setminus D_1 \ci \Sigma_2 \setminus D_2$ and impose a quotient relation $\theta \in \partial D_1 \sim \theta \in \partial D_2$ where $\theta$ parametrisation. $S' = \partial D_i$, $\partial D_i$ is the boundary of $\partial D_i$. The result $\Sigma_1 \# \Sigma_2$ is called the connected sum of $\Sigma_1$ and $\Sigma_2$. In principle this depends on many choices and it takes some effort to prove that it is \emph{well-defined}. \begin{lemma} The connected sum $\Sigma_1 \# \Sigma_2$ is a topological surface (no proof in this course). \end{lemma} \noindent If you want to learn more: \begin{itemize} \item Introduction to topological manifolds by Jack Lee. \item Introduction to smooth manifolds by Jack Lee. \end{itemize} \end{enumerate}
