    there was a broken pointer to “basic problems of algebraic topology” which I am removing hereby.

    (It may be interesting to have such a page, and then we can still add a link, but it is pointless to have a broken link to a non-existent such page.)

    added this quote, for fun:

    I believe that we lack another analysis properly geometric or linear which expresses location directly as algebra expresses magnitude.

    which Bredon 93, p. 430 says is due to Leibniz in a letter to Huygens 1679

    Not sure what a real source reference would be. Googling for the full quote gives another topoloy textbook that also quotes it this way, but also without further reference details
