Subject: non-Hausdoff topology
Date: Wed, 7 Jul 2010 09:31:15 +0100 (BST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1OWUJr-0001sQ-5a@mailserv.mta.ca> (raw)

Non-Hausdorff topologies, in particular the Scott topology, have been
one of the most important features of mathematics applied to computer
science over the past forty years.

Surely it is now time for this material to be included in the standard
undergraduate curriculum for general topology in pure mathematics
degree programmes.

I wonder whether "categories" reader have some comments on their
experience of trying to do this?   I am thinking of the possible
reactions from both students and colleagues.
