Definition: Manifold
A topological Hausdorff space \(M\) is called an \(n\)-dimensional (topological) manifold, if there exist an open cover \[M=\bigcup _{i\in I}U_{i}\] with the property that each \(U_{i}\) is homeomorphic to an open subset of the \(n\)-dimensional metric space or real numbers \(\mathbb {R} ^{n}\).
