Algebraic Topology Series: Understanding the Fundamental Group as a Group 🧠

Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOROtRhtegr7DmeMyFxfKxsljAVsAn_X4 We recall the definition of the fundamental group develop in the previous lecture then prove that it is indeed a group. Finally, we show that the fundamental group of the circle is isomorphic to Z, the integers. Presented by Anthony Bosman, PhD.
