Chart Modeled on the Closed Upper Half-Space

Statement

Let (X,T)(X,\mathcal{T}) be a topological space, let n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N}, and let U⊆XU\subseteq X. A chart of dimension nn on XX, modeled on the closed upper half-space, is a pair (U,φ)(U,\varphi) with the following properties.

  1. U∈TU\in\mathcal{T}.
  2. If HnH^n denotes the half-space from the definition of the closed upper half-space, then there exists a subset Ω⊆Hn\Omega\subseteq H^n that is open in HnH^n.
  3. φ:U→Ω\varphi:U\to\Omega is a bijection.
  4. The map φ:U→Ω\varphi:U\to\Omega is continuous, where UU carries the subspace topology from XX and Ω\Omega carries the subspace topology from HnH^n.
  5. The inverse map φ−1:Ω→U\varphi^{-1}:\Omega\to U is continuous for the same topologies.

The set UU is called the chart domain, and φ\varphi is called the chart map.
