Let be a topological space, let , and let . A chart of dimension on , modeled on the closed upper half-space, is a pair with the following properties.
- .
- If denotes the half-space from the definition of the closed upper half-space, then there exists a subset that is open in .
- is a bijection.
- The map is continuous, where carries the subspace topology from and carries the subspace topology from .
- The inverse map is continuous for the same topologies.
The set is called the chart domain, and is called the chart map.
