When you look around the universe you live in, it looks like a 3D space, just like the surface of the Earth looks like a 2D space. However, just like the Earth, if you were to look at the universe ...

The surface of a torus (the shape of our breakfast donut), for example, offers another perspective of what a 2D space could be. Mathematicians, through geometric topology, explore these spaces in ...
