Web Sites for Teaching Graduate Algebra, Geometry or Topology

Electronic Journals (full articles)

Encyclopedia of Combinatorial Structures, by Stéphanie Petit at Institut National des Sciences Appliquées.
This is modeled after Sloan's On-Line Encyclopedia (see below).

Fibonacci Numbers, by David L. Schweizer at Holy Cross.
This contains postscript notes for 14 lectures that comprise an entire course on Fibonacci numbers, taught in 1995.

KnotPlot Site, by Robert Scharein at University of British Columbia.
This is a "visual exploration of mathematical knots" (with a short definition and description of knot theory provided). Besides a gallery, there are movies and VRML choices. If you want to surf this subject, go to Knots on the Web, by Peter Suber. This has many links in 6 sections: Knot Tying, Knot Theory, Knot Art, Knot Software, Knot Books, and Knot Gallery. Also see this Knot Theory site, which has a glossary. If you have a VRML viewer, visit Ideal Knots (java also available for same knots) and the Math Zoo. A fairly low level site has recently emerged.

The Magma System for Algebra, Number Theory and Geometry, by J.J. Cannon at University of Sydney.
This is designed to solve computationally hard problems in algebra, number theory, geometry and combinatorics.

Sloane's On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, from AT&T.
This is the electronic version of the classic book, Handbook of Integer Sequences, by N.J.A. Sloane, with search and browse functions.

Topology Course Lecture Notes, by Aisling McCluskey and Brian McMaster at York University.
This has 5 chapters: Fundamental Concepts, Topological Properties, Convergence, Product Spaces, and Separation Axioms. These are online in HTML, but the entire set of notes is put into a postscript file. It is part of the Topology Atlas.
