Straight Line Homotopy Sign Video

No video uploaded yet.

Definition

Let f and g be any two maps of a space X into R^2. It is easy to see that f and g are homotopic; the map F(x, t) = (1-t)f(x) + tg(x) is a homotopy between them. It is called a straight-line homotopy because it moves the point f(x) to the point g(x) along the straight-line segment joining them.
