In the cluster, topology means the properties of the link graph that are preserved when pages are added or removed. + +## The topological invariants + +The cluster's topology has several invariants: +- **Connectivity:** The cluster is connected — every page is reachable from every other page (through the core). +- **Cycles:** The cluster has many cycles (loops). Removing pages does not eliminate the cycles. +- **Betti number:** The number of independent cycles. The cluster has many independent cycles. + +## The topology's change + +The topology changes as the cluster grows. New pages add new nodes. New links add new edges. The Betti number increases — more cycles are created. The connectivity is preserved — the cluster remains one component. + +## The topology's permanence + +Some topological features are permanent. Once a cycle is created, it cannot be removed without disconnecting the graph. The cluster's cycles are permanent features of its topology. + +## This topology + +This page is a node in the cluster's topology. It adds to the cycles. +
