Abstract

This chapter discusses briefly a number of other topics which played a role in the theory of manifolds, and complex geometry in particular, towards the end of the nineteenth century. These include the theory of sets by Cantor, the work of Klein and Lie on transformation groups, and the work of Poincaré on algebraic topology.
