| Jul 3, 2010 at 23:06 | comment | added | Jeff | Hi, I am assuming you mean that the special point at which one can attach these two cones to get a noncontractible space is the limit point, 0. But it seems to me that any which way you attach these two spaces, you will get a contractible space. I believe this to be true because both cones are themselves contractible, and so I can contract one first, and then the other. It is because these cones are a subset of R^2 that I can contract one first, and then the other. For instance, this process works to contract the space shown on the cover of the book you suggested. Thanks for your response | |
