This lecture explores the concept of connected sum of surfaces, focusing on the sum of a torus and RP2. Starting from polygonal presentations, the instructor explains the process step by step, highlighting the homeomorphism between the resulting surface and the sphere. The lecture also covers the implications of the connected sum for different surface types.
