Dendroid (topology)

Dendroid, in the context of topology, refers to a specific type of topological space that is similar to the structure of a tree but can be generalized in various ways. Generally, a dendroid is a locally connected, compact, non-empty, continuum that is also a dendritic (tree-like) structure. Key characteristics of dendroids include: 1. **Locally Connected**: Every point within a dendroid has a neighborhood base consisting of connected sets.
