Home / All Definitions / Topology / Wild Point Definition
For any point (P) on the boundary of an ordinary ball, find a neighborhood of P for which the intersection with the ball's boundary cuts the neighborhood into two sections, each homeomorphic to a ball. A wild point is a point on the boundary that has no such neighborhood.
