A topological manifold of dimension n is a metrizable space (a second-countable Hausdorff space) locally homeomorphic to Rn (or an open ball thereof).
Parametrization, chart, atlas.
Embedding theorem : Every manifold of dimension n can be embedded in R2n+1

One important special case is the connected sum of manifolds of identical dimensions, off a given pair of points. This is done by cutting off a small enough manifold homeomorphic to a ball around both points and gluing together the two boundaries so created.

Connected sums | Disc theorem (1960) | Richard S. Palais (1931-)
A smooth curve g in a smooth manifold M is, by definition, a C¥ function from R (or any interval thereof) to M.
What's traditionally called the tangent vector to g at point g at point p = g at point g(0) is best defined as the linear form (formally called the directional derivative operator along g at point p) which maps any form of f of C¥(M) to the scalar ( f o g)'(0).

Two curves which have the same tangent vector at a given point are said to be tangent to each other.

Loosely speaking, a topological manifold is a topological space which is locally homeomorphic to a d-dmensional Euclideam space.
Formally, a paracompact Hausdorff space M is a d-dimensional (topolological) manifold when every point x of M possesses an open neighborhood homeomorphic to a subset of Rd.
