{{Short description|Concept in topology}}
In mathematics, '''topological complexity''' of a [[topological space]] ''X'' (also denoted by TC(''X'')) is a [[topological invariant]] closely connected to the [[motion planning]] problem{{elucidate|date=July 2012}}, introduced by Michael Farber in 2003.

*If <math>F(\R^m,n)</math> is the [[Configuration space (mathematics)|configuration space]] of ''n'' distinct points in the Euclidean ''m''-space, then
