There are various generalizations of Hopf’s brilliant theorem, which may be stated, as newly formulated by Alexandroff; all the homotopy classes of the mappings of a compact Hausdorff space X with dim X≦n into an n-sphere Sn are in a (1-1) -correspondence with the elements of the n-dimensional Čech cohomology group Hn(X) with integer coefficients.
